Cold Steel AD-15 LITE Folding Knife.

We think the AD-15 is worth every penny we ask for it, but we realize its price tag may be out of reach for many fans who would like to own one. The AD-15 Lite is the budget version AD-15 enthusiasts have been waiting for. The same look, style and construction as the original, the AD-15 Lite features a blade made from Japanese 10A steel and an injection-molded Griv-Ex™ handle instead of the expensive 3D CNC machined grip used on the standard 15.

AUS-10A steel
Blade length: 90 mm
Blade thickness: 3.8 mm
Length of handle: 130 mm
Stem from G10
Weight: 184 g

Cold Steel is a company engaged in the production of the strongest and sharpest knives in the world. Over the past three decades, Cold Steel has been at the forefront of many innovations that have helped define the knife industry. Successive successes, including the introduction of Kraton® checked handles, and tanto point blade styles, have gone from curious features to industrial hallmarks of quality and sophistication. The new direction was also broken with the introduction of unique new steel blades such as San Mai III® and Tri-Ad ™ Lock & locking mechanism for folding knives. For example, the Tri-Ad ™ Lock has never been matched by any of Cold Steel’s competitors and has not been proven to outperform anything they’ve produced to date. Of course, Cold Steel will always look to the future and constantly strive to produce the strongest and sharpest knives in the world. This goal, equally elusive and difficult to achieve, has been the same for the past forty years. Cold Steel Inc. is a company focused on producing the strongest and sharpest knives, swords, tomahawks, machetes, cutlery and tools for everyday carry: EDC. Quickly adopted by the military, law enforcement special forces, emergency responders, self-defense professionals, and members of the martial arts community, Cold Steel quickly made a name for itself for quality, strength, reliability, and dependability in everyday carry (EDC). Our diverse and varied line-up quickly grew to include not only a massive selection of folding knives (from smaller ‘EDC’ blades to our iconic giant ‘mega-folders’) but also fixed blades, swords, sabers, staves and halberds, as well as hunting supplies, spears, rifles, axes, machetes, tomahawks and tools! Over the decades, Cold Steel has introduced pioneering new materials and designs that have helped shape the world of modern knives, edged weapons and tools. From the introduction of Kraton® checkered grips and the “Americanized” Tanto blade, to the inclusion of innovative new blade steels like San Mai III® and game-changing locking mechanisms (like our Tri-Ad ™ Lock). As we look to the future, Cold Steel continues to bring new levels of strength, safety and performance to market, providing proven products you can rely on – anytime, anywhere!
