We think the AD-15 is worth every penny we ask for it, but we realize its price tag might be out of reach for many fans who would like to own one. Well, the AD-15 Lite is the economical version those AD-15 enthusiasts have been waiting for. Identical in look, style and construction, to the original, the AD-15 Lite features a blade made of Japanese 10A steel and an injection molded Griv-Ex handle instead of the costly 3D CNC machined grip that is used on the standard AD-15.
