The Cold Steel Crawford Model 1 (brand part no. CS20MWCZ) is a 3.5-inch folding knife with a wide saber-ground clip point blade built for cutting and slashing with plenty of belly. Made by Cold Steel, it’s hollow ground from Japanese 4034 stainless to a thin, razor edge, and its flipper is integrated directly into the tang for a lightning-fast one-handed opening. A leaf spring lock plus a patent-pending secondary safety mechanism keep the blade secure even under shock or impact.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Crawford Model 1’s flipper different from a typical flipper knife? The flipper is integrated directly into the tang rather than being a separate tab, which Cold Steel builds for a faster, more direct opening action.

How does the secondary safety mechanism work? It’s a patent-pending feature that, once engaged, makes the leaf spring lock extremely resistant to shock and impact for extra security.
