im looking for somewhere i can buy cold steel knife parts particularly an espada xl CPM-S35VN BLADE... can anyone help me out!!!
 
thank you i have been in touch with cold steel because i orginally bought my espada with aus-10a they will not replace the blade with s35vn and i was told they so not sell parts unfortunately i wish and hope they change this in the future
 
With their lifetime warranty I would guess they don't want people messing with their knives to that extent.
 
We do not sell parts, nor do we send out of the building anything other than pocket clips and screws. We don't do blade upgrades. We replace blades if they need to be replaced due to defect, with the same blade only. The S35VN blade is not designed to go in the AUS10 knife. They aren't cookie cutter in that regard, each knife is designed with it's own materials and should only be used as it comes. The blade may be thicker, thinner, use different sized washers, different size pivot pin, or any combination you could imagine. Things could be constantly changing between the same models as well. Huge liability to be trying to put in a blade that wasn't designed for the knife. Chevrolet wouldn't warranty your truck if you put a Ford engine in it, because it wasn't designed that way. It's not the same knife, just as it isn't the same truck.

This is good..........less shenanigans on the secondary market. I've almost completely stopped trading, purchasing used knives because it is too risky.

ypu make that blade with the other espada which i also own why would upgraded to the better blade be different i own it in aus-10a and s35vn and from using both obviously the s35vn is better but the G-10 handle offers a left handed pocket clip which sadly my 650 dollar polished aluminum and G-10 with the s35vn does not... trying to find a cts-xhp black on black G-10 aswell... i love the work you do at cold steel and almost every knife i own is, i just wish you did special orders or make your wonderful product more customizable and sold parts separately
