The SR1 Lite is a cheaper version of the SR1 and features different materials. The Griv-Ex handles fit comfortably and firmly in the hand and thanks to the ergonomic shape the knife has a solid handling. A small parry element prevents accidental slipping onto the blade. In addition, there are jimpings on the back of the handle to hold the knife when it is subjected to heavier use. The 10.2 cm long clip-point blade made of stainless 8Cr13MoV is well suited for a work knife, because in Cold Steel's own tests the steel proved to be tough and corrosion-resistant. It also lays a good cutting edge to the ground and is easy to sharpen. The blade is opened with a thumb stud on both sides. Cold Steel's SR1 Lite Clippoint is therefore a solid EDC knife with a good price-performance ratio.
