Cold Steel Engage Tanto Lite Folding Knife – OD Green

Tactical Profile. Atlas Lock Confidence.

The Cold Steel Engage Tanto Lite – OD Green combines the proven performance of the Engage platform with a reinforced tanto blade and a distinctive olive drab finish. Built around Cold Steel's innovative Atlas™ Lock, this lightweight folding knife delivers exceptional strength, dependable lock-up and outstanding practicality for outdoor adventures, workshop projects and demanding utility tasks. Now discontinued, it is an increasingly desirable model for collectors looking to secure one before remaining stock disappears.

Its 3.13-inch tanto blade is crafted from German 4116 stainless steel, offering an excellent balance of toughness, corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening. Finished with a durable black stonewashed coating, the blade conceals signs of regular use while providing an attractive low-reflective appearance. The reinforced angular tanto tip adds excellent point strength, while the plain edge delivers precise, controlled cutting for a wide variety of practical applications. A subtle thumb recess along the spine enhances comfort and control during detailed work.

The OD Green GFN (Glass-Filled Nylon) handle is ergonomically contoured to provide a secure grip in a variety of conditions. Lightweight yet highly resilient, it features an integral lanyard hole and a reversible pocket clip, allowing comfortable left- or right-handed carry. The textured handle ensures excellent control while maintaining the durability expected from Cold Steel's hard-working utility knives.

At the heart of the Engage Tanto Lite is Cold Steel's patent-pending Atlas™ Lock, an advanced slide-action locking mechanism engineered for exceptional strength, smooth operation and dependable long-term reliability. Fully ambidextrous by design, it provides secure blade lock-up while remaining intuitive to operate, giving users confidence during demanding cutting tasks.

Combining modern locking technology, a reinforced tanto blade and lightweight construction, the Cold Steel Engage Tanto Lite Folding Knife – OD Green offers outstanding value and dependable performance in a compact package that's equally suited to collectors and outdoor enthusiasts.
