I have at one time owned both but not at the same time. CS is closing out the Talon for cheap. That being said hands down the winner for robustness and if you are going to own a knife like that is the Talon. Way way better grip ergo's, alot better locking system, VG1 San Mai and just an over all excellent quality of build bar none. Don't let the nay sayers kid ya the Talon is a beast of a folder and has a more robust tip than the Civilian. But you're getting them both so you'll be good to go. Decide which you like more and carry it. keepem sharp

Anyone own one of these? I have and opportunity to pick one
up for a very, very good price and wonder if they are what
Cold Steel says they are. Also, are they made here or over
seas somewhere?

Thanks for your input

I was just having a little fun.:p Nothing to be embarrassed about. Besides, it's all this guy's fault the thread got bumped.;):D
I just ordered the last Black Talon on closeout ($130 shipped) from the Specpro site. It should be here in a day or two. I'll be waving it of course.
 
I am a new member and have an old black talon. Does anyone manufacture replacement blades for this puppy? Years ago I sent mine to cold steel and honored their warranty by grinding off and resharpening the now short point. That was disheartening like removing the front teeth. Any help out there?
