Don't buy Cold Steel anymore!

I think you're confusing two different companies. Don't remember the name off hand of the one that worked for CRK but Bradley was just a dealer of CRKs and had the Aliases made by Benchmade as a mass-produced "almost" Sebenza.

yeah, i might be thinking of scott cook.
 
When is somebody going to notice they also ripped off the Fallkniven F1 (Master Hunter)? :rolleyes:

But seriously... comparing the folding bush tingy to a Sebenza is a bit silly isn't it?? :confused:
 
One of the first pocket knves marketed by CS in the late 80s/early 90s was the Twistmaster. It was an Opinel style knife witha zytel handle and a CarbonV blade. I sold dozens of the at various construction sites I worked at, with an Opinel for a side-by side comparison. While the thin Opinel blade gets scary sharp, the thicker CS blade was preferred, because we tended to use pocket knives for everything, scraping off old gaskets, prying, ect. and fixed blades are not an option in a refinery. Since then I have owned and used maybe a dozen or more CS knives and hawks, and have not found them lacking. I also have Randals and Busses. They are superior, but at a higher cost. As far as CS ripping off the designs of others, you're right. No argument here. If the patents are still in effect, and and CS is not paying royalties, then they should be sued. IMHO

I'll also say my Carbon V Master Hunter is one of my favorite knives to use.

This is also one of my favorites. This is the favored knife among my hunting buddies. This is a very useable quality knife and the one I always carry when hunting big game .
