Awesome EDC
I carry this muti purpose knife because it performs several tasks exceptionally well. It is an incredible defensive weapon, excellent in the bushcraft field for light to medium battling and tinder/shavings, box cutting, envelope opening, skinning, food prep, and a host of other chores. It is very comfortable with my medium size hand. The blade tension is fully adjustable and as usual, the picket clip needs adjusting. A major benefit is that the owner of this beauty can easily contour this knife to his/her preference. I carry this one AND the clip point. They are like a Custom Shop Recon1.

Received my SR1 Tanto 2 days ago from Knifecenter, and it's actually lighter than I expected. Many reviews mention how big it is, not ideal for EDC, and etc. so I thought it would be monstrous, but I was wrong - I am very satisfied with it overall with the exception of the pocket clip (I had to bend it to open it up some). The blade of it is like the fixed blade counterpart, which offers a strong profile for regular cutting and self defense applications. I can definitely open it and close it with one hand operation (not sure why someone said they couldn't). A highly recommended EDC knife for self defense and other usage. Don't worry about the weight, it's about as heavy as a iphone.

4 stars fit and finish 6 stars strenght and cool factor
Good but not perfect fit and finish (a spyderco is typically better) but it does not affect the functionnality. This knife is a tank and it is so cool. Overall it is a very special knife and it feels like it

The knife is large, heavy, tight, good feel in the hand. Good fit, finish. Absolutely no complaints. This bad boy is going to last me a long time. Thank you, Cold Steel.

I have a number of cold steel knives (4 max, lawman, ultimate Hunter, AK 47, recon). Like the triad lock and the newer blade materials. Not to thrilled with fit and finish. First cold steel had to take apart and regrind spine to make it level, regrind a crooked bevel, and round corner of locking bar (one corner at 90 deg other rounded). Also first cold steel to have the screw that holds the blade in work loose. Knife clip broke. Called to cold steel for replacement even offered to purchase new clip. Stated would send new clip. 4 weeks later and repeated calls, still no clip. Had to make a new one myself.

Pros: Blade Material
Cons: Pocket Clip
Tough MF'er
This knife is a huge, heavy beast. I got it for hard use at work. S35VN sharpens up nicely and happily takes a beating. The back lock is equally tough as nails. The tanto's tip is great for piercing and scraping, while the main edge slices and chops like Jason Voorhees. There are a couple issues that keep it from being perfect, though. Fit and finish are only so-so. The locking bar is not beveled evenly. It doesn't affect the function, but it might annoy some people. Then there's the pocket clip. Holy crap. It's RIDICULOUSLY stiff. This, plus the rough texture under it, makes the knife totally un-pocketable. I had to modify it significantly to make it work. Lucky for me, I have access to machines, but this would have been a deal breaker if I didn't. Do NOT buy this knife if you're unable to modify the pocket clip.
