Just received this knife. I had purchased it for a flip, but I'm not sure I can part with it.
Fit, finish, and function are perfect and it's in brand new condition.

It's a wicked knife! Not sure of it's purpose, other than removing splinters and creating deep jagged wounds. It has a TRUE needle point and is RAZOR sharp. I think "Satan's Claw" would be a better name

The workmanship is top-notch. Cold Steel should bring back some of the Custom Series with a Tri-Ad lock and XHP or S35VN.

Awesome, thanks for the pics. High-end Seki-made knives are a dying breed. Even Spyderco has said they won't be making many folders there going forward apart from the FRN models.
 
Kinda like the look of this old model. There’s a movie in 2010 called “My Soul To Take” where the villain is using this knife for the whole movie
 
That’s cool. I have a serrated Spyderco Matriarch which is similar, but the Black Talon is likely much more versatile.
