This clip is completely ambidextrous and its diminutive size doesn’t abrade and irritate the palm under protracted use like a larger clip would.

THE ULTRALOCK™ LOCKING MECHANISM As the knife is opened, the blade rotates around the locking pin via a larger cut channel in the blade tang. Prior to reaching the fully opened position, the spring loaded locking pin moves forward through the oncoming straight portion of the tang channel until it “dead ends”. At this point the blade is rigidly locked open and can’t budge as the locking pin is surrounded by solid steel which prevents any movement of the blade. In fact, this lockup is so strong it can only be overcome in two manners. The first is to apply so much force to the blade that the lock- ing pin shears off or breaks through the solid steel blade Recon 1™ Tanto Point Blade.

They are attractively designed too, with nickel-silver bolsters and faux jig bone handles. CLASSIC BIRD KNIFE Upland game and bird hunting must be one of life’s greatest pleasures. There’s little else that can compare to being afield on a crisp Fall day, surrounded by old friends, a few good dogs, and plenty of birds in the air. But cleaning and drawing the day’s bag can be a real chore if you don’t have a good bird knife. Our version has a long, narrow clip point blade, and vent hook that were specifically designed for cleaning birds. It will go a long way toward making the end of a successful hunt just as pleasurable as the beginning. CLASSIC TRAPPER CLASSIC TWO BLADE MUSKRAT This is one great small-game knife.

Both are flat ground and so sharp you can shave with them. While this kind of knife is often carried in the pocket, it is by nature a little on the heavy side, so we’ve in- cluded a sturdy black leather scabbard so you can carry it with you more conveniently. CLASSIC STOCKMAN The Stockman style pocket knife first emerged on the cutlery scene in the 1890’s and appears to have evolved from the popular cattle knife of the western plains. Our version is available in two sizes, we call them the Classic Stockman and the Classic Junior Stockman. Each knife comes with a clip point, sheepsfoot and spey blade. These blades have been honed razor sharp and will prove equally useful on the ranch, farm, or in the city.

TRAIL MASTER ® In 1986, Cold Steel® redefined the Bowie tradition with its intro- duction of the Carbon V® Trail Master.® This knife’s reputation quickly took on legendary proportions after Cold Steel® issued a challenge to the knife industry. The challenge was simple: “make a better knife.” But to this day, no factory we know of has suc- cessfully produced a better knife.

IN CARBON V®: Without a doubt, the most knife for the money ever built. In terms of sharpness, edge holding, strength and sheer cutting power, it will outperform any factory made knife we know of and 99% of all hand forged knives as well. You can see the evi- dence for yourself in our “MORE PROOF” DVD.

IN SAN MAI III® STAINLESS: If you want a Bowie that requires mini- mum maintenance and is practically immune to water, salt, or the humidity of a jungle environment, then this is the Trail Master® for you!

PENDLETON HUNTERS Our president, Lynn Thompson, bought the first knife custom maker Lloyd Pendleton ever made in 1973. Now these friends have collaborated to produce two of Lloyd’s most popular knives, we call them the Pendleton Hunter and the Pendleton Mini Hunter. In fabricating these knives we have tried to duplicate Lloyd’s work as accurately as possible. Both blades are hollow ground and honed to perfection and the handle’s cross sec- tions and contours match Lloyd’s hand- made knives exactly. For safety and dura- bility, we have dispensed with leather in favor of Secure-Ex™ for the sheaths. This material won’t rot or mildew and is far more resistant to cuts or punctures than leather.

Sheath: Leather Leather All of our feature a Carbon V® blade with a baked on, black Epoxy Coated finish to protect against rust, and deeply checkered Kraton® handles for a firm, non-slip grip. LTC KUKRI The curve of our LTC Kukri’s blade is very important because no matter what part of the blade makes contact with a target, the edge is always presented at an angle. This creates a shearing motion, so that the edge slices through the target as the weight of the blade drives it deeper. With its thin cross section it will easily cut wood, brush or other soft objects. GURKHA KUKRI Taking advantage of its downward curving blade and long, “V” shaped cross section, the Gurkha Kukri places its edge at an angle to a target, creating a powerful shearing effect. GURKHA The heaviest Kukri on the market, the blade KUKRI is almost an inch wider near the tip than it is at the handle, which shifts the knife’s balance point forward. This makes it possible for a substantial blow to be struck with minimal effort, using inertia alone to complete the cut.

GROSSE MESSER Known throughout as the “Big Knife”, the Grosse Messer hails from central and northern where, in far off days of old, noble- men and peasants alike relied on it to protect hearth and home from the rav- ages of brigands, cut throats, outlaws and other characters of ill repute. Its stout, wide blade and large handle meant it could be wielded in one or both hands and was capable of shearing through chain mail Grosse or cutting a man in half with a single Messer strike. Our version of this elegantly simple, Hand-and-a-Half Sword effective weapon sports a hand forged blade of 1050 high carbon steel that’s so sharp we have used it to split a telephone book in half, with a single blow! Two The guard and heavy pommel are made from blued steel and feature rosewood handle scales Handed riveted to the sword’s full tang. Great For convenience and safety, the Grosse Messer comes with a strong, handsome scabbard Sword crafted from wood and covered in black leather. It is reinforced with a steel chape and throat that has been blued to match the guard and pommel.

WALKABOUT The walking stick has earned its place in history. Every culture in human experience has utilized it in one form or another. To pay homage to this tradition and provide you with a quality tool, Cold Steel® presents the Walkabout. Fashioned entirely in the United States of second growth hickory specially selected to be free of all knots or flaws, the Walkabout is a prime example of the pride our craftsmen take in their work. With a length of approximately 38", a weight of 24 ounces, the Walkabout provides a sturdy balanc- ing aid for traversing rough, slippery or uneven ground. It also serves as a pointer, probe, lever and in emergency de- Samburu Spear fensive situations, a weapon. Each Walkabout is lathe turned from a 2" thick hickory blank which is then carefully sanded and clear coated to protect it from the elements. No other American hardwood is better suited for this purpose than tough, durable hickory which stands up to continuous use and hard knocks. Every Walkabout comes complete with a brass plated ferrule which protects the stick from cracking or the excessive wear as- sociated with concrete sidewalks and city streets.
