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 Wess custom knife, the blade
features a wide saber grind and a strong, sharp point with plenty of belly
for cutting and slashing. Its made from Japanese 4116 Stainless and is
hollow ground to a thin, razor edge that will cut at the slightest touch.
And, because Wess flipper is integrated into the tang, it can be opened
lightning fast! The handle of the Crawford Model 1 mimics Wess originals
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.
