COLD STEEL AD-10 Lite Folding Knife — AUS10A Blade, GFN Handle, Tri-Ad Lock

The COLD STEEL AD-10 Lite folding knife brings the core design and high-performance intent of the AD-10 series in a more budget-friendly package. Constructed for EDC and tactical use, the AD-10 Lite pairs a razor-sharp AUS 10A stainless steel blade with a durable GFN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon) handle and Cold Steel's exclusive Tri-Ad locking mechanism for secure, stable use. The design includes ambidextrous deployment and an ambidextrous pocket/belt clip for versatile carry. The family is offered in two blade shapes—Drop Point and Tanto—and retains specifications common across the line: Weight 6.4 oz; Blade Length 3.5 in; Blade Thickness ~3.8 mm (0.15 in); Handle Length 5.3 in; Overall Length 8.8 in. AD-10 Lite models use GFN handles instead of G-10 and AUS 10A steel instead of S35VN to provide an affordable option while maintaining utility and robustness.
