2020 is coming...

Selfishly I hope CS doesn't make too many more knives in China with the 8cr13Mov. I know there's a contunual battle keep costs low. Seems like the Luzon has been a success. I prefer the Taiwan production with AUS8A on the low end.

Looking forward to more folders too. The Recon 1 tanto is one of my favorite knives to this day.

I'm waiting to see what's new with fixed blades.

I became a fan of Drop Forged line-up, if Drop Forged Tanto appears I'll definitley buy one.

Best wishes to Cold Steel in 2020.

Whats the chance of a mini AD10 in 2020

I find it to be great fun waiting and watching for the new CS products to come out. Fanboy? Damn right, hard core. And I'll take that tough CS knife up into the northern bush for some hard wood use. They've never failed me.

Wow! Now THAT is an interesting choice for re-issue! Can you tell us anything about the rationale behind bringing this one back? Were there a lot of requests for it?

I didn't get one when it was first offered. I think I might have to avail myself this time.

Here's to hoping for some more throw-backs among the new models!

Looks like a few items got leaked by a couple of Instagram account from Russia. Really liking the look of the Air Light. Hope it's about the same size as the Lawman. Wished the doublesafe hunter and the 1911 are Triad lock...

AF · Dec 17, 2019

I predict the Air Lite sells like crazy. I also want the kris Ti Lite.

That ti-lite is pretty sweet. I wonder if there will be a 4 inch version.

RAGS · Dec 17, 2019

The Air Lite has my attention.

Hell yeah! That one makes for a great defensive knife right there.

I agree. Now if only they would come with a C-Clip instead of the nearly useless boot clip that slides off whatever it’s clipped to when trying to draw.

Hell yeah. That could potentially replace my American Lawman as the new favorite, if it's built the same, and share similar dimensions. Although i'd prefer a thicker scale. Always wanted a Lawman without choil.
I'm concerned however that with the name "Air Lite" whether this is another budget model with faux-G10(aka plastic) handle, or something that's too thin. I guess I'll hope for the best..

jux t · Dec 17, 2019

If it’s priced right I’ll consider buying the air lite. I do like the look.

Cold Steel Knives · Dec 17, 2019

I'll throw you a bone on the Air Lite.

AUS10
G10
Mid length blade
Super light
Thin
Deep-ish clip

Priced very very right.

Nope, just a whim choice by Lynn. I've never personally heard anyone ask for it.
