Cold Steel
SRK (SK-5) Fixed Blade Knife
The Cold Steel SRK (Survival Rescue Knife) is built for the toughest missions, making it a trusted choice for military and tactical law enforcement personnel worldwide. Specifically designed to endure the most demanding environments, this knife has been tested and proven over time. Its role as the standard issue knife for Navy SEALs during their rigorous BUDS (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL) training is a testament to its reliability and superior performance. Whether cutting through tough materials, building a shelter, or handling survival tasks, the SRK stands up to the challenge.
Made from SK-5 high carbon steel, the SRK blade offers excellent toughness, edge retention, and abrasion resistance, ensuring it holds up in harsh conditions. The 6-inch blade is finished with Cold Steel’s proprietary Black Tuff-Ex™ coating, providing corrosion resistance and reducing friction during cutting tasks. Paired with a durable Kray-Ex™ handle, which ensures a solid, non-slip grip in wet or challenging conditions, the knife feels secure and balanced in hand, even during heavy use.
The Secure-Ex® sheath provides a safe and reliable way to carry and access the knife when you need it most. Lightweight yet durable, the SRK’s 10.75-inch overall length makes it a versatile tool, compact enough for tactical or field use but tough enough for the most demanding missions.
This knife is proudly included in the Explorer Tier of the LYNX Go-Bag, making it a must-have for overlanding and off-roading enthusiasts who need a reliable survival knife for emergencies or daily utility. Whether you’re in the field or facing an unexpected situation, the Cold Steel SRK ensures you are always prepared.
