CARBON V Some of our Cold Steel knives are made from Carbon V, a high carbon, low alloy cutlery grade steel. This steel is superior in performance to most other steels due to its chemistry and also because of the close controls that we maintain at every stage of the manufacturing process. These controls begin at the steel mill where Cold Steel specifes the desired microstructure of the steel. Once smelted, each steel shipment is microscopically checked for structural quality, cleanliness and chemical content by an independent metallurgist not in the mill's employ. The blades are then blanked parallel to the rolling direction of the steel plate to optimize grain fow along the length of the blade. The fnal step is a precise heat treatment sequence that was developed by Cold Steel specifcally for this custom steel. This heat treatment process is one of our most highly guarded trade secrets. It was arrived at over several years by using an exhaustive series of practical and metallurgical tests and observations.AUS STAINLESS STEELSThe words stainless steel are misleading, because, in fact, all steel will stain or show discoloration if left in adverse conditions for a suffcient time.Steel is made stainless by adding Chromium and reducing its Carbon content during the smelting process.There is a serious performance trade-off with stainless steel. As the Chromium increases and the Carbon decreases, the steel becomes more stainless.But, it also becomes more and more diffcult to sharpen, and the edge-holding potential is seriously impaired.This is usually why most stainless knives are rarely razor-sharp and quickly lose what little edge they have. In contrast, at Cold Steel we use AUS 8A Stainless, a high carbon, low chromium steel that has proven itself to be the ultimate compromise between toughness and strength, edge holding, and resistance to corrosion.AUS 6A is a medium to high carbon stainless which is tougher than ATS-34, 440C, ATS-55, etc., but still holds a good edge.This means it is particularly well suited for heavier, longer blades that are subjected to a lot of stress while chopping and hacking.Like our other stainless steels, AUS 10A is a high carbon variety.It is equal in strength and toughness to AUS 8A but has the extraordinary advantage of an additional 20% in edge holding ability.This ability to retain a sharp edge for a longer period of time gives it a wider performance advantage over other, more common stainless steels.The only knives Cold Steel is currently manufacturing in AUS 10A Stainless steel are the Triple Action Folding Knives.SAN MAI III

San Mai means "three layers". It is the term given to the traditional laminated blades used by the Japanese for swords and daggers. Laminated construction is important because it allows different grades of steel to be combined in a single blade.A simple way to think of this type of construction is to imagine a sandwich: The meat center is hard, high carbon steel and the pieces of bread on either side are the lower-carbon, tough side panels. The edge of the blade should be hard to maximize edge holding ability, but if the entire blade was hard it could be damaged during the rigors of battle. For ultimate toughness the body of the blade must be able to withstand impact and lateral stresses. Toughness is generally associated with "softness" and "fexibility" in steel, so that, surprisingly, if a blade is made "tough" the edge will not be hard enough to offer superior edge holding. San Mai III provides a superior blade with hard (higher carbon) steel in the middle for a keen, long lasting edge and tougher (lower-carbon) steel along the sides for fexibility.This