    Ti-Lite® tactical folders evoke the sleek speed and rebellious lines of the classic 1950's-styled switchblade. Unlike most switchblades however, they are legal to carry nearly everywhere.

    They feature Japanese made AUS 8A stainless steel blades with a bead blast finish, razor sharp edges and sturdy, needle sharp points. The CNC milled handles are forged from super tough 7075 Aluminum billets and are given an attractive bead blast surface and finished with a protective EDP (Electric Discharge Plating) coating. And for maximum strength and safety, we have equipped our Ti-Lites® with our patent pending, stainless steel leaf spring locks (proven, in our tests, to hold 130 lbs).

    For ease of carry, the Ti-Lites® come equipped with a small, but unobtrusive steel pocket clip, and can be opened rapidly by using the thumb studs or by snagging a quillon on the edge of your pocket as you draw your knife out.

    We are grateful to custom knife maker, Phil Boguszewski, for his design influence and help in the creation of the Ti-Lites.®

    The Zy-Ex Handled Ti-Lites®
    Custom quality folding knives, especially those manufactured with Titanium handles and Titanium leaf spring locks are undeniably strong, lightweight, and beautiful to look at, but they're also quite expensive.

    We know that many of our customers love the look of our Ti-Lites® but find the prices a little steep. So we have created some very affordable alternatives. The Zy-Ex Ti-Lite® with a 4 inch blade mimics the look of its more expensive counterparts almost exactly, and our model that features a six inch blade is a completely unique Ti-Lite®, virtually in a class by itself.

    Instead of 7075 Aluminum, we used 43% glass filled Zy-Ex for the handles and high quality stainless steel for the leaf spring lock and liners. The results are extraordinarily lightweight knives that are remarkably strong, sharp and good looking, at a price almost everyone can afford.

    I carried this knife for almost two years while in the Marine Corps, as well as at my job when I got out. It by far surpassed any other knife in its class. There wasnt a job it couldnt do, from cutting rope, rubber, 6" steel vac hoses. I put this knife through many things they would consider to be gross neglect. I used it as a throwing knife, fighting knife, utility knife (it can open a can of chilli with no problem). It is hands down one of, if not the best knife i've ever owned. I lost it on a jobsite a few years back, finally replaced it recently. But, I can't say it enough, the Ti Lites can take whatever you throw at them and just keep asking for more. Thank you Cold Steel. Semper Fidelis.

    I own all four of the Ti Lite knives both 4" models and both 6" models. The Zytel handle 4" goes everywhere with me everyday. I am left handed and find this knife the easiest to learn to deploy quickly both left and right handed draw. It is shaving sharp and will cut or pierce almost anything you would want. It also conceals easily and carries conveniently. The lightning fast draw and deployment has a chilling effect on the uninitiated. Ocassionally I will carry a second knife depending on where and what I am doing and most of the time is is another Ti Lite. The only suggestion is I wish I could move the pocket clip to the other side. Absolutely my favorite blade. Thanks for such a great product.
