Cold SteelVerdict 3" AUS10A Tanto Point Blade 4.25" G-10 FDE Handle Everyday Carry Tactical Folding Knife with Tri-Ad Lock

This is a very lightweight EDC knife. It doesn't have liners but it has the strong TriAd lock. The G10 is thin and has a fine texture. My knife had a little side to side play which could be taken out by tightening the pivot screw. I had to put a little teflon tape on it to keep it from loosening. To get it to not have play it is a little stiff when opening. You can slow roll it easily but you can't quite flick it out 100%. I'm sure it'll break in. I got in on Prime Day for $55. I think it is worth that but no more.

of the hundreds (thousands?) of knifes I’ve purchased, this one is my favorite. It’s the first tsnto blade I’ve owned and the flat scales make it a perfect EDC knife.

A strong locking mechanism, decent weight for the size, a tactile yet non-abrasive texture on the handle scales, and a nice flat profile that makes for comfortable pocket carry. The blade has held a good edge and is easy enough to touch up. It's not as light as my Spydercos, but there's a lot to like.Having covered the positives, I'll say that I've never understood the hype over the tanto point that Cold Steel has always been so enamored of. I've always thought it to be among the most overrated tip styles available for knives. I bought this on an impulse to see if I had missed anything in that regard. After carrying this knife everyday for over two months I can say I still prefer other, more useful tip styles, but will continue to carry this one in situations where I can use it as a "beater" to spare other knives I value more.Heck, I may even get another Verdict, but with the spear point.

Everybody hating on CS new offerings, I love this blade. I’ve been carrying/collecting Cold Steel knives since the 90’s. To me it’s comparable to the bugout, lightweight slim but unlike the bugout it has a full grip handle reminiscent of the American Lawman. The only negative is the price for G10 and aus10 materials. You can get a lawman or recon 1 for about the same price with s35vn . I don’t understand the price but never the less it’s another Great EDC from CS. Came with a close to polished sticky sharp edge and I love the deep carry clip

Too much Hipe for the money you pay for this knife .

Buy one…you won’t regret it. This is my new favorite knife. It’s not the most compact pocket knife but it’s definitely compact for what it is. When the dodo hits the fan this is what I will be packing. Cold steel, if you read this review, add the speed pocket opener on the blade. I think it’s called the Emerson opener.

Amazon screwed up and sent me two somehow it acted like I ordered two of them anyway one came and I was able to immediately return it it was super stiff definitely needed adjustment the handle was very non ergonomic like a tiny Square in your hand would not recommend this brand hopefully Amazon will give me my money back for the one that got lost in the mail.

love the look of this knife.At first it feel really cheap. not what i expect of a cold steel knife.But, i enjoy how light it is, and how sharp the blade is out fo the box. Cold steel never disappoints in the out of box sharpness.While my initial feeling was of this knife feeling cheap, i have changed my mind, and it seems to be of good quality. Im carrying it daily, and havnt broke it yet.
