Cold Steel know many of their customers are more and more concerned about the weight and “bulk” of their working knives knife as there is a lot of competition for the limited space in their pockets and tool boxes. That’s why they focused on making a featherlight 91g (3oz) ultra-slim (8.8 mm thick) folder that can be available 24/7 while still leaving room in the pocket for other essential gear.
What they didn’t do in their quest to make a super EDC knife was skimp on workmanship and materials. That’s why every blade in the Cold Steel Air Lite series exhibits flawless craftsmanship and premium materials. The blades are made from costly Japanese 10A stainless steel famed for its edge holding ability, strength and toughness and the handles are laser cut from real G-10. Even the locking mechanism can’t be beat as there is nothing better than the celebrated Tri-Ad Lock when it comes to protecting your fingers. Budget friendly pricing, amazing sharpness, and enormously comfortable and useable, the Air Lites are hard to beat for every day use!
This is the Cold Steel Air Lite Tanto, with a tanto-shaped blade.

Add to BasketThis knife has a great balance and feel to it. I bought it for DIY so not too worried about depth of the knife in my pocket, in fact it is helpful in retreiving the knife with gloved hands. There is no lanyard hole which is a shame, however i will attach a para knife pull cord to the pocket clip to solve that. The knife is about the size of a Spyderco Endela. Great service HH thank you.
Beautifully stout and simple folder from Cold Steel. Well made and I would trust my life on it. 3.5 inches is goldilocks blade size for an EDC folder. The blade came sharp but not ‘Cold Steel’ sharp like they used to come shaving sharp. Nothing dramatic that cannot be remedied with a sharpener. My main concern is that the pocket clip isn’t deep carry so the knife is showing a wee bit if clipped to a pocket which is a crying shame for an EDC folder. It was really close to EDC perfection if not for the clip’s position. Still a very lightweight, extremely strong and dependable folder for camping and EDC where legal.
