Cold Steel Code 4 Review Results After Rain/Sharpening/Being dropped. You name it.

[@solomonkane408]

My 16 yr old daughter bought this for me last year and I’ve carried it a few time but for the past month I have went beast mode on this knife cutting everything and it holds up and the slim carry is a dream

[@BeezBlades]

It feels like a fixed blade. It's so solid!

[@BigRedEDC]

Definitely a beast! Will handle pretty much anything you throw at it!!

[@unacarafea567]

Code 4 is my favorite Cold Steel knife. The egos and size is like a custom made knife for my hands. I did put anti-slip material on the very slippery scales the minute I received it. That made it a super, everyday carry knife.

[@toddcarr.]

Very cool looking knife. Definately prefer the cold steel knives with larger handles such as SR1 and 4MAX but for a thinner blade work knife the recon 1 and American lawman feel much better in hand. Cold steel definately nails the heat treat on all their knives. Keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.

[@BeezBlades]

I really like the look of the Recon 1. It's one on the huge want list for sure.

[@mynamesjustbill1583]

I picked up the drop point Code 4 a few weeks ago and have been putting it to hard use bordering abuse at work daily. No finish scuffs or wear and the blade holds up great! I can’t believe it took me so long to get one!

[@BeezBlades]

I'm super impressed with the finish. I thought it would get scratched up fast, but it didn't.

[@airadaimagery692]

Oh yeah, this is a really good knife imo... Most useful knife in my rotation! I’ve skinned out many deer with my Code 4. Not the one with the tanto blade though...

[@timbo4374]

I like my Code 4. It fits my hand fine, and it's easy in and out of the pocket. It is kind of slim though, and that thinness kind of affects the grip a little. I'm ok with it, but it definitely does feel different in hand than my other Cold Steel knives.

[@BeezBlades]

I'm trying to decide on a smaller, budget Cold Steel to fit "my" hand. This one is solid though!

[@jn651]

Nice review. The only comparable Cold Steels I've handled were both blade styles of the Air Lite and that thing has a really thin handle too (and I prefer grippier handles than that aluminum). So my hands measure almost exactly like yours and I probably wouldn't be too excited about using this one either. Still, lots to like in theory, and no denying it holds up to a litle abuse!

[@cheatobandito]

Damn beez your new videos are a night and day difference from your earlier work lol love you bro

[@rustycleaver8231]

Great review. I agree this knife is really tough. I beat the heck out of mine for about a year but ended losing it in a lake while fishing. I replaced it with a Twosun TS72 in m390 and never looked back. Similar in size and ruggedly built but much easier to deploy and better pocket clip.

[@BeezBlades]

Thank you! Oh man, that sucks! I'm gonna check out that Twosun.

[@BeezBlades]

That's a tough-looking knife. I like the compound grid..

[@mattharvey968]

Definitely on the want list!! Great review!

[@BeezBlades]

Thank you!

[@danielsmit3524]

I love my Code 4. So much so that I now have 3. As for opening and closing, it just takes practice. If you realy nead to get it open quickly and under circumstances where the deployment must not fail, I find that it shakes out very nicely. You should also give the AD10 a try. That is great quality! But it is a bit bigger....

[@BeezBlades]

I have an AD10 on loan, and I will be checking it out soon! I'm looking forward to it!

[@idwolverine1867]

Well I know what my next Cold Steel will be now 👍 great review

[@BeezBlades]

Thank you brother!

[@TopDog8762]

Checking some older Beez videos. How come you do do the super seven anymore? Anyway, I have this baby and love it, but since this video I have also become familiar with the Engage. I just purchased the Cold Steel Engage 3" because that are pretty much on universal sale July 2023. Can't wait to compare the two. I would compare it to the 3.5" Engage (which I already have) much that is a much thicker knife.

[@sobxscooter8157]

Day 3 without a cut 🤪 I think the American lawman would be my choice before the code 4. All are behind AD-15 and AD-20.5 on wish list.

[@BeezBlades]

That 20.5 though...Bout to do that review too.

[@jakefromohiostate]

I absolutely love this design. I had the all black spear point variant. I just couldn’t get passed the slick aluminum scales...they are terrific in the pocket and very slim...just to slick when I used it. I have been thinking about getting another one just so REC could cerakote it for me, maybe that will add some traction

[@BeezBlades]

Oh! That's an excellent idea!

