Cold Steel SR1 Lockback Tanto 62LA

The Cold Steel SRK (Survival Rescue Knife) has been a proud flagship blade in their line-up for over 25 years. The knife of choice for many of our brothers and sisters in the military, it remains the standard issue fixed blade of the Navy SEALs during BUDS training to this day. It's little wonder then, that when Cold Steel tasked their in-house custom knifemaker Andrew Demko with developing a high-end tactical folding knife for military application, that he took inspiration from the legendary SRK! The SR1 features Andrew's signature minimalist style, with no unnecessary flourishes or embellishments, just pure functional, no-nonsense, practical design. The SR1's heavy duty blade is made to be put to work. Crafted from 0.1875" thick American CPM-S35VN premium powdered steel, it's a heavy-duty workhorse, designed for the harshest and most unforgiving environments. A good blade needs a good handle, so the SR1's handle is made from premium G10 with heat treated nested steel liners. With an integrated lanyard hole and coarse-textured surface for a secure grip even in cold, wet conditions, and expertly contoured to allow for a comfortable and safe grip even while wearing heavy gloves. For added reliability and peace of mind, Cold Steel equipped the SR1 with their world-famous Tri-Ad locking mechanism - proven time and time again to weather even the worst abuse, with unparalleled shock and impact resistance - making this knife the ideal choice for a survival rescue blade intended for our nation's warrior elite!
