## Overview

The Crawford Model 1 Folding Knife, designed with custom maker Wes Crawford, features a 3.5-inch hollow-ground Japanese 4034 stainless steel blade with a wide saber grind for precision cutting. Its lightning-fast flipper opening, reinforced nylon handle with rubber inlays, and dual safety lock system combine durability, speed, and safety in a compact 4.1 oz package ideal for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

## Description

Wes Crawford, the custom knife maker, has been a friend of Cold Steel for years, so we were happy to collaborate with him on the creation of an inexpensive version of one of his pricey custom “flippers”. The result was our new Crawford Model 1. Strongly resembling Wes’s custom knife, the blade features a wide saber grind and a strong, sharp point with plenty of belly for cutting and slashing. It’s made from Japanese 4034 Stainless and is hollow ground to a thin, razor edge that will cut at the slightest touch. And, because Wes’s “flipper” is integrated into the tang, it can be opened lightning fast! The handle of the Crawford Model 1 mimics Wes’s original’s profile and silhouette but is made from a strong (yet economical), glass reinforced nylon that includes traction rubber inlays, and a low-profile pocket clip. To keep your fingers safe from potential harm, we have equipped the Crawford 1 with our leaf spring lock, and a (patent pending) secondary safety mechanism that, when engaged is extremely resistant to shock and impact.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: But this does not have the famous, patented, and best reason to buy a cold steel folder...a tri-ad lock, right?**
A: It doesnt. It has a rocker lock which basically is a little switch that slides behind the lockbar to ensure it doesnt fail. Its still a solid knife with a great and functional design. But i wouldnt put it in the same league as Tri-Ad locks.

**Q: How wide is the blade? The recon knife blade is very wide**
A: 1inch wide not quite as wide as a Recon. Recon Is 1 1/4 wide thickness about the same on both

**Q: What is the blade length?**
A: 3 1/2" long blade

**Q: Doesn’t weight matter when you are carrying it?  So much so that shouldn’t the specs include the weight of of what you will be carrying?**
A: I think the specs for an EDC knife should always include the weight.  Many don't...

*by O***O on 18 October 2025*

Ein kleiner Schneidteufel! Out of the box scharf und die gesamte Verarbeitung wie man es von Cold Steel gewohnt ist. Leicht, sehr gut bedienbar, toller Stahl, der die Schärfe auch bei Lagerfeuerarbeiten lange hält.
