Cold Steel® is famous for raising the bar in the knife industry and
their Recon 1 tactical folders are setting a standard that’s hard to
beat. Why? Because they are as tough as nails and will cut like a chain
saw! Every facet of their construction has been over engineered to make
them as strong, durable and effective as humanly possible. The blades
are made out of AUS 8A stainless steel that’s been vacuum heat treated
and sub zero quenched, and the handles feature G-10 laminate scales,
massively reinforced by heat treated steel liners and five locking
bolts. To compliment their super tough blades and handles, they each
feature our revolutionary Ultra Lock™, which practically precludes lock
failure.
To compliment their tactical mission, we have given each blade a tough
black Teflon finish. Their testing has shown this coating or finish
offers three major advantages for use on tactical blades. The first is;
it is highly resistant to scratches and abrasions while keeping rust at
bay. The second is; it eliminates glare and light reflections which may
give its user away. The third is; it’s a superior lubricant, which
causes the blade to slip through even tough material with markedly less
friction. This means you can cut deeper and far longer than with a
non-Teflon coated blade.
To make the Recon 1 as easy to carry as possible, Cold Steel has
equipped each knife with a small, extra strong pocket clip. This clip is
completely ambidextrous so lefties take note. What’s more, its
diminutive size doesn’t abrade and irritate the palm under protracted
use like a larger clip would.
Features a 4.00 in. AUS8A steel with black Teflon finish blade and a
5.33 in. Zytel handle. Comes complete with a ambidextrous stainless
pocket clip. |
