Showing the newest addition to the Ti-Lite collection, The Lynn Thompson Signature Ti-Lite. This one features a six inch clip point blade of S35VN steel. COLD STEEL STORE: s71.co/41vsN2u
I have had an X2 Voyager (among a few others ) that must be 20 years old by now and it is still performing as well as it did the day I bought it ,so you can bet I have a deep and abiding love for Cold Steel folding knives of many kinds and these are no exception .Great vid my friend ,long may your love of these examples of "edged ass kickery " continue .
That is freakin sweet. I got my first Ti-Lite this week. It has detent lash to where the tip can wander almost out of the liners. I’m looking around at some RUclips to see if anyone else has had that issue with the Ti-Lites. Thanks for the video 😌
I dig the blade shape. Though I tend to shy away from the expensive steels when choosing a "tactical" blade. Mostly b/c IF (God forbid) one has to use it the police will take it & you'll prob never see it again. I know b/c I have lost one that way when I was attacked. Got myself some stab wounds, some cuts but im still here b/c my training & that $40 knife saved my butt.
I carry a self defense blade too, but I have found that police grade pepper spray works far better for self defense. The main reason I carry a blade is to cut through a seat belt in case the belts lock up during a bad car accident.
Mine came with slight side to side play. Tightening the pivot screw just a tad took care of it, though it also made the blade more difficult to deploy and close. I really wish that this knife came with some bronze pivot washers as opposed to nylon. What you really don't want is the play along the pivot axis. That's called "lock rock" and indicates bad lockup geometry. Though sometimes, that will go away as the knife breaks in as you open and close it a bunch of times.
I just got this knife for under $100 (Cold Steel site sale + coupon). It's an impressive chunk of S35VN, with the blade looking like a really mean balisong one. However, I'm a bit disappointed. The knife same with some side to side blade play and by the time I eliminated it completely (by tightening the pivot screw), it became a lot more difficult to open and close. Also, the washers feel like simple nylon. They really should've upgraded them to phosphor bronze on this sig model. That's not my bigger issue with this knife though. I like to weak hand (left) carry "tactical blades". This knife doesn't have a lefty clip mounting position. Ideally, it should be like Benchmade SOCP Folder - left/right tip up/down carry positions. Also, it's kind of a bitch to open reliably one-handed. Both the thumb stud and the "front flipper" really dig into my thumbs. It blows my mind that they didn't just stick a SOCP Folder style thumb disk of this thing, which would have mostly eliminated the need for that scale cutout and made thumb deployment ambidextrous. I'd love to be able to carry thing thing as my weak side backup "defense tool" but it's just not practical enough, relegating it to a curiosity blade for me. If someone has so tips on how I could make it work for this role, please share.
I'm glad you got it for such a good price! Sorry to hear it was not suitable for the carrying though. I'm sure you will find one of their other large sized folders for that. I sometimes carry Espada L or LX.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives I have a Mayhem, which I can actually carry without too much trouble. It's probably the largest folder ever than can still comfortably fit into a jeans front pocket. I also have a Counter Point 4 which I like quite a bit and thinking about getting the big one as well. I'm still thinking of ways to to make the Ti Lite Sig work for me though. It seems to have a rather strong detent holding the blade, so it might not be too unsafe to carry in the left pocket with the blade towards the front (and my junk :) ). I also discovered that when when I take it out of the pocket like that, I can then give it a good shake towards the ground and whip the blade out in the reverse/tactical grip. I am also getting better at verse flicking it open with my left hand and am considering just carrying it blade towards the back inside a leather pocket slip held in place by an UltiClip. It's still annoying that they didn't simply provide a lefty clip mounting position and a thumb disk opener, especially considering that the vast majority of their other knives are ambidextrous!
You must have the G-10 model, they only have one liner. The Zygote Modelo (zytel model) 🤗 has twin nested liners made of old medals for your own pleasures to cherish and adore said liners 😊 cold steel has several versions of this great knife. Too bad you purchased the premium version 👁️👄👁️
Not recommended for lilliputians. Come to think of it, few of Lynn’s knives are meant for the lollipop guild. There not XL, they’re normal sized knives. Others are for pairing.

You still need the serrated kriss blade lol
This “kid” is over 60 and still like the Cold Steel videos and your reviews!
Glad you made it!

Thanks, brother! Still love my old school Voyager Vaquero XXL.
Very nice! I always enjoy your videos. Your skill level on those water bottles is impressive. Never gets old.
Thanks, brother!

I put it on my wish list for next year, which is in a couple of weeks. 😅
Oh funny dude
I own one it’s a deadly beauty.

That's awesome. I have a homemade shank for that special day.

knives are the better deterrent than pepper spray. and better for bears, dogs. etc..
these knife reviews would not be complete without the water bottle cut! sick!
This clip point version looks awesome!! Have a great weekend, brother!
Thanks, you too!
Lynn Thompson is one of my spirit animals! (Joe Flowers is the other one!) 😂😂😂
Wow , you got them all now 😊
I'm still trying to catch up and yeah Buddy that blade is spectacular in the Clip Point Bowie Blade. 😊
Got this on clearance from midway for 99 bucks
Great score! Yeah I have heard they are doing a crazy sale this weekend.
Less than 90 shipped this week. One is on the way for me
@@joshtalbot1086 - Epic score, congrats!
Sweet blade bro!
Thanks, brother!
Different blade styles load with the same handle, and every one of them looks good.
I bought,very well made knife!!!
I'm gonna buy this and re sale this in the future
I like that.....one of only 3000 to be made...nice.
Love the blade. Hope they’ll do an aus-10 version for like $85.
Currently 82$ on midway USA
➡ Thanks for showing! ⬅
It equally effective but it doesn't look as if it is with the Clip Point, but it is just as deadly as the original. 😊
Awesome man thanks
It's a cold steel knife.You could bush craft with it.
Love that
I really like the blade shape. The ColdSteel store doesn’t list it, so where did you get yours? I’m very interested.
Knifecenter has them now.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives Thanks!
nice..i like the shape a lot..i don't like s35vn..but this is no knife for doing the finest cuts..so it's kind of okay in the end..greetings..uddo
Шикарный нож
Nice one
This is really a nice one. Unfortunately it is hard to get here and not really compliant with the rules... 😞
Is there any blade play in your knife mije seems to have blade movement. Is that normal??
Mine was good, if the play is severe definitely return.
@WeAllJuggleKnives when you hold the spring bar tp the side the blade wobble side to side is that normal
Does not sound normal. What if you tighten the pivot screw?
@WeAllJuggleKnives I didn't think about that thanks

Very good Video. :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Do you really think he is a "master"?!
The handle color complete your collection 👍
I think he's a dangerous psychopath :] (I've known a lot of them!)
@@WeAllJuggleKnives i agree with you except with the dangerous part :)
Wish you the best for this holidays!!!💥
take love from Bangladesh
Thanks, my friend!

I don't understand why its missing one of the reinforcing plates.
I thought mine was defective.
Seems like cost cutting.

Meh, put some serrations on it and I might not be able to resist
Exactly!
Not recommended for lilliputians. Come to think of it, few of Lynn’s knives are meant for the lollipop guild.
There not XL, they’re normal sized knives. Others are for pairing.
i love all 3 versions but keris is no1 for me
I love kris knives as well, I got a Derespina Kris dagger that's crazy sharp.
