Pros & Cons
Pros
The scales provide a lot of grip. It smooths down a bit after awhile, with out losing the necessary friction. The g10 is solid no slipping from the hand.
The sr1 is one of the best offerings from cold steel, along with the ad-10; and the mighty 4 max. It's something you can certainly depend on.
The sr1 is the most capable bang-for-your-buck folder option in its class. While heavier than your average folder, don't feel so heavy as to make it a deal breaker for edc.
Ad tri-ad lock is outstanding. Rock solid lock-up. Unbreakable. Build is perfect no blade play no rattle solid lockup.
Cons
The bevel on the cold steel writing side of the blade is horrible. Near the tip is exceptionally bad. The angle is not consistent on ether side.
My issue with this knive is simple, and it’s an issue i’ve had with cold steel products previously. Out of 8 cold steels 2 have had major flaws. But from a different seller. Sent it back.
Highlights
Quality
Lockup is solid action is smooth blade is perfectly centered grinds are clean and even
Just great qualityas long as you don’t mind bulk and heft this is a great hard use folding knife
Aggressive g10 grips positive lock and grip flat grind and brushed steel finish blade
The lock is positive and the release is in the center of the handle which makes accidental unlocking almost impossible
Price
Exactly what i was expecting in terms of size for the value
I can honestly say it is worth every penny
99 knife on the cold steel website 148
No its obvious there was something going on when you have 279
Competitiveness
On my example you see that the lock bar right corner is rounded off on the sr1 the one on the right in picture bought on amazon... Read More
There are grind angle differences but that may due to the more pronounced hollow grind on the sr1 again compared to the lite version

If your on a budget the lite version can be had for under 40 and it’s just a nice just lesser valued steel
