A cobra once bit Lynn Thompson, after 2 wks of agonizing pain the cobra died of cardiovascular disease.
With broken teeth!
Don't antagonize the fat guy. He produces and designs some insane blades.
That cobra just could keep up with his foot work lol.
If you slap a deep carry pocket clip on Lynn Thompson, you'd be invincible. And immobile.

Absolutely love my SR1 tanto. When I don't know what is going to happen, overkill is always the best option.
it's my new fave, for sure. I bought mine to replace the Kershaw Lonerock Folder I used to have as my EDC. although I miss my Paradox with grivory handles.
UA-camr " JOEX " recently did a destruction test on the SR1 Lite and was unsuccessful in destroying it. The engineers @Cold Steel know what they're talking about. They know the proper tempering techniques. I was super astonished of this budget knife.
I just want one because they're big and daft. As knife enthusiasts we all have our dainty light use knives, our super clean fidgety knives and maybe an ancient favourite beater. So who doesn't want to add a big daft slab to their collection?!
Cold Steel makes some really good folders no doubt. I carry the Voyager XL everyday and have been for almost 10 years. It’s solid. That triad lock is the best. I’m going to check out the SR1. Jonny likey.
I wish they would bring back the X2 voyagers with the triad lock and upgraded steel.
...just ordered the Voyager XL Tanto this past Friday - got it for 78 bux during their summer 2020 sale...will eventually get the Snaggletooth Tactical opener for it...
Me too, the Voyager XL Clip Point. I absolutely love the knife. In VA, you can conceal carry a folding knife of any blade length, accept in certain areas. Unfortunately, we don't have preemption, so my liberal county makes it's on rules. In the "Gun Free" park my daughter plays in, I can't carry my pistol, and they limit the folding knife blade length to 4 inches. These knives look like good options for 4" folders.
Tanto and serrated vaquero for me. Awesome knives
Cold steel. When you need a a pry bar that cuts!!! Don't get me wrong I love cold steel Lynn Thompson cranks it up to 11!
Not untrue, but they do make some.very nice smaller knives!
I live out in the Florida woodlands and the thing I like about the sr1 is the fact I can carry a blade in my pocket and no one knows I am carrying a knife that has similar properties to a fixed blade but very compact and easily deployed. The reliability of a knife is a characteristic that some people look over to have it made lighter and more comfortable in the pocket. Great review Aaron as always!
Okay, so here is my use profile for the SR1, and it rocks. I have the standard clip version. I carry it in my backpack or hip pack when I am moto camping. It is the knife I have "on me" for basic food prep. The point is sharp for poking and piercing. The handle is big enough to give full purchase with a motorcycle gloved hand. The strength of the knife is appreciated for any number of tough roadside repair or emergency applications. I have actually used the knife to break a window and cut seatbelt to extract an rollover accident victim when I was first at the scene on a back road. Last, the linear shape makes it ideal for self defense use. I carry a camping fixed blade in my saddlebag, but the SR1 is the knife I have on me.
I don't yet own a single folder. All my knives are fixed blades but I'm really considering this SR1. It looks like a really solid knife. It would be nice to be able to carry a knife for hiking etc without the hassle of carrying a fixed blade. I've never been the type into folders but this one really floats my boat. The guys at Dutch bushcraft knives also gave it a really positive review.
Oh yeah
Once it's locked opened its basically a fixed blade, I have the s35vn tanto version. It's a absolute beast.
I’ve got two of the lites….tanto and curved blade. Under crazy, super extreme abuse…and I mean near unbelievable abuse, a full tan would perform better…. For what 99.999 percent of anything I would practically tried at it..hell, even a decent amount of abuse in my real life…no problem for these monsters.
Have carried CRKT m16-04S tanto w/serrations for decades. It now resides in my rope bag. This SR1 beast is a bit larger, thicker & triad lockup awesome! Great grips too!
Thanks GT...again👍👍
I bought the SR1 Lite Tanto, Voyager Large Tanto in AUS-10A, Immortal in S35VN, and Click N Cut this year. I did not know 8CR13MOV received so much bad press. But I like mine as a knife when I wear work pants. It is a tough knife, and I keep mine as sharp as possible. But you and Jimislash kept your shows with unbiased views and brought out what the SR1's (especially the Lite versions) are capable of. Thank you for that.
I have the SR-1 Tanto and Clip point in the Lite version and I have to say, they're "unbeatable"! I've been EDCing them both for almost a year. So, I've ordered the premium SR-1 Clip point cause it looks like to me, that it is the ULTIMATE folder! Every video and review that I've seen on it, reaffirms my conclusion!!! For me, the SR-1, is the best of the best... GREAT video here too btw!!!
For "STRENGTH and BRUTALITY"!
Bwuaaahaaaa! That should be Cold Steel's new slogan.
