Sports reviews of Cold Steel Ti-Lite Zytel Handle, 4-Inch

Customer Review: Best knife I own and my preferred EDC.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Before buying this knife I had never had an every day carry (EDC) knife with a 4" long blade and wasn't sure if I would carry it. However, from the moment I removed it from the box I was completely in love with it and it's been my preferred edc for about 2 years now over knives like the kershaw leek, spyderco endura, and sog flash II. The two best parts of this knife are:

1)Aggressive opening! The design allows the knife to deploy while drawing from your pocket if you want it to, which means you have a knife ready quicker than would with a switchblade or assisted opener. Many people actually mistake this knife for an automatic. Even just using the thumb stud with the knife out of the pocket allows it to open as quick or quicker than assisted and automatics. The liner lock is SOLID since it's folded over to contact the full width of the blade- a cold steel exclusive as far as I know. This also contributes to the intimidating sounds it makes when opening.

2)Rugged design. Boy this knife has taken a helluva beating. I've used the butt end of this knife for light hammering task without causing any damage. Part of the blade that sticks out from the other end while closed has also been useful in various prying tasks. My friend locked her keys in her car and I used this knife (closed) to pry open the door enough to get a rod inside to manipulate the lock. It takes a razor sharp edge very easily and maintains it for a long time.

Only thing I didn't like so much is the pocket clip. It's strong but presses hard against the handle and after a year or so of carrying it in the same jeans, the edge of the pocket started falling apart. All I had to do was take some pliers and bend it so it was just almost touching the handle.

Description of Cold Steel Ti-Lite Zytel Handle, 4-Inch

Ti-Lite tactical folders evoke the sleek speed and rebellious lines of the classic 1950?s-styled switchblade. Unlike most switchblades however, they are legal to carry nearly everywhere. They feature Japanese made AUS 8A stainless steel blades with a bead blast finish, razor sharp edges and sturdy, needle sharp points. The CNC milled handles are forged from super tough 7075 Aluminum billets and are given an attractive bead blast surface and finished with a protective EDP (Electric Discharge Plating) coating. And for maximum strength and safety, we have equipped our Ti-Lites with our patent pending, stainless steel leaf spring locks (proven, in our tests, to hold 130 lbs).
The Cold Steel Ti-Lite tactical folding knife evokes the sleep speed and rebellious lines of the classic 1950s-style switchblade. Unlike most switchblades, however, the Ti-Lite is legal to carry nearly everywhere. The knife is equipped with a Japanese-made AUS 8A stainless-steel blade with a bead-blast finish, razor-sharp edge, and sturdy needle-sharp point. This particular version of the knife features a Zytel handle, an affordable alternative to the Ti-Lites' traditional aluminum handle. The 43-percent glass-filled Zytel handle mimics the look of its aluminum siblings almost exactly, but is significantly less expensive. Cold Steel also added a stainless-steel leaf-spring lock and liner tested to hold up to 130 pounds, so you can rest assured that the knife won't open accidentally. The resulting knife is remarkably strong, sharp, and good looking.

The Ti-Lite is easy to carry thanks to the small steel pocket clip. To open, simply use the thumb studs or snag a quillon on the edge of your pocket as you draw your knife out.
