Added pics and specs to CS-39LLB Cold Steel Laredo Bowie

Awesome is the only adjective that even begins to describe our Laredo Bowie. In fact, it really has to be seen to be appreciated, since mere words just don’t do it justice. It features a long, heavy blade made from SK-5 High Carbon Steel, which is flat ground to produce incredible cutting power and perfect balance. And, as an added bonus, it is given an absolutely ferocious cutting edge that terminates in a dagger sharp point.

Added pics and specs to CS-39LKC Cold Steel Kobun

In Japan, the underworld meaning of “Kobun” is “soldier” and that’s exactly what we have designed this knife to do; be a good soldier. Most boot knives are notorious for their paper thin, easily bent or broken points. In contrast, the Kobun’s acute point is highly resistant to this because it is reinforced by the full thickness of the blade’s spine which runs almost to the very tip. The Kobun’s handle was designed to offer minimum bulk and maximum grip. Its cross section was made as thin as possible, then deeply contoured and checkered to resist turning or shifting in the hand.

Added pics and specs to CS-39LGK Cold Steel Gurkha Kukri

The Kukri blade, with its markedly downward curved blade, has long been identified with the Gurkha Warriors of Nepal, the ferocious mercenaries who have who have wielded this blade for over 150 years in the service of the British Empire.

The Cold Steel Gurkha Kukri was inspired by Cold Steel President, Lynn C. Thompson’s close association with Dr. Maung Gyi, chief instructor of the American Bando Association, and a renowned martial artist with wide-ranging knowledge and skills. Under Dr. Gyi’s tutelage, Lynn gained insight into the full potential of the Kukri and learned it was not just a chopping weapon but a piercing, slashing, and smashing weapon as well. Smashing techniques allow the Kukri to function as a hammer or mallet or to deliver non-lethal blows in a self-defense role. A concentrated blow with the back of the blade can break bones or be lethal if directed at the head.

Added pics and specs to CS-39LDAC Cold Steel ODA

The ODA is designed to be a less expensive version of our own Military Classic. The ODA features an integral Kraton® guard/handle which substitutes for the Military Classic’s Micarta grip and stainless guard. The deeply checkered Kraton offers an even better grip than Micarta does and is equally durable. Instead of the leather sheath and stone, the ODA comes with a high tech Secure-Ex model. Secure-Ex is far more cut resistant than leather is and won’t rot, crack or warp when exposed to wet or harsh weather.
