Cold steel recon 1 ?

I have Recon 1 the regular size . It is good knife but the AUS 8 is s%#&t if they did use at last 440c It would be great knife ! I will never buy anything less than AUS 10 or 440c in stainless . I love the knife but if intended for use u will have to sharpen it every 1-3 days of light use.

I dont think it is s%#&t. It did better than my tenacious, rat and cryo steels that I tried. But this kicker is that it got sharper than most steels ive owned. I beat the heck out of the blade and it would not get damaged. Yes it would dull but I could cut metal ties, and smack it against rocks when cutting landscaping fabric and rubber without more than a little deforming.
 
In New York City the only knife I can legally carry is a non locking knife with no bigger than a 4 inch blade. I don't really edc knives like this but I would sure like to. I use them for work and camping. No one really says anything.

That sucks.
 
I picked up a Recon 1 on a whim.

I was really surprised how much I ended up liking this knife.

The fit and finish are excellent. It feels really good in the hand. Very well balanced.

It is a bigger knife, like a Spyderco Endura. If you like smaller knives, maybe a Mini-Recon?
 
Cold Steel Recon 1? Heck yes. Get one in every size.
