In the test, the flat-ground SRK Compact proved to be a reliable knife that performed well throughout and did not suffer any damage even when used in tougher conditions. The sheath is not exactly attractive, but it is good.
With the Cold Steel SRK Compact, you get almost all the performance of the SRK in a much shorter, lighter and thinner package. Designed specifically for those who want or need a flat fixed blade. The SRK Compact is almost a mirror image of its big brother with all the functions you expect.
The knife has a very durable construction based on a thick, almost 5 mm thick clip point shaped blade. The model is made of high-carbon SK-5 tool steel, which is splinter-resistant and can withstand rough handling with this blade thickness. Due to its high susceptibility to corrosion, the entire blade has been protected with a black Tuff-Ex protective coating.
The handle is made of a rubbery and very durable Kray-Ex material that absorbs some shocks and provides a comfortable and secure grip even with wet or dirty hands. At the end of the handle there is a hole for attaching a rope loop, which provides additional protection against accidental slipping of the hand on the blade while working. The set also includes a high-quality sheath made of Secure-Ex polymer, which can be attached to the belt with a belt loop or fastened to the TekLok buckle.
