Cold Steel’s Toughest Fixed Blade & Toughest Folder

[DocJD]

I don't have one , but the Drop Forged Survivalist looks to be a great combination of value and toughness .

The 3V Trailmaster is too expensive for my taste, now. Wish they’d bring back the SK5 version, like with the Recon Tanto’s case.

I totally agree . The new 3V all are way too pricey for most Cold Steel customers . Me included !

Maybe they never actually intended to really sell these in quantity . More for bragging rights or ?

The "new" Cold Steel , just ain't the same .

The focus seems to be mostly on the new Mainland China products . Not what I want from Cold Steel .

Totally off topic Doc, but I’m having a blast with the Kershaw Camp knives. I got a Camp 10 last year, and recently picked up a Camp 14. They’re pretty awesome “honorary” Cold Steel blades lmao.

Maybe the 3V knives will go down in price, eventually? Only time will tell.

I think docjd nailed it.... survivalist drop forged and 4max scout... both affordable and hard use.....I think some were missing the point with this and just putting there favorite CS choice down
