SRM 9225-KB Folding Knife, Black

The SRM 9225-KB knife is a compact and lightweight folding tool from the SRM brand, designed for everyday carry (EDC) and outdoor activities such as camping and tourism. This model emphasizes minimizing weight and ease of handling: the skeletonized design with numerous holes in the blade and handle makes the tool extremely light — only 82 g, while the balance shifts closer to the hand, allowing for quick blade deployment and precise control of cutting movements.

The blade is made of D2 steel with a hardness of 59-61 HRC, ensuring high wear resistance and long-lasting edge retention. The factory Bead Blast finish creates a matte surface where minor signs of use are less noticeable. The 3.1 mm thick spine features a ribbed area for the thumb (jimping), allowing for cutting with additional force without losing control.

The handle of the model is a durable combination of G10 and carbon inserts. The rough G10 fiberglass provides high rigidity at low weight, and is resistant to moisture and temperature changes. Beveled edges reduce pressure on the palm and prevent chafing. Carbon fiber inserts add a stylish look and uniqueness to each piece.

Blade locking is handled by the Crossbar Lock — a spring-loaded transverse pin symmetrically located on both sides of the handle, ensuring convenient operation for both right and left hands. Compared to classic liner mechanisms, the Crossbar Lock better distributes load on the axis and maintains stability longer during intensive opening/closing cycles.

For convenient carrying, there is a removable pocket clip with an accent blue coating, and the lanyard hole allows for attaching a lanyard. This configuration makes the SRM 9225-KB a versatile choice for those seeking a reliable, stylish, and practical EDC knife.