Thanks for the video my Bladed Brother👍⚔️✝️🇺🇲
WHY ? because "I like Big Knives and I Cannot Lie ...." 👍⚔🗡🖖
You other knife brothers can't deny!
I bought a standard SR1 G10/CPM and I gotta say its an impressive knife for the money.
With the Tri-ad lock, these things are a legit fixed-blade replacement for reasonable taskes, especially compared to half tang, skeltonized tang or rat tail types.
The machining/grinding on mine is pretty much perfect.
The SR1 is a fantastic fixed-blade alternate for low-key day hikes, mountain biking, or trekking with your wife's sheep friends where a 9"+ fixed blade would draw unwanted attention or give off a Rambo vibe. It's a great companion for my G35 in a Maxpedition Civilian's ccw pouch.
The SR1 is also an easy carry in a sling-pack's mag/multi-tool pouch.
The one place I can't see fit to carry the SR1 is.. in my jeans pocket.
I can't wait for the SRK Compact to come out in 3V. 👍 The C.S. Voyager is a Great knife and it super underrated, probably because it's an older knife and thiers not alot of videos on it , but its 1 of my alltime Favorite C.S. knives ...👍👍🗡⚔🖖😷
One of the most comfortable handles out there to boot.
The voyagers are their best all around folders for a reason. I love my X2 clip point serrated!
Watched the Cold Steel video where they hung 400 lbs. of weight off an SR1 Lite. Pretty strong lock. Good comparison. Thanks.
I own the SR1 Lite Clip Point, It has been in my pocket everyday for about 2 months now. Love It, if you can buy and you are looking at this knife, BUY IT. Love watching the videos and please keep it up. 👍👍
Awesome Knives from Cold Steel. Thanks for showing these knives, Aaron !!!!!!!!!
I have one of the SR 1 Lites and will get another at some point and I agree 100% with those comments. It's a beast/tank of a knife and is really $ well spent.
Great review as usual! I am thinking it might be good for a short day hike with the dog, when you are not really wanting to have a fixed blade hanging from your belt.
That double open was clean
Best CS SR knives video! Please keep uploading, we definitely going to enjoy them! Big thank you!
I need this monster in my CS collection, love 4+ inch knives and this one looks tough, I dig it!
I saw a torture test of the 8cr14 versions. They did really well. The heat treat is very important, CS knows how to do it right.
I have the AD10 and the SR1Lite. The AD10 is my EDC. The SR1Lite is for when I travel to Honduras. The SR1Lite would be illegal to pocket carry there, but legal to carry in a pouch (it fits in a pistol mag pouch).
I carry the range boss in my front right pocket and the sr1 lite tanto in the rear left pocket. The range boss, even with a little over 4 inch blade, is a small knife it likes to sit in the fingers. The sr1 lite is big. It sits in the hand. I've literally pryed with it. Since the lite model has a bit of a softer steel, I just scrape it on sh!+ to sharpen it, and I steel it on other knives. It will shave wet but not dry, and I'm fine with that level of sharpness for what it is. . . A pry bar.
I only paid $37 for the sr1 lite on Amazon. And the only difference is no g10 scales and 8cr14mov instead of s35vn…I’ll take it if it saves me $100 difference if I just have to touch up the blade more often. Doesn’t matter to me. This thing is a freakin beast. Light summer carry is the okc rat 1
Love the tanto. Probably my 2nd favorite folding knife.
@gideonstactical - Good review and comparison. Can't wait for the SRK-C review! I think a tandem review of the 4Max Scout compared to the AirLite would be great too. (BTW, the AirLite Drop Point has become my favorite EDC...worth checking out.)
Hi, thank you for the nice review. Just a little thing, the weight SRK 1C is just 1oz bigger as you said (and there is a bit more of the edge, which is good), but sometimes we forget weight and size of a sheath so we can make from comparable size and weight a folder and a fixed knife completely uncomparable items. Here for example the SR 1we can somehaw put it into our pocket. The SRK 1C WITH the sheath makes the width of the blade nearly ×2 and it adds atleast 2oz I gues, so now we have completely different items to carry:-) Just opinion… Good job and I like CS knives and SR 1 will be definitely in my collection;-) FM
You do such an awsome job comparing. Helps us so much make a decision.
Waiting for the sr1 lite to become in available over here in the U.K. I have the srk-c witch I’ve paired up with a gomboy 240, I haven’t seen you review the srk-c yet and I’m interested to hear your take on this tool, personally I’ve retired my hog 4.5 for it and in doing so have shaved a few more ounces out of my Bergen so happy days.
Great vid! I really appreciate listing the prices as you review and compare the knives! I just got my SR1 Lite today - tanto blade!
Right on!
"Shaddup; get to the knife!* - I snorted.
