Made in Japan San Mai III Trail Masters and Master Hunters are gone

[V-1]

Terrible news, the end of an era. The Japanese made Cold Steel blades were always my favorite.

My timing is impeccable. I sold my NIB Japanese Trail Master two months ago.

Yet another example of why I’m still buying all the “Old Steel” knives I can afford. All downhill from here with GSM, not surprised at all and it’s sad. Taking some knives to Bladeshow next year hoping Lynn might sign a box or two of some older pre-GSM models.
