Both of these have seen some use in the kitchen. They slice ham or carve a roast, chicken or turkey incredibly well.

I bought my mom Cold Steel Leatherneck SF, and also leather Ka-Bar sheath for it (the same combo as the one that friend of mine has bought recently).

She has arthritis and her fingers are thick, so she really likes big and fairly rounded handle it has, and the blade guard is also nice as she'd otherwise cut herself.
Also to add, she broke and bent plenty of kitchen knives in the past, and at like 5mm thickness, this should stay in one piece. So... as ridiculous as it sounds, it really might be the best kitchen knife for her 😂


But this made me think... how good would be tactical knives for kitchen use by general population? Sure thing not everyone has arthritis, but they do work well on large pieces of meat.

And yeah - this thread isn't really serious, neither am I saying tactical knives are better than dedicated kitchen knives for kitchen tasks... I'm just asking - could they be better for some tasks tho?
I have that one as well. I use it for my cooking while camping, but it's terrible for the kitchen. Because of the weight and the thick blade, she'll get wrist fatigue (won't cut deep without effort). It's not really balanced for food. You'd want something that's 'pivots' better towards bottom of the blade and not the handle. I have this one and it served me well. Maybe you can modify the handle to be thicker. I highly recommend a regular kitchen knife for cooking.
