Cold Steel 4-Max Scout AUS-10A Folding Knife - Black
Designed for everyday carry (EDC), this folding knife is crafted by American knifemaker Andrew Demko. The blade, featuring a black coating, is constructed from Japanese AUS-10A steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance. A black handle made from Griv-Ex composite ensures a secure, non-slip grip. Deployment is effortless thanks to the ambidextrous thumb stud, while the Tri-Ad Lock mechanism provides dependable blade security during operation.
Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel
The blade is made of Japanese AUS-10A steel, which is characterized by strength, very good resistance to corrosion and abrasion. After hardening, it reaches a hardness of 58-61 HRC.
Drop-Point profile blade, black coating
The blade with Drop-Point profile is 101 mm long and 4.8 mm thick. The smooth cutting edge is brought out with a high flat grind. The blade is coated with a black coating that reduces light reflections. The design of the blade provides very good cutting efficiency, while maintaining adequate strength, which allows the knife to be used more intensively.
Ergonomic Griv-Ex composite handle, steel clip
The construction of the handle is based on a stainless steel framework, to which are attached scales and a back spacer made of durable Griv-Ex composite. The non-slip texture gives a secure grip even when the hand is wet or dirty, and finger undercuts increase control of the tool. The large, ergonomically contoured form provides comfortable working with both bare hands and gloves. At the end of the handle is a hole for interlacing a safety line.
The knife is equipped with a steel tip-up clip, which can be translated to both sides of the handle for right- and left-handed users, respectively.
Tri-Ad Lock, double-sided thumb stud
The blade in the open position is secured by the Tri-Ad Lock system, which is an improved version of the classic Back Lock and considered one of the most durable locks in folding knives. The design is based on a stop pin that takes the forces acting on the blade and transfers them to the handle body, minimizing wear on the mechanism. The system automatically compensates for the natural working out, keeping the lock secure. On the blade there is a thumb stud on both sides, allowing you to quickly open the knife with one hand.