[@BrandonGavin_EDC]

If you all want better grip on it, get a sheet of grip tape from a local skate shop or online, I recommend black magic as it’s not too thick, trace the handle and cut the grip tape out and put it on.

[@jakefromohiostate]

@@BrandonGavin_EDC I’ve seen several people do that, I tried it on a smaller knife…not a fan. Just personal preference

[@jeremyspaulding7735]

Cold steel builds a tough knife for sure. My ad 15 is a favorite tough work knife for me. Great review 👍

[@BeezBlades]

I'm looking forward to checking that one out! The knife world is my oyster.

[@jeroenvoss6231]

I'm not a tanto fan so i wouldn't go for that bladeshape, but if you ever wanted a knife that is built for hard use, this is the knife you want. I do have the Spartan and the Ti-lite and i love them this one is high on my wishlist. Thank you for the review.

[@BeezBlades]

You are welcome! That Spartan has a mean recurve, and talk about a handle! Man that thing's not going anywhere. The Ti Lite looks like a sticker for sure. First time I've looked at that one was today. I'm looking at more of them to see what I want next.

[@jeroenvoss6231]

@@BeezBlades and there are so much of them, CS has a lot of very good knives that are just a little bigger hahaha yeah right they are beasts!

[@truthlesslouw]

Oooh yeah, been waiting for this one

[@rickkerans8485]

Just subbed you last night during Brother John's live.

[@BeezBlades]

Welcome aboard! Thank you for getting me over the 600 mark!

[@anthonybates4245]

Adding this to Amazon wishlist lol only cold steels I have had or do have is the G.I. tanto and the tuff lite. Not a huge fan of lock backs anymore, but this has piqued my interest. Great job Beez

[@BeezBlades]

Thank you! Yeah, lockbacks aren't my fav, but I also feel like I need a few in the collection!

[@_proex]

Papow! 👍🏼I like it cold steel makes a sexy Tanto. Glad he found that thing. I’m running low on peanut butter now thanks to someone.

[@BeezBlades]

Hahahaha. I think I may have a pb&j for lunch!

[@Canadaman4403]

Come on if you can’t open n close is it really that great?

[@michaelupchurch4783]

Just used ur link to buy clip point blade version on sale for $78

[@oldmanronerickson2221]

Another review I missed, NOT! Yes this is a cool knife.

[@BeezBlades]

Hahaha. I can always count on you bro!

[@Thomas-dz4eg]

Everything is thinner than my Backlash lol. Wonder what type and size of washer are being used? From the close up shots, there is not much blade wiggle room compared to the PM3. Are the scales milled out? Like to get this one in my hands to take a closer look. Road trip!!!

[@BeezBlades]

Good catch hahaha. Teflon and bronze washers for the pivot and the handles are solid, with no milling. You keep me on my toes!

[@Thomas-dz4eg]

@@BeezBlades sorry

[@BeezBlades]

@@Thomas-dz4eg Heck no, I didn't even realize I skipped it. I'm glad you told me!

[@rustyknifelover4463]

The SnaggletoothMF is an excellent addition to the Code4.

[@BeezBlades]

That is so cool! I didn't know that existed. I gotta tel my brother!

[@rustyknifelover4463]

I donated mine to a fundraiser. I miss it.

[@BeezBlades]

You are the man as always brother. Do I just have short thumbs? lol

[@jacknemo8021]

They make pocket tanks and pocket swords. I don't think they make anything "light duty."

[@BeezBlades]

Truth. I'm thinking the SR1 or SR1 Lite may fit "my" hand better, and it looks like the thumb stud is closer for my short thumb.

[@jacknemo8021]

@@BeezBlades I have the SR1 and the ergonomics are great as I'm a very large guy. The detent is wicked strong however so be warned. But it is one beefy piece of S35vn. Got it as a gift from a very kind man. I don't like their clips, but that's replaceable.

[@paulbrown7798]

see I can't open it with the thumb stud- see how I open it with the thumb stud

[@BeezBlades]

Hahahaha. Right! Thinking out loud can be so difficult hahaha. Thank you Paul, I needed a laugh this morning.
