What three Cold Steel knives are you on the lookout for?

[1stID]

I have a bunch (more than I need, less than I want) Cold Steel knives, but am on the lookout allways for what I don't yet have.

What are you 3 models that if you'd like to buy, taking into account their cost and what you want to spend.

For me:

1. Imperial Tai Pan. I should have bought either of the last two I saw on eBay. They sold for 1500-1700, and looked like works of art.

2. Flight of the Intruder Trailmaster. A collectors item that was shown in the movie, and an awesome knife.

3. Urban Pal. One of the first Cold Steel models, the all steel, small push dagger. There are some very nice ones that are pictured here. I think I've only seen 2 for sale on eBay in 3 some odd years. One was rough, the other decent. But I haven't seen any in at least a year. Would love to add that to my collection of 80's models.

You mean like this one?

 

[Bobthebrewer]

Oops, that one is the Urban Skinner, my apologies. I have had that one since 1988

 

[Vlade]

I'm not on the lookout however a Cold Steel Voyager k r i s blade would fit right in with my cold steel collection.

 

[jlauffer]

At this point I have or had just about every CS that interested me, so not really on the lookout for anything. Maybe an Urban Hunter to go with my Shiv if I came across one for a good deal. And maybe an Engage someday to try out the new lock.

I really want a mini Bushman...

I really have no knives in this category anymore.

I don't include out of production knives in this list since I'm not going to pay collector prices.

At one time, when I was a pre-teen and teen, I wanted the Tanto, Urban Skinner, Urban Pal, and Urban Shiv, and I eventually got them all but the Shiv.

Later it was the Magnum Tanto line as well as the Recon Tanto, SRK, and Trailmaster, and I've had the Recon Tanto and SRK for years and over the past 13 months bought at least one variation of each size of Magnum Tanto.

Their remaining knives don't interest me as much as the ones I've already purchased.

I suppose I'd include the Trailmaster (only if affordable,) Outdoorsman, and Tai Pan.

A reissue of the Colossus with some different colorways and maybe some other variations of the Talwar in both sizes with colors would be cool.

Old, I wouldn't turn my nose up at a -
1) Stag Trailmaster, 2) Urban Shiv, or 3) Long swedge Bush Ranger Fixed.

2) New -
1) The Alligator Arkansas Toothpick (hope this actually comes out), 2) The Jumbo Stockman, 3) The smaller fixed blade Kris.

Odd - The Cold Steel Truncheon -

.

I never knew they made them.

I'd also like to see them reissue more older designs, even as sprint runs.

It's a neat little knife. I got this one for 80 bucks on eBay - about 4x more that I think they used to sell for.

2. Carbon V UWK

3. Recon 1 AUS-8 G-10

Awesome knives. I've only seen 2 Flight of the Intruder knives for sale - one on ebay that I bid up to about 700 before I let it go, I think final price was 900 or so. It was in great shape, and I think had all the paperwork that came with it. The other was on Arizona Custom knives, which sometimes has some good stuff on there.

There's a nice looking Tai Pan on there for 295 now - I'm always sort of surprised at the price these go for, compared to a nice Tanto. I guess the Tai Pan just doesn't have the nostalgia factor that the Tantos do for us 80's teens.

The UWK is very rare, though there's one on eBay now if you search for UWK. Alas, it doesn't have the factory sheath, which was most likely just the Kydex one at that time.

May want to remove the links. Linking to non-supporting retailers, or active ebay listings, is a no-no.

To make the 3V Trailmaster worth the price, a handle like the Intruder Bowie plus a leather sheath would be a couple good ideas.

 

[Onies]

I’d love to find another Broken Skull. That said, the Ultimate Hunter is on the list, but for some reason always gets bumped down (bumped for a Frenzy 2 a couple weeks ago) and I’d like to pick up a Mini Recon soon too.

Black Bear Classic not mentioned anywhere? Shoot, I got a second one missing the original sheath just because the thing is so wicked sharp and balanced.
