Cold Steel Leatherneck Tanto 7"

I’ve had this knife before and bought it again because it’s that good. The Cold Steel Leatherneck Tanto is razor sharp out of the box and holds an edge really well. D2 steel does a great job — doesn’t need constant sharpening. Solid, well-balanced, and built to last. Easily one of the best knives I’ve ever owned. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

Cold Steel has another winner with this one. I am a bit biased, I am a Cold Steel fan after all, but I give a fair shake to every product I get whether it be knife, guitar, or gun :) So let's get into it: Pros: -It is a time-tested design (after the Ka-Bar) with an improvement in strength. Instead of having a rat-tail tang, it is full tang. Added strength over a kabar. It also has a thicker guard, which I think is more preference. -Along with what I just stated, the blade is a tank. It is a solid thickness, in D2 steel, and especially with the tanto point, you would be hard pressed to break this blade. -It has a fair amount of belly, especially for a tanto blade. Good for slicing -It is ridiculously comfortable in the hand. Glad they didn't go too classic with the leather stacking (which I still love on a classic blade). But this is a handle that isn't going to wear out like the Cold Steel SRK, the texturing may wear a tiny bit, but overall the solid rubber I think will last forever (you can always had some athletic tape as well). -Value. Plain and simple. A giant hunk of D2, a Secure-Ex Sheath, and well designed for $60? This isn't Sk5 or Aus 8 or 4116. This is a high quality steel. It is TOTALLY worth it. Cons: -The Sheath... Okay listen, I know I just added that as a tenant of the "Pros", and I am usually a huge fan of the Secure-Ex Sheaths, but this one lacked retention. It there is a ton of rattle, and it doesn't retain the blade nearly as securely as I think it should. This can be mitigated, and I'll also be buying a leather sheath just to have one, but still, come one Cold Steel, give us proper retention! Overall, even with the sheath issues, I think that this is a home run for Cold Steel. VASTLY superior to the version in SK5 or 4116. It is a fighting knife but I have used it for everything from making kindly to batoning and it works like a charm. Great overall utility/fighting knife. Grab one, and mod it like I did. For those of you interested. I cut off the top guard, and sanded down the black coat to make this look so wicked. Thanks!

Awesome tanto. Always go full leatherneck. Can't go wrong. Sharp. Easy to sharpen. Thickkkk

I purchased the Cold Steel Leatherneck Tanto Point in D2 steel after determining that I needed one knife that could take whatever I dished out in bushcraft and could also serve me well in personal defense. The Cold Steel Leatherneck Tanto Point fit the bill. This blade is a work of art--a perfect balance of form and function. It not only is aesthetically beautiful but it is built like a tank and feels balanced in one's hand. It has a very natural, nonslip grip. But its understated beauty and finish quality belie a dark beast within. Make no mistake, this blade is a punisher. It can do what it has been designed to do...and then some. I have not yet put it through its paces, (since the first knife I ordered will be given as a gift, and my own knife is on the way), but I will be testing it out on some large, hard pieces of bamboo when it finally arrives. Cold Steel has certainly caught my attention over the last couple of years with some of the exceptional knives it has produced; of the knives that they currently make, I consider this Leatherneck Tanto Point and the Cold Steel Tai Pan among the most beautiful production knives that you could buy. Get this knife, and you'll wonder why you've waited so long to own one.

Really sharp blade and is well balanced. I am extremely happy with my new knife. I recommend it.

It's a cold steel so you know its made strong. The tanto tip is very robust. You can stab through pretty much anything without worring of the end breaking off, This is one heck of a knife, its strong tough, there is a very strong full tang , I have a ka-bar tanto and the cold steel i put above the ka-bar in this case. Came very sharp, will pierce through almost anything and everything. Unlike what some others said, the knife fits securely in the sheath. Overall I would say this is one of the strongest well made knives out there, and thats coming from a guy who has used and collected alot of knives.

I've inherited my fathers Vietnam era Marine's Kabar, a gift to my pop during the war. I bought this to see how they compare. The Tanto is a bit heavier (all blade width) balances about the same. Feels good in the hand.

I purchased this knife in the hopes of using it for personal protection and so far I can say I am truly impressed. This knife comes in a nice black box, with an instruction manual, and sheath with belt clip. The knife itself is very well made. The total length is 12 in, with the blade being 7 in. There is also a nice heft to it when it's being held and is very nice to hold. Also, it is extremely sharp out of the box, so be mindful of that. My favorite aspect of this blade is the handle. It is very well made, grippy, and sturdy. I never feel as though the blade will slide out of my hand when using, and that is a plus. I recommend this for anyone needing a sturdy, dependable knife.

Tarde mas de un año en decidir comprar este cuchillo, no fue hasta ver muchos comentarios y videos de este, que me decidí. Me siento mas que satisfecho con esta compra, Vale lo que cuesta e inclusive es mucho mas barato que otros cuchillos de esta calidad. Se siente con el peso correcto, poderoso, indestructible. Perfectamente equilibrado. El agarre es extremadamente bueno, mejor que muchos de alta gama. La funda es de algún polímero resistente. Entra a presión y no tiene juego, El broche también evita que cabecee. Se coloca de manera fácil en el cinturón, sin necesidad de tener que sacarte este. Es un cuchillo táctico, que nos sirve perfectamente como cuchillo de supervivencia. Ya quiero llevarlo a la montaña y dejare mis comentarios, pero estoy seguro que serán positivos. Es un cuchillo que me sorprendió por su calidad y diseño. Estoy muy contento con este cuchillo. No hace falta modificarle nada. Actualización. Lo use durante una salida a la montaña con mal clima por lo que tuve que procesar madera para fuego todo el tiempo, sometiendo al cuchillo a un uso muy rudo. Soporto la batalla con excelentes resultados y el filo esta como si nada La funda muy comoda la pintura protectora se le fue mas fácil que a otros cuchillos (mas caros) que tengo, pero cabe señalar que fue sometido a un exceso de trabajo y a mi no me preocupa que se oxide ya que el acero es inoxidable, ni me molesta que se vea usado, al contrario. Es un cuchillo que vale mucho la pena

Je cherchais un couteau de survie de qualité costaud et efficace, mais lorsque j'ai déballé le produit, enlever l'étui et me suis retrouvé avec ce couteau entre les mains j'ai été choqué par la qualité du design, à la fois la robustesse et la finesse de cet impressionnant couteau. Il tranche pratiquement autant voire autant que mon gros cutter Wolf équipé de lame haut de gamme japonnaise dont je me sers pour travailler. C'est bluffant et c'est un véritable coup de coeur. Ce couteau est MAGNIFIQUE, c'est la classe !!! BRAVO au concepteur 👍👍👍 J'ai envie de m'en acheter un 2eme pour le placer derrière une vitrine de d'exposition dans mon salon. Mise à jour: La lame du couteau est emoussé sur une grande partie de sa longueur, ce qui m'a laissé pensé que ce couteau avait déjà utilisé pendant un certain temps. Je pense que c'est le cas car la lame est emoussé notamment et surtout au milieu et non pas au niveau des quelques premiers centimètres du tranchant proche de la poignée puis au niveau du segment vers la pointe du couteau formant un angle à l'autre extrémité de la lame. De chaque côté et donc aux 2 extrémités, la lame reste bien tranchante mais ce n'est plus du tout le cas vers le milieu. C'est IMPOSSIBLE que ce couteau ait été conçu de cette manière. La lame doit être tranchante sur toute sa longueur c'est une évidence !!!

Tolles, schönes, stabiles Messer

A faca é excelente, além de linda!
