Cold Steel Hold Out 6" Tri-Ad Lock (Lynn Thompson Personal Vault Edition w/ COA)

The Cold Steel Hold Out 6" Tri-Ad Lock (Lynn Thompson Personal Vault Edition) 

*Minor Box wear as these were personal displays

Listen up, you beautiful bunch of crayon-vampires and mouth-breathers. This isn't some dainty tooth-pick designed for opening utility bills at a desk job. This is a six-inch slab of cold, hard violence pulled directly from the personal inventory of Lynn Thompson himself.

When you deploy a folder with a six-inch blade, you aren't asking for permission—you're taking over the room. Outfitted with Andrew Demko’s legendary Tri-Ad Lock, this pocket sword locks up tighter than a drum, ignoring shock, abuse, and sheer bad judgment. Each unit comes straight out of Lynn’s private vault, packed with a signed Certificate of Authenticity so you can prove to your fellow window-lickers that your gear was blessed by the godfather of cold steel.

Pick your weapon and stop acting like a socket-wrench slinging savage:

Flavor 1: The Serrated Black-G10 Street Cleaver (CHLT00299)

• The Blade: A massive 6.0" Satin-Finished Carpenter CTS-XHP Stainless Steel drop point blade, fully loaded with razor-sharp, meat-shredding serrations that tear through heavy rope, webbing, and bad decisions like butter.

• The Scale Armor: Textured Black G10 scales over a 7.13" closed chassis—delivering an aggressive, non-slip bite that repels shop grease and road grime.

• Vault Status: Comes certified directly from Lynn Thompson's personal collection.

Flavor 2: The Tactical OD Green DLC Spear Head (CHLT00494)

• The Blade: A stealthy, 6.0" Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) Coated CTS-XHP spear point blade engineered for absolute non-reflective piercing and severe corrosion immunity.

• The Scale Armor: Tactical Olive Drab (OD) Green G10 handle scales built for high-friction grip in low-light environments.

• Vault Status: Certified from Lynn Thompson's personal collection—locking in maximum workbench flex clout.

The Shared DNA (Cold Steel Hold Out Platform)

• 6.0" CTS-XHP Powder Metallurgical Steel Core: Premium American powder steel built to hold a wicked, razor-sharp edge through relentless field abuse.

• The Tri-Ad Lock Mechanism: Andrew Demko’s patented lock setup designed to withstand hundreds of pounds of raw impact without failing—completely deleting blade play from your existence.

• Massive Pocket-Sword Footprint: Over 13 inches of total open authority that still folds down to fit right in your pocket.

• Deep-Carry Pocket Clip & Thumb Stud: Reversible tip-up clip paired with dual thumb studs for high-speed, one-handed deployment.

If you're still carrying a tiny gas-station folder that flexes when you slice cardboard, your setup is a joke. Lock in a six-inch vault-fresh pocket monster, stop making excuses, and drop the Hold Out straight into your lineup.