I miss my SR1. I plan to get both
Gotta get one of the Lite versions absolutely. I would like the S35 but way outta my Wheelhouse and would probably be afraid to use it really. Great Video my Friend
The SR1 in S35VN is a steal at $130. Another thumbs up for Cold Steel.
Nice review, I wanted to have your advice because I was planning to buy a crkt m16-04 or m21-04. But after watching this review I wonder wich one to choos between the sr1 lite or crkt big dog?
What a beast. So cool. Sure want one.
Another great video from you. i Really love your videoes, totally detallied, awsome filmed. Thanks
I like the heft of the blade. It's heavy enough, that it becomes a gravity-operated knife with the flick of your wrist.
😂😂Craked up when u said: SHUDDUB and get to the KNIVES!!
I’ve been using the GEKKO 1500 for the last view years...this seems like a copy (lock, size)
But the blade here is even 1,5mm thicker that’s big.
Only know one that builds bigger (Medford Knives) up to 7mm 😎 great review
Awesome review Sir. Please check out the 4-Max Scout. Big knife and weighs 10 ounces but you will not believe how easy it carries in pants or jeans. I edc this knife almost every day and it’s easy in the pocket and I can do anything with it. I also use this knife as my camp knife when I am in the woods.Thanks for everything you do and be safe!
What do you mean, I take my Recon 1 to the grocery store and there isn’t a big difference between them. I also take my Max 4 Scout sometimes so he doesn’t feel left out.😁😁😁
Honestly the reason why I wanted it is because it's basically bomb proof. I wanted something I could do anything with. Turning screws to battoning wood
Thank you very much for uploading this video.
I have one question though.
Cold Steel shows in its videos that the CS SR1 can handle much more hanging weight than the CS SR 1 lite. Could you explain this to me, please (the different materials do not affect the lock, do they?)?
Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to answer my question.
And with that, I ordered another one. It had been a good 6 months since I ordered a knife.
Thinking of the SR1 for hiking. Good idea?
This was a great video. Thank you for sharing
It wouldn't be a cold steel if the pocket clip didn't thrash your pocket. Another excellent review. Thank you.
What size gloves do your wear again?
I found that sr1 lite at my local bucees and the srk both priced for 50$ well 55$ with taxes
I carry an Endura or a discontinued Benchmade McHenry@Williams . In my suitcase I keep a Large Cold Steel Voyager as my hotel knife.
I'm curious as to what you need a big knife in a hotel room for!?
The SR1 is the King of hard use folders. I own quite a few...from $50 to $650 folders...and for my money the SR1 gets the Title.
They have partial steel liners. The steel is where it needs to be near the pivot and the lock
Looking at the knife from the top side, it looks like they do have metal liners.
While you have multiple sr1s, you gotta see if you can swap the g10 for the plastic on the sr1 heavy! Save some weight, better steel, and finally black!
Thanks Aaron; good review.
You can see how effectively the tanto point pushes through the plastic bottle over the standard tip not sold on the look tho
They obviously DO have steel liners. Look at the back of the handle. From Cold Steel's site "the SR1’s handle is made from premium G-10 with heat treated nested steel liners."
I OWE SOME FAIRLY EXPENSIVE KNIVES AND FOR $80, THE COLD STEEL AIR LITE TANTO HAS REPLACED THEM ALL. I WAS ACTUALLY SURPRISED WITH THE QUALITY...
Hi, Gideon, What folding knife would you recommend me to buy, choosing only one of them: the Cold Steel Voyager L Clip point or the Cold Steel SR1 Lite?. Thank you very much. Greetings.
Great video bud, someone else recommended I get an Sr1
Have one in my pocket right now. Carrys just fine and it's so bad A! Great video!
Hi, you seem to be a G-Shock square models fan, could you do a video on this subject ?
It would be interesting to hear your opinion on this watches, wearing them in the field or at home.
Why g-shocks over Protrecks for instance ?
Cheers and congrats for you channel :-)
.
.
I have the squar gshock. They are the smallest mens gshock. Just a simple time piece super reliable. I also have a protreck i find it big and the features a bit gimicky. If you need a compass get a good prismatic compass. I dont think the baramoter or altimiter are that useful.
Hey Aaron was it medium sized gloves you're using? Didnt get it...
Nice review
But I have to ask
What camera do you use?
SR1 tanto not a knife, just sharpened prybar! It's the real beast! You can chop limbs and branches without worry!
It's meant to be as close to a fixed blade in performance, without the inconveniences and legality issues of a sheath blade.
@@TheScotchaholic that's sure it's
I have followed your channel for years, if I had dollar for everytime you said "I wear large sized gloves." 😜🤪. It is all good, keep the videos coming.
I saw that srk c I want to see the review to!!! ❤️❤️❤️
To what?
