Correction: I mention that the SR1 Lite has 8cr13mov steel, whereas it is actually 8cr14mov.

I've got a Recon 1, and yes, it's got a solid lock up. But! I really don't like the placement of the release. I prefer a knife that I can easily deploy and close with one hand because of my line of work. I don't like the idea of a knife where my fingers are in the path of the leading edge when releasing the blade. This style of knife is great if you plan to baton but I've got fixed blades for that. If I could only carry one knife into the wild with as little as possible, I'd go in with just a fixed blade. It's almost perfect and I'll likely add it to my collection just 'cuz😂. Thanks for the review!

I close it 1 handed all the time and have only cut myself a few times haha

Same. I had to practice hand placement so it would become second nature.

Are these new knives, or did cold steel service your chippped SR1/lite models?
