COLD STEEL Steel Tiger 4.75"

The metal is a more basic one, so it won't keep edge for long, but it is what I need! I am using this as a gardening tool! The hookbill blade makes for a great mini hand sythe, so I am using it to cut the roots of some stubborn weeds below the soil! I looked for actual sythes and such, but I really wasnt sure what I was getting since they were no-name brands. With Cold Steel, I can look up the details of the metal and know that Cold Steel is a good name for inexpensive knives. It's working great for my odd needs. I wipe it clean and then spray it down with WD-40 after use (don't let the wd-40 rest on the rubber handle). So far so good!

Great knife for pruning, or harvesting some vegetables that have thick green stems. Not surprising, because this is essentially a sickle, which was originally and historically developed for this purposes. Some people in Midwest call sickle a corn knife because they use it often to harvest and cut corn stems. This is the primary usage for this knife, one would have to be completely delusional to select this knife as their first choice for personal defense.

cold steel don't disappoint me yet. I just got this karambit, and its really impressive. Solid and safe grip a difference of other karambits. Really sharp and the tip is like a surgical scalpel. More longer than i thought. High Quality Karambit for the price. If you love karambits you should get this one.

Knife is good. Sharp out of the box and fits the hand nicely. It has only one function and that is NOT a utility knife. The sheath is ok with one big drawback, the sheath/knife pops off of the belt clip and comes detached. The belt clip stays on the belt. This could result in the loss of the knife, at the worst possible time. A little adhesive placed in the right spot should fix that but Cold Steel could have done better. So only giving a four star rating overall.

It comes super sharp. The sheath is very nice. One of my favorite knives.

Looks badass, is durable as hell, and fun to learn to use

Seriously awesome karambit. Cold Steel is always a great idea when shopping or buying knives that have real world use. A lot of people don’t have tons of experience with this style blade and handle. It’s not the first choice for people seeking a knife for everything. But the reverse grip and massive sweeping blade is pure cool. For people who have to open boxes and cut thick lamented materials. For those who need to keep a tool upon their person while working on roofs or anywhere; and for those who collect serious knives for self defense and as art. This is a must. I saw this knife on John Wick and immediately knew it was Cold Steel and marveled at the martial artist use. This is a big hint about who will love this blade. Probably not my wife! But it’s truly a piece of history and art that I find in all my collection. Big enough for the largest of hands; priced for real people and real use. You will not return this tool.

Very sharp! Excellent self defence knife.
