Cold Steel has a new video. Just after the 14 minute mark Lynn shows off what looks like a Voyager with a wavy blade like a kris. Anyone know what it is?
It would be fantastic if CS were to bring out a kris type blade hopefully in a 5.5" or 6" blade size. Despite Thompson's praise of large folders I think CS has backed off on bringing out large folders lately. On another note; it makes me groan when someone like the poster above wishes CS would bring out more small folders...the world is awash in small folders!!! Cold Steel is already producing more small folders than they should be for pity's sake.
I like that they make unique knives, but I don’t buy knives that can’t be sharpened easily so I won’t be buying this one. Also, I wish they would update the voyager’s handles.Sorry but that thing is fugly!
Double edged isn't possible because the outer edge is exposed when closed. There's no way to design it any other way, we've tried. Trying to make the blade thin enough to fit inside of the scales and be covered enough to not expose the cutting edge, makes the blade too thin. Spydie C104 ring any bells? Tiger/BUDK Godfather or whatever that thing is? It's really only possible with a stiletto and even then, the (poorly executed) ones that do exist are mostly single edged.
Sharpening: It's a self defense knife. How often are you going to use this on Amazon packages to the point of needing to sharpen it? Chances are if you use it for its intended purpose, it's going into an evidence locker forever and a new one would be purchased. A Kris was never intended to be a task blade.