laminate is 25% stronger than our incredibly tough AUS 8A Stainless.420 SUB ZERO QUENCHCold Steel has always sub zero quenched the blades that we have manufactured in Japan, and we are now adding this often omitted, yet crucial, process to the heat treating sequence of the new blades we are making in Taiwan.Typically, stainless steel blades suffer from retained austenite after they have been heated to critical temperature and then air or gas cooled.The big drawback of this procedure is that it doesnt get the blades cold enough to assure complete transformation from an austenite to martensite grain structure.Only by freezingsub zero quenchingstainless blades to 120 degrees below zero (Fahrenheit), will the austenite be completely transformed to martensite.This, in turn, assures the blade will be as hard, strong, and wear resistant as it can possibly be.51505150 is a medium carbon, low alloy steel that is particularly well suited to the hot forging process. This steel has the properties to harden well, making it ideal for heat treating blades that have a very thick cross section such as tomahawks, axes, etc.After the quenching process, blades will be completely hardened at Rc 55-60.The combination of carbon and alloy elements also produces an extremely tough and impact resistant steel in the hardened and tempered condition which is essential in a tool which is hafted and or thrown.FOLDING KNIVES-................... 4-13VOYAGERS, SCIMITAR, GUNSITE FOLDERS, LAND/SEA RESCUE, VAQUERO FOLDERS, BLACK TALON, NIGHT FORCE, RECON 1, ARC-ANGEL, TRIPLE ACTION,TI-LITE, TRAIL GUIDE, PRO-LITEHUNTING/OUTDOORS............ 14-17MASTER HUNTER, BIRD & TROUT, PENDLETON HUNTERS, OUTDOORSMAN, FILET KNIVES, ALL TERRAIN HUNTER, TRAIL MASTER, LAREDO BOWIEALL TERRAIN............................ 18KUKRI SERIESTACTICAL FIELD KNIVES ........... 19-21UWK, ODA, & OSS, SRK, BLACK BEAR CLASSIC,R1 MILITARY CLASSIC, RECON TANTO, PEACE KEEPERSEDGED WEAPONS TRAINING..... 22-23WARRIORS EDGE VIDEO SERIES, RUBBER TRAINING KNIVESBOOT KNIVES ..................... 24-25SPIKE, MINI CULLODEN,KOBUN, DES-PERADO, SAFE KEEPER JAPANESE STYLED BLADES........ 26-27TAI PAN, OYABUN, TANTO SERIESSWORDS ........................... 28-37JAPANESE SWORDS, TRADITIONAL CHINESE SWORDS, WESTERN SWORDSUTILITY KNIVES.................... 38-39K5 & K7 KITCHEN KNIVES, MINI PAL, READY EDGE, URBAN PAL, SUPER EDGE.HAI HOCHO, MINI TACKITCHEN CLASSICS ..................... 40PROMOTIONAL ITEMS .................. 41DISPLAYS, APPARELSPECIALTY ITEMS................... 42-47TRUE FLIGHT THROWER, TORPEDO, CAT TANTO, DELTA DART, BATTLE MACE, SPECIAL FORCES SHOVEL, BAD AXE, TOMAHAWKS, MACHETES, SJAMBOKS, SPEARS, BUSHMAN SERIES, STICKS & STAFFSON THE COVERTHE LAREDO BOWIE.READ ABOUT IT ON PAGE 17 OF THIS CATALOG.PROPS, COURTESY OF:THE PHIL SPANGENBERGER COLLECTION.OUR 1996 DOCUMENTARY VIDEO, PROOF SENTRIPPLESOFCONTROVERSYTHROUGHTHE KNIFEWORLD.BUTTHISNEWDVDWILL SHAKETHEVERYFOUNDATIONSOFTHEKNIFE INDUSTRY.SIMPLYPUT,OURCOMPETITORSGROSSLY EXAGGERATE,THEYSUGGESTANDIMPLYHIGH PERFORMANCE, RATHER THAN PROVE THE WORTH OF THEIR PRODUCTS.COLD STEEL BACKS ALL OF ITS CLAIMS WITH HORRENDOUSTORTURETESTINGANDGRAPHIC DEMONSTRATIONS.WE PROVE THAT WE MAKE THE WORLDS STRONGEST SHARPEST KNIVES AND DOCUMENT IT ALL ON VIDEO TAPE.SEE THE EVIDENCE FOR YOURSELF.WE HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE...AND THATS A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN WE CAN SAY FOR OUR COMPETITORS.While informative andentertaining, MOREPROOFdoes containgraphic demonstrations of cutting power that may be too intense for some viewers.The tests shown in the video are dangerous and should not be duplicated.

