Cold Steel 1911 is a lightweight, folding knife from the famous American brand. The model is inspired by the famous classic pistol - Colt M1911, to which the name of the product directly refers. The folder will be great as an element of the urban EDC, perfectly coping with all everyday tasks.
The knife blade is made of 4034SS steel. It is a material that provides almost complete protection against corrosion. Thanks to this, the folder does not require excessive care or maintenance. It will also work well in a humid environment, such as sailing, kayaking or fishing. The 4034SS steel is easy to sharpen, making the knife well suited to typical off-road tasks.
The handle is made of durable Griv-Ex® material. The material provides good durability and a firm grip of the knife. The linings have a clear, rough texture, which directly refers to the iconic Colt M1911 linings. It guarantees a good grip of the handle even when working with wet hands or with gloves.
The blade profile is a typical clip-point, characterized by exceptional versatility. The relatively high, flat cut provides good cutting properties, and the presence of a short, false blade improves the penetration of the tip. The knife can be opened with a pin or a back-flipper. The latter element, once opened, plays the role of a prominent handguard. Thanks to it, our hand does not accidentally slip on the blade, providing additional safety. The lock used in Cold Steel 1911 is a classic linerlock in an extended version. The security differs from the traditional construction by the presence of an additional lock placed in the cladding. Thanks to this, the lock holds mainly more securely, and in addition is much more durable. The model is equipped with a wide clip. He holds the knife firmly, for example on a belt or the edge of trousers, which translates into great comfort of everyday use.
The American brand's production folder is an extremely versatile, lightweight structure that will work well in a number of different applications. The Cold Steel 1911 is first and foremost an excellent EDC folding knife. Small dimensions, weight and subdued style translate into comfort of use. The folder can also be used as a backup during various outdoor activities. This is a budget proposal from Cold Steel that will satisfy many users.