If you've to decide between SR1 vs Bush ranger for general camp use... What would be your choice?
i own both SR1 lites....and there at a cheaper price now....there definitely good value for the $$$ if you need a overbuilt folding knife
Knives look tough , I guess people had trouble with the pocket clips, maybe they can come off ?
I just got the sr1 lite clip point a few days ago . I love it BUT after a few days I have noticed the blade is hitting the lock bar when closed , now the blade has a roll otherwise it's perfect.. I will contact cold steel , I have heard others with the same problem . I love the knife so hopefully problem can be resolved. I haven't given them a chance to rectify problem so in my opinion if you like the knife get it .
I haven’t see that on all three of mine. I would reach out to @coldsteel
@@gideonstactical I'm going to call them tomorrow . the tolerance is tight . it didn't come damaged , it's on the edge straight down from where the swedge starts , when you close the knife it hits a high point on the in side of the lock bar. Mine is definitely hitting and rolling BUT possibly sharpening may fix this ( tight tolerances ) , I'm going to contact them first before sharpening , I feel like it probably doesn't happen on every example but could be fixed at factory by increasing handle height or blade height where blade hits pin on the inside or a little of both . on another review in the comments I had seen that cold steel had acknowledged this issue , like I said it probably isn't every one , I own lots of cold steel products and could go on and on and love them all , please don't be disparaged if you're reading this comment IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN THIS KNIFE OR ANY COLD STEEL PRODUCTS GET IT . Thanks Aaron I always enjoy your reviews keep up the good work . Thanks
Ps . Mine is the clip point , I'm only speculating but with the slight belly on the tanto I can not imagine having any issues , just my opinion. Thanks again
It could even possibly replace my Bravo 3! Maybe not in chopping but pretty much everything else lol
do SR1 lite have 90 degree spine... that can be use for ferro rods?
Does the recon or voyager have steel liners?
Hi Aaron I forgot , HAPPY FATHER'S DAY . GOD BLESS YOU and your family. Thanks
Love your test videos on knives. Unlike other reviewers who just talk about the knife without doing any testing.
Can you do a review on the Cold Steel 4-max Scout? How does it perform in the woods? And then maybe compare it to the SR1 series?
Thank you for the compliment. I will see what I can do
I edc the finn wolf and recon 1 but the sr1 lite is my "out door / work " folder
What is stronger or better 13mov or aus 8, honest question can someone tell me, Thanks in advance
cool but to high ..I have the Voyager xl tanto and clip point lovem
Luv the SR1 Series! Peace, Stiletto :-)
I've got the SR1 Lite Tanto...nothing 'light' about it...it's a tank!!!
I found these for $33, clip point, tanto blade is $42 Should I buy one
I don’t have the sr1, but I have the 4max scout. Man what a beast of a knife. Sure is heavy tho
Cold Steel needed to make The SR1 Lite in 9CR18MOV,AUS 10 A or a Sandvick Steel.I really would have paid an extra $20 for an upgraded budget steel on The Lite model.I believe it would not have killed Cold Steel to do this at a reasonable price.
They should’ve made it in aus 8
AUS 10 A is better and not that expensive!!@@TheRealB1gA
Just got this yesterday
I have the Recon 1 with the black finished blade, which I hate, scratches show up to well and make it look like s++t...
Wrong scratches make it look used which is awesome. Blades are tools. Anybody that has unused tools with no signs of use or scratches doesn’t know how to use them and is an amateur ... pick your trade.
@@smokethirteen Great point, Kind of like my 2018 Jeep that has scratches ( pin stripes ) from driving around in the boonies...
The new coating is awesome. It'll only scratch if you're stabbing metal for example. Abusing the blade
Do you have CS voyager review?
You have discovered what I have known for a long time...my EDC blade is a Kershaw Skyline (yes, purchased based on your recommendation), but when it is heavy duty work time I reach for my Zero Tolerance ZT200ST. It is built like a tank and is the folder I would take with me into the wilderness if a fixed blade was not an option.
So the only draw back to budget steel is edge retention?
Sometimes rusting and toughness
5:47 Someone call PETA. Poor creature just minding its own business, out practicing his climbing on the local wall. Along comes Aaron and his big ol’ knife and with him a large earthquake. 🤣
These knives are great for people who want to daily carry a fixed blade, but maybe can't, or feel uncomfortable doing so.
I got my sr1 lite for 40 bucks and It has performed better than my gerber combat folder
The tanto is calling my name lol
I'd go to the grocery store with a SR1 allday..id go to the store with a Rajah2..im a big dude and I like a big blade small knives feel like I'm cut myself with my big hands SR1lite is an awesome CSteel EDC for me.
Keep in mind the sr1 is a cpm s35vn. The cpm part is important not to forget, in my mind cpm is superior.
it is no doubt
tougher AND better edge retention