Our Voyager Series is the latest generation of these ultra-light knives and they are sure to be the standard by which others are judged for years to come!The newly redesigned Voyagers are made from the same premium stainless steel that goes into our famous Tanto. They feature precision milled and hand ftted partswithextrastiffsprings. Thisprovidesalockthatis saferandstrongerthanmost traditionalfolders.Theblades are extremely wide and ground thin at the edge for tremendous shearing potential. This thin edge allows us to hone the blade to astounding sharpness. Plus, the cutting surface is continuously curved along its entire length for the most effcient possible slicing action. Because of the high carbon content in the stainless steel, youll fnd that the sharpness really lasts a surprisingly long time. If you like serrations, youll really appreciate our exclusive pattern. It offers the aggressive ripping action of serrated teeth, but with a twist. Our design features groups of very small teeth separated by wide, shallow arcs. This results in the benefts of both a plain and a serrated edge, so that the knife still cuts smoothly through almost any material. The Voyager Series offers all the advantages of the latest in lockback construction technology including lightning-quick one-handed opening, light weight and strength, yet without the necessity for unsightly humps or holes in the blade. The result is anappealinglookwithverymodernstyling.Everydetailhasbeendesignedfor maximum performance from the reinforced pivot pin and stainless steel pocket clip, to the grooved thumb shelf on the back of the knife for extra traction. Each handle in the newly redesigned Voyager Series is now more oval shaped in cross-section. Technically, the handle is a full 20 percent thicker, increasing strength and stiffness. Yet, the handle doesnt feel or appear thicker due to the improved contoured design. As tools, these lightweight, super sharp knives are appropriate in almost any environment from hunting and camping, to hiking and general utility chores. They can also readily fll specialty functions such as a boat or river knife, a chute knife or demanding police/survival/rescue applications.All featureAUS 8AStainless SteelBlades with Zytel handlesWeight:Overall:Blade Thick:Blade Length:X2 VOYAGER(SHOWN AT ACTUAL SIZE!)MOST POCKET KNIVES FEA-TURE POLITICALLY CORRECT BLADES WELL UNDER 4" IN LENGTH.ADMITTEDLY,A LESSSCARY,SHORTER BLADEDOESHAVEITS USES,BUTITISTOTALLY INADEQUATEFORQUICKLY RESOLVINGEMERGENCY RESCUESITUATIONSTHAT REQUIREASUBSTANTIAL CUTTING TOOL.YOU SEE, A SHORT BLADE JUST DOESNT HAVE THE CUTTING POWER OF A5"OR6"BLADE,AND EMERGENCIESWILLSELDOM BE SOLVED IN TIME BY LABO-RIOUSLYSAWINGBACKAND FORTH WITH A SWISS ARMY KNIFE OR LEATHERMAN TOOL.

The frst is; it is highly resistant to scratches and abrasions while keeping rust at bay. Secondly, it eliminates glare and light refections which may give its user away. The third advantage is that it's a superior lubricant which causes the blade to slip through even tough materials with markedly less friction. This means you can cut deeper and far longer than with a non Tefon coated blade.To make the Recon 1 as easy to carry as possible, we have equipped each knife with a small, extra strong pocket clip.This clip is completely ambidextrous and its diminutive size doesnt abrade and irritate the palm under protracted use like a larger clip would.AS THE KNIFE IS OPENED, THE BLADE ROTATES AROUND THE LOCKING PIN VIA A LARGER CUTCHANNEL IN THE BLADE TANG.

Each has been carefully fashioned to look as realistic as possible so they can be effectively used in solo practice, training drills, disarm drills, and demonstrations and any other activity where you want a reasonably close approximation of realism but not the extreme danger and riskassociated with an actual knife.The Santoprene rubber blades are soft enough to prevent the likelihood of most bodily injury.They do however, have a level of frmness that might cause injury to the face or the eyes, so it is recommended that appropriate eye protection or a fencing mask is utilized at all times when using a Cold Steel rubber training knife.I am not enamored with the saying: If you get in a knife fght, expect to be cut.That saying condemns even a highly skilled knife fghter to be wounded, dis-fgured, disabled or even killed if ever forced to put his training with a blade to the test.This is why I have spentanenormousamountoftimeinfullcontact sparring with my train-ing partners to develop a knife fghting method that allows the properly trained fghter to vanquish his enemy with minimal risk of being cut or stabbed in the process.IhaveborrowedheavilyfromWesternFencing, and Filipino Martial Arts, including Lameco Escrima, Japanese Ken Jitsu, and Western Boxing as well.I have even added techniques and methods that are entirely my own.The result of this effort is a knife fghting method which stresses the avoidance of close range in favor of long range techniques aided by footwork, rhythm, timing, speed and superior tactics and strategy.Recognizing that many of my customers cant attend our seminars on this subject, I have condensed our basic course onto 6 video tapes so you can now study, and train in the comfort and convenience of your own home.Whats more, I guarantee that if you study them faithfully and practice diligently with a training partner you will gain the skill and ability necessary to give you a huge advantage if ever forced to defend your life or a loved ones with a fghting knife.Lynn C.
