Yeah. They don’t live by their “World’s strongest knives.” Motto anymore really. Obviously worlds strongest knives is a sales pitch but still. I do enjoy them still but kinda concerned what their quality will be in the future. It’s like gerber and cold steel swapped places almost
Seen it tonight for the first time at my Walmart ..there was only one in stock and it wasn't even with all the other knives or in the case it was up top to where people wouldn't even be able to pay attention to it lol ..... 20 bucks and I'm in central Florida ...I already have a few fixed blades and just purchased a Gerber prodigy for camping so no need for these but they are still available for people who are interested
I saw that same knife set in a Kentucky Walmart. The little Ozark Trails folding knives are a far better knife than I expected for the price. Edit: Now we know! And knowing is half the battle. GI Joe!
Port Isabel TX had them very briefly at Christmas. No longer in stock. All the Christmas sets are gone. Just curious have you checked out the Ozark Trail fixed blade about the same size, full tang with a laminate set of scales? It is $20 just for one knife. Not a bad knife just to keep in the truck tool kit.
But for $25 you could pick yourself up a cold steel axis machete. 11" blade and wood saw along the spine. Or for $17 you could get yourself a cold steel bowie blade bushman in high carbon steel. This one can also be attached to a spear handle although isnt as ergonomic to use in the knife form
Generous stick with radius transitions is plenty for this knife. Not that I'd buy it but at least the sheath won't instantly dull the edge like their secure x.
I never even thought of x-ray knives. My company in York, PA recently got rid of an Xray. I could have helped you out. If we ever get another, I'll let you know.
Dennis, you are seriously the man! Also, love the vid, Jeff. I’ve been watching your channel since I was a kid (I’m 20 now) you’ve always been something me and my dad could watch together and even now I can watch or even throw on in the background. I hope one day you’ll make another knife as I never got the chance to get one of those sexy CLB1’s. Thank you so much for the content you provide all of us and I hope to continue seeing your videos pop up in my UA-cam feed for as long as possible.
Coldsteel isn't the brand it used to be after an ownership change

@@JosephVJP Well, they stopped that motto and went to "Anytime, Anywhere" even before the sale.
Another notable thing is that the tang has all smooth curves, which is stronger than sharp corners.

Good review. Not necessary to have multiple holes in the tang - the pinch points fore and aft in the tang serve as protection against pullout.
We have it in Montana. I cant remember how much though.
Anyone knows what steel the blade is made of?

I'm from northeastern Oklahoma and I have unfortunately never seen this knife in a Walmart
But I do have those Ozark trail folders year round

Better than I thought !
Looks like a good camp knife, ⛺.
I've seen Cold Steel at Tractor Supply Company last week.
COLD STEEL mini tac Bowie is the model I found there.
We had them during Christmas time for $23 here in NC they sold out quick!!
I picked this set up at Walmart in Massachusetts on clearance for $12
I'd be interested seeing how well it would perform as a camping knife.
Have you tried holding the knife up to a light bulb?
I’ve not seen them in Alabama yet
Love these videos ... thanks Dennis !
Not bad for the price. Cheap knives came a long way. Could be a decent beater.

Never saw these.. there were 2 like this for $20! Awesome!

CS is relying on nostalgia to sell their knives at this point.
Jeff is a mindreader. 🤣
Want to make it stronger? Drill 2 holes and insert some brass or steel pins.
Our Walmarts around here suck. I've never seen that knife before.
I saw them last week here in Pennsylvania at $20 .. I thought about grabbing them
"With no further ado -"
*inserts ado*
🤣 You know Im all about the Ado
I picked them up a few weeks ago at my local Walmart for $10. They were liquidating all the Christmas knife sets.
Not at VA WalMart where I am.

Nice
Once they make all their fixed blade knives full tangs then the current price will be worth it.
It's called 3/4 tang.... You're welcome
honestly cold steel seems to not be going so good, no new products for 2023 not even an annual catalog
no way! Cold Steel is competing with Orzark Trail. the 30 bucks GI Tanto is stronger and better sheath than this.
Word of ADVICE dont buy walmart knives. Stick to buying on the known websites
Rat tail tang.😢
Encapsulated rounded stick tang not rat tail
I can see it without Xray... ColdSteel is going downhill... The old School Voyager, AK47 Folder etc are Classics
Nice mayo spreaders for a camping trip!😂
