Cold Steel 92R39LSF Rubber Training Leatherneck SF Knife

This is nice and thick and excellent quality to practice with. It was affordable and perfect for what I needed.

My son loved the thickness and weight for the quality of this item. Purchased for his ghost face cosplay. One happy kid with a sturdy but safe likeness. Better quality than what you find at the pop up halloween shops.

For my profession I wanted something to use as practice for a real life scenario. After looking through a great amount of training knives and fake knives, I stumbled upon this rubber training knife. The color of this knife doesn't depict the everyday style of a knife so some people made be thrown off and discouraged by the resemblance. Using rubber as a description is a bit misleading as it's not the typical bendable rubber used everywhere. The rubber is a hard rubber capable of causing damage to something or someone so beware! The rubber knife has some weight to it, enough to feel if actually making contact. For training purposes the knife fairs well in weight and material used due to similarities of a real knife. For training I use this knife in defensive tactics and practice using a lot of defensive moves making this knife like the real thing. The knife does have good durability and will last a very long time. Dropping it or hitting an object barely leaves a mark, if any. The knife length is 12", so use the length to figure out which scenarios you would want to train with it.

Just put this trainer through sparring this afternoon. I would say it was an overall positive experience. The blade is solid enough to check the arm or parry shots but has enough flex to ease the stabs and slashes inflicted. The blades are durable like all cold steel trainers and do not warp or mar easily. The warnings say not for sparring purposes but as long as you are not being a total douche while sparring you should be fine. We were able to spar at full speed without suffering serious injury. If you are wary of your contact and don't spar like you want to genuinely injure your partner things will be fine. Solid contacts do leave minor bruising. If you are to much of a pansy for that kind of injury by all means stick to shadow boxing or practice on your teddy bears. This blade is noticeably lighter than any 7" blade, this is something I can live with.

This is a great trainer if you want to do disarms - it's very stiff and will force out fairly easily. I wouldn't not recommend it for sparring unless you like bruises, but I don't think that's what Cold Steel had in mind with this one anyway. It is very well made (Cold Steel, duh), and a great replica except for the blade width (where they couldn't possibly replicate the original). For the price, it really can't be beat. And it's a lot safer than wooden trainers.

Good training gear is important regardless of the skill that we are practicing or learning. In order to become and stay prepared, especially in a self defense application, getting as realistic as possible is imperative. Within our NTC Method, we focus on a lot of knife training and drilling. There are various tools, in the form of training aides, that need to be used which all depends on the mission at hand. When it comes to rubber training knives, Cold Steel Training Knives, are some of the best that I have used. Recently, I decided to review the Cold Steel Leatherneck training knife which mimics the USMC Fighting Knife made by Ka-Bar. Since I own a couple of Ka-Bars & have them with me in the field, it makes sense to use a training knife that has very similar dimensions. Cold Steel really seems to get it right when designing their training knives to resemble the real blade. I own tanto’s, M9’s, trenchers & other trainers that are made by Cold Steel. After years of use, they are still serviceable and I use them for my personal practice as well as with my students. The rubberized training blades are not always the best choice when it comes to specific training. If I am working with students on disarming & locking drills, I prefer an aluminum blade. But for most soft-work and especially with beginner students, my goto training knives are the “rubberized” Cold Steel blades. The term rubberized can be deceiving. Yes, these training knives bend but they are a tough piece of plastic. You can still cause serious damage to you as well as your training partner so be careful & wear eye protection. If you are in the market for new training knives, take a close look at these Cold Steel Training Blades. They may be exactly what you are looking for.

It’s a great training knife, just be aware that if training intensity is high, it is stiff enough to cause injury. Beginners may be better off using softer foam products even though they don’t last long, then using this one after a little experience. Another great option is to slide a foam tube over the polymer “blade” area of this item if stabbing techniques will be part of the training session. I’ve found that works very well.

First, this is not a soft rubber blade so the kiddos can pretend to stab each other without consequence. This is a stiff thick blade that has the same size blade and handle of my Ka-Bar USMC knife. It will hurt if you "stab" someone or fall on it. I use it to train in Pekiti Tersia, and it works well, except that one is trained to hold the knife with one's thumb on the back of the blade. The quillion of the "Leatherneck" style knife gets in the way of this. I still like to train with it, since the Ka-Bar is my go-to fixed blade. If you are looking for a good training knife for Pekiti, you might use Cold Steel's Recon Tanto version of a training knife which only has a forward-facing quillion. With that in mind, I may have to get a real Recon Tanto as well!

Es muy útil para el entrenamiento de técnicas de desarme empleadas en los cursos de defensa personal, tiene el peso aproximado y las medidas de un cuchillo ligero.

It's a good knife and is good quality I would recommend for its price and quality because it's really good and it's a perfect training knife.

Sehr gutes Trainingsmesser von der der Form her und Stabilität. Insgesamt unempfindlich auch gegen Nässe. Man kann sie auch deshalb gut reinigen, nach dem Outdoortraining z.b. Allerdings könnte es gerne ein bisschen schwerer sein. Dafür ruhig, ein paar Euro mehr kosten. Aber für diesen Preis ist es so ok..

This Cold Steel Leatherneck-SF Rubber Trainer is a great knife! It is both durable and fun. I recommend this trainer to anyone who is looking for a training knife that is very inexpensive. The rubber it is made out of makes the knife very realistic when using it because it is not very flexible. All in all I would rate this knife 5/5 because it is a great trainer.

軽い。形はしっかりしてる。ナイフをしっかり持つ練習にはなる。見た目より硬い。 ということで良い。重みのあるナイフと併用して練習すると良い。安全な商品である。よく出来ている。
