Cold Steel is famous for raising the bar in the knife
industry and
the Recon 1® tactical folders are setting a standard
that's hard to
beat. Why? Because they are as tough as nails. 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 imported Japanese AUS 8A stainless steel that's
been
vacuum heat treated and sub-zero quenched and the
handles
feature G-10 laminate scales artfully contoured and
scalloped for a
terrific non slip grip. Plus, they are held together by
the latest in
high strength mechanical fasteners and further
anchored by a
6061 heat-treated spacer. To complement their super
tough
blades and handles they are equipped with the
revolutionary Tri Ad
lock®, which practically precludes lock failure.
To complement their tactical mission each blade has a
tough,
black, Tuff-Ex finish. This helps the blade to resist
rust. To make
the Recon 1® as easy to open and carry as possible
Cold Steel have
equipped each knife with a thumb disc and small extra
strong
pocket clip. This clip is completely ambidextrous so
lefties please
take note.
