    The SOL Core Lite survival knife not only gives you a sharp blade, but it also includes a rescue whistle and LED light integrated into the handle.

    • AUS-8 steel blade holds an edge and sharpens more easily than common steel blades; blade is engineered to excel at survival tasks such as whittling and slicing
    • Blade locks open for secure use; long handle and short blade keeps the knife from getting unwieldy when you're doing tasks that require good control
    • Alert rescuers with the 100-decibel, pea-less whistle that is integrated into the knife handle
    • Bright LED light located next to the blade lets you continue working when the sun goes down; LED operates on 2 CR1220 batteries (included)
    • The SOL Core Lite survival knife weighs in at a scant 1.4 oz.
    • Includes a removable belt clip

    Imported.

      Comments about SOL Core Lite Survival Knife:

      the blade is short, but good and SHARP, has a good clip to attach to your gear, the whistle isn't very loud, but any whistle is better than none at all, and it's not seperate item to get lost.the light is bright for it's size, but then I'm hoping it's not the only light you have in your kit--it's more of a handy light to help you find your PRIMARY flashlight, than your 1 and only light, tho in a pinch you could get by with it. All in all a good product, I'll be buyin more for the glovebox of each of my vehicles and as E-kit items for the family.

          Comments about SOL Core Lite Survival Knife:

          I'm always trying to reduce my backpacking weight. I looked at this "tiny" knife and didn't take it too seriously, with it being as small as it was. The backup flashlight and bright color attracted me to it. Went ahead and purchased it. Very pleased that I did. There is a clip on it where I can attach it to my backpack shoulder strap for immediate access. After usage, whoever sharpened this blade must have worked for samurai sword craftsmen! I'm currently at the point where I don't even bother taking my sheathed knife with me anymore.

          Comments about SOL Core Lite Survival Knife:

          This versatile, compact and convenient product lacks durability. When I actually had to use it in a survival situation the knife blade bent within a few uses and the flashlight on/off switch had been inadvertently depressed while in my pack, draining the battery before I could use it.
