Cold Steel Verdict Tanto 4116SS Folding Knife - Black
A folding knife designed for everyday carry (EDC) and tactical applications. The Tanto-profile blade is made of 4116SS stainless steel, which offers excellent corrosion resistance. The smooth blade features a Stonewash finish. The black handle is made of G10 laminate with a non-slip texture. The knife opens using a double-sided thumb stud, and the Tri-Ad Lock ensures safe use.
4116SS Stainless Steel
The blade is made of durable 4116SS stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion, easy to sharpen, and has a long-lasting cutting edge. After hardening, it achieves a hardness of 55–57 HRC.
tanto blade with stonewash finish
The blade, with a Tanto profile, is 79 mm long and 3 mm thick. It features a smooth cutting edge achieved through a flat grind. The blade’s geometry ensures high cutting efficiency while maintaining adequate strength, allowing for more intensive use of the knife. The blade’s Stonewash finish leaves an irregular coating that masks scratches that develop during use.
non-slip G10 laminate handle, steel clip
The ergonomically contoured handle is made entirely of durable G10 glass-epoxy laminate, consisting of two thick halves joined by screws and reinforced with a back spacer. The textured surface of the G10 enhances grip, which, combined with the ergonomic profile, ensures a secure hold. A spring-loaded clip on the handle ensures convenience for everyday carrying, allowing the knife to be clipped to a belt or the edge of a pocket. The clip is reversible and can be mounted to suit both right- and left-handed users. A hole at the end of the handle allows a safety cord or lanyard to be threaded through it.
Tri-Ad Lock, double-sided thumb stud
The knife is equipped with the Tri-Ad Lock system, considered one of the strongest locking mechanisms in folding knives. The lock relies on a stop pin that absorbs pressure from the blade, distributing it to the handle and protecting it from wear. The mechanism self-adjusts over time, ensuring a reliable lock. The blade features a double-sided thumb stud, which allows for quick, one-handed opening of the knife.
