Review: This dollar 4 dollar the best knife you can buy! GURANTEED! - This is by FAR the best knife I have ever bought or owned! WARNING: This knife is absolutely perfect for you if you have medium to small size hands, if you have large hands then unfortunately for you, this is not going to fit very comfortably in your hand! Otherwise this gets a 6 out of 5 for me! And the price is absolutely a steal! I am literally buying a second one right now cuz I love mine so much, just so I can have one for each hand! Lol! I am a huge knife collector, I absolutely love knives and I buy cheap ones from mtech, black legion etc. for under $10 all the way up to $100 plus range. And I have to say by far this is my favorite knife! Its is solid, light weight, sharp as hell, and comes with an amazing solid top of the line sheath! My only, literally ONLY issue with anything about this knife is the fact that the sheath does not come equipped or with a belt option BUT! They do sell a belt attachment separately for only $8 to 10, that I strongly recommend getting with this! It could not be made any better otherwise! Perfect length for good concealment but at the same time long enough to cause some critical damage to someone or something! I ALWAYS have my double agent on me or withing reach, it is without question my go to knife for everything! You will not be sorry for buying this absolute gem! This knife alone has made me a huge cold steel fan, and convinced me to try some of their other knives as well! Cold Steel may just be my favorite brand period!
Review: Tacticly effective. Here's how to wear it - There are many lovely, expensive knives on the market that you could wax poetic about. This isn't one of them. The grip is plastic, the case is plastic, and I found a little rust on the blade after taking it with me into a campground shower. However, when it comes to self-defense weapons, there is always the issue of weighing a weapon's usefulness to you against the danger of it being taken and turned against you. I don't foresee that happening here. When this thing is in your hand, it stays in your hand. The grip is absolutely deadly. PROS: 1. The grip. 2. The price. It is very affordable. I don't worry about taking it everywhere with me, I don't worry about water, because it didn't cost me an arm and a leg. Its value is in being able to have it with you, not having it safe at home where it can't help you if you should need it. 3. The secrecy. The blade is large enough to do serious damage, yet can be easily concealed. Strung on paracord, it is light and comfortable around your neck. After a minute of wearing it, I forget that it's there. 4. Accessibility. Here's how to optimize this knife: Ditch the cheap metal chain that comes with it. Get two feet of paracord. Starting at one end, weave the paracord through all the holes in the sheath, up from the bottom, around the point, and then down the other side, like you're sewing. When you've done that, you'll have lots of paracord left over. It's time to adjust it to the length that you want. The idea is to have the knife pointing upwards as it hangs around your neck, so pull the loop of paracord at the very tip of the sheath into as long of a necklace as feels comfortable for you. You may have to loosen your "stitches" to pull the paracord through. When you've got it at the correct length, tie the paracord ends into knots near where they exit the sheath, cut off the excess cord, and melt the end-knots with a lighter (I pulled the knots out of the sheath a few inches so as not to burn the sheath while I did this, then pulled them back tight against the holes). The advantage of wearing it this way is that, when you need to draw the knife from the sheath, all you need to do is get one hand under the front of your shirt, reach up to find the grips, and yank the knife down and out of the sheath. There's a safety clip on the sheath, but it releases without being pressed if you just pull firmly. Practice doing this one-handed, wearing the knife under your clothes. CONS: 1. Cheap, like I said. If only everything cheap were this well-made. Nothing about its cheapness compromises its safety or functionality. Wipe a little WD-40 every so often onto the metal, for rust. 2. You might forget it's there. Practice drawing it often, so that it becomes instinctual and panic doesn't cause you to forget to use it. Also, don't accidentally wear it to the airport or anywhere security will take it away from you. It would be easy to do. BOTTOM LINE: This knife is awesome. It's there when you need it, and it can be deployed quickly and effectively. Every person who worries about their ability to defend themselves should own something like this.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i get a horizontal carry sheath**
A: The sheath provides a number of holes through which you can mount the chain, however, as this is a "neck knife", there is no provision for clipping the sheath to a belt loop or boot. The sheath can be hung in an almost horizontal position. The handle (being the heaviest part) will hang lower than the point.

**Q: What is the blade length?**
A: A little over 3 inches. It is a nice lite knife easy for concealing.

**Q: How is this a "secure ex" sheath?!. I really like the knife but it pops out easily, terrible sheath!. Anyone else?**
A: Yes the sheath for mine was horrible too. I ended up heating the clip with a heat gun so it stays in the finger hole. now it seems to be working fine.

**Q: What kind of steel is the blade made of?**
A: It is some sort of high carbon stainless. The blade is hollow ground and can be sharpened nicely. If worn around the neck, make sure you clean and oil the blade frequently because the high carbon content will corrode quite easily.
A trip to the Cold Steel website will tell you what alloy the steel actually is.
