NEW!! Cold Steel Swift III - First Look

[@Fishbag61]

Thanks for the look...I have one on the way!

[@jeffkodiac]

In my wish list

[@darksi226]

Cool vid

[@Ten_Mil_Will]

I am curious - Why do you want to replace the bearings with washers?

[@bladecentered2264]

I like the feel of washers better, plus they require less maintenance​and are less effected by dirt and debris

[@StoneHands25]

Does this have a hollow? Just curious because a few sites say it is like bhq and GP knives. Thanks! 🙏

[@bladecentered2264]

Nope mine is not hollow ground

[@candymr2]

If you depress the atlas lock, will the blade deploy like a auto?

[@bladecentered2264]

No because it doesn't create the detent for the knife, the springs do

[@MitchNthings]

Any idea if it can be converted to manual if you remove the spring?

[@bladecentered2264]

I don't think so because there's no detent ball, it uses the springs as the detent

RIP CS

[@Kris_Stiletto]

I absolutely luv mine. My only gripe is, I would like better Pocket Clip retention. Awesome Cold Steel Folder! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)

[@stevenicholas5651]

Why would they make this assisted?? That's so dumb. Useless

[@bladeandcloak666]

It's a continuation of the Swift line which started with swift 1 and swift 2, both were assisted but discontinued.

[@stevenicholas5651]

@bladeandcloak666 You think they would learn though. They both are discontinued because assisted knives suck. Hahaha. This could've been a great knife.

[@joesmith-t2z]

Cool knife. But knives that big, and assisted opening, are illegal in some places. Also M4 is high-speed-tool steel. it probably holds an edge well but it might be too brittle for blades. CPM 3V, CPM 4V, or the new Magna-Cut CPM super stainless would probably be better.
