Cold Steel's Ti-Lite Blades/Folding Knives evoke the sleek speed and rebellious lines of the classic 1950's switchblade. Often imitated, but never equaled, the Ti-Lite (designed by the late, great Phil Boguszewski) is a masterpiece of performance and style. The Ti-Lites are equipped with Cold Steel's stainless-steel leaf spring locks (proven, in our tests, to hold upwards of 145 lbs). For ease of carry, the Ti-Lites come equipped with a small, but unobtrusive steel pocket clip, and can be opened rapidly by using the thumb studs or by snagging a quillon on the edge of your pocket as you draw your knife out. Fans of the Ti-Lite series knives are sure to be enthused by the arrival of the Kris styled blades. Available with four-inch or six-inch plain edged blades, and a six-inch serrated version. The handles are made of Griv-Ex in flat dark earth color.
I love the ti-lite line up, and have lost track of how many I've had now. The blade is beautiful and distinctive. I had to have this one to go with my voyager krisThe quillions the kris ti-lite I got actually were smoother than a lot of the classic ti-lite quillions. I usually just hit them with a file or sand paper but glad to skip that step this time lol.It's crazy sharp and I'm in love. Still baying the blade somewhat but it handles its chores very well
A great looking update for the 4" line of Ti-Lites
This new 4" Kris Ti-Lite similar to the other Ti-Lites I own. The weight is closer to the zytel version which I prefer over the slightly heavier aluminum version. The Kris version has upgraded steel and handle material over the zytel version but the main reason to get this is the serpentine blade. I was surprised by how good the Kris design looks on a 4" knife. It's a very sinister looking knife with both a thin piercing tip and a multi-curved edged for slicing. The only problems you will have with this blade, like all 4" Ti-Lites, is the aggressive quillions, aka pocket shredders, and the standard Cold Steel tight pocket clip. You can draw and open the blade in the style of an Emerson Wave but you probably don't want to do it often. It's also a liner-lock which is rare in Cold Steel but it's easy to open and close one handed. I am more than satisfied to have this as my third Ti-Lite.
