Cold Steel 26AST Ti-Lite Linerlock Folding Knife (4 Inch Stiletto Blade) Aluminum Handle

Cold Steel 26AST Ti-Lite, Aluminum. Ti-Lite® tactical folders evoke the sleek speed and rebellious lines of the classic 1950's-styled switchblade. Unlike most switchblades however, they are legal to carry nearly everywhere.

They feature Japanese made AUS 8A stainless steel blades with a bead blast finish, razor sharp edges and sturdy, needle sharp points. The CNC milled handles are forged from super tough 7075 Aluminum billets and are given an attractive bead blast surface and finished with a protective EDP (Electric Discharge Plating) coating. And for maximum strength and safety, we have equipped our Ti-Lites® with our patent pending, stainless steel leaf spring locks (proven, in our tests, to hold 130 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.

We are grateful to custom knife maker, Phil Boguszewski, for his design influence and help in the creation of the Ti-Lites.®

The Cold Steel Aluminum Ti-Lite XL Knife designed in collaboration with custom knifemaker Phil Boguszewski, has a 4" stiletto style blade made of AUS8A stainless steel, 3mm thick. The blade has a thumb stud for one hand opening, and dual blade extensions. The top blade extension serves as an index finger trigger opening option, and the two extensions form an integral guard when the blade is locked open. The drilled Aluminum handle, 4.75" closed, has a stainless steel leaf spring lock. A removable stainless steel pocket clip is mounted at the butt end.
