Tough enough to do the job and light enough to be handy, Cold Steel's Tuff Lite folders are there when you need them. Perfectly sized to slip into any pocket, clip to your waistband or wear around your neck on a lanyard. With the wide, hollow, ground blades they are mercilessly sharp and can shear through the toughest materials with unexpected ease. And due to their slanted points, they offer deep penetration and precision cutting potential without appearing aggressive enough to draw unwanted attention. Both the standard sized version and the mini version are bred for work and offer a surprisingly good grip due to their superbly engineered Griv-Ex handles that offer a tremendous strength to weight ratio and feature our state of the art Tri-Ad lock, which gives them astonishing muscle for their size.
Zytel Handles
A nylon polymer that is lightweight and extremely durable, Zytel can be shaped and textured to provide excellent grip.
Pocket Clip
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
Lockback
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.

Love that triad lock
Love the triad lock on an inexpensive knife. Short blade works well here in California. My smaller than average hands work well with this fine handle. Wharncliffe blade is a nice touch.

I use this for small, dirty jobs, like opening boxes and getting packaging received in the mail. it arrived very sharp, and is the right size for this job.
