Q: For the people with the problems does your knife have 8cr14mov on the blade or box ? If so you probably have a counterfeit one from China .

In response to her first answer. You are correct they say 8Cr13MoV on the website. These knives say 8Cr14MoV on the box and knife. Emphasis on the difference between 13 and 14. Hmmm.

Q: Is this a genuine oem cold steel sr1, or a replica/fake?

When you look at the buy box (the box on the right side of the page where you select buy) if it says ship from Amazon.com then it is shipping from us, the Manufacturer and is a genuine Cold Steel product. If it is shipping from anyone else it could be a 3rd party who has bought from us, or a knock off.

Q: Is this drop point blade?

The SR-1 and SR -1 Lite would properly be called a clip point. There is not much difference in net effect, just in terminology; it is just a matter of whether the tapering down of the blade shape figuratively suggests being "clipped off in a lopped way" versus "dropping off in a smooth curve". But the business end is still pointy either way.
