This double edged "dagger" will give you chills as you listen to Lynn and Luke describe the why's, how's, and when the weapon was used.

[@bladeandcloak666]

Lynn's still got it. The Legend. The Man. The Knife Creator.

[@luanantony8434]

The knife himself

[@Setaishafree]

No myth?

[@buheyesocuhfusedbruh8872]

Been a huge fan of Cold Steel for about 20 years now. I have over 20 of their products and I have never been disappointed. I do not have a Taipan, but it is on the knife wish list. This video was great. Can't wait for more.

[@JackG79]

Yeah it's amazing the quality they put out using what some folks would call "budget" type materials. Passing that savings on to us, the consumers. A great product at a great price... these are like Canadian Maple syrup.... American Apple pie or German Krupp Steel. The right tool for the job!!! The most bang for the buck!! Cold steel is all go... and... still got show!! LoL 😆 🤣 😂 😹

[@sgtfatrod8901]

Try making even a slightly critical comment on their Instagram. They will happily spit on that 20 years by deleting your comment & then blocking you.

@@sgtfatrod8901 yeah but like why wouldn't they do that lol

[@sgtfatrod8901]

@@elihollingsworth6852 Why wouldn't they block a lifelong customer over mild criticism of a product they bought? Is that what you're seriously asking? Well "like" because it's incredibly unprofessional & treating customers with absolute contempt "lol".

@@sgtfatrod8901 nah it's unprofessional and not a good thing but like of course they'd make criticism disappear

[@Enes-wj5xq]

The Cold steel knife handle never fails me, always great.

[@bapro1715]

Aaahh yeah, this non pc words of Lynn are just like healing balm for my ears...

[@Ogrematic]

I love Cold Steel. Thank you guys so much. I never leave the house without one.

[@vonbullfrog6658]

I'm so glad Lynn is still doing videos!

[@johnmutton799]

It is a Japanese style of dagger, that was used for hundreds of years. This shape of blade was used by them throughout history. Their spears were the same shape! Got the 3v dlc version. What a blade. Flat ground, and like a double sided razor! Thinking of buying the new vg10 san mai 3 version, just for the collection. My uncle saw it and said he wished he had it in the wars. Wish they would make one with a micarta or g10 handle.

[@-RONNIE]

Thank you for sharing this with us & never stop giving us quality weapons keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@mikeboone4425]

I have all ways worried about Lynn's weight but now even more . Happy trails

[@stefanklaus1652]

I owned one and sold it, which I regret my entire Life, it’s great to see the legend back on screen ❤️

[@Setaishafree]

What the reason you sold it?

[@rodrigolaporte274]

AAAAAAAWESOME. DAMN now I want a Tai pan

[@geoffreyfletcher6976]

Nice bit of history and concepts use behind a weapon. Please do more of these.

[@tokingreens]

Always the coolest looking Cold Steel to me...Thanks!

[@nipps223]

Good video. I enjoyed both the functional talk from Lynn and the historic side of things. Videos look almost TV/Discovery channel standard. Cant wait to see more, possibly even more in depth.

[@cavtroopermunoz]

Excellent knife and great content Stick, keep up the good work.

[@Erebus.666.]

Im with Luke, I agree that the Tai Pan is one of the best fighting knives ever. At any price point.

[@GOxHAM]

That's an epic dagger. All of Cold Steel's dagger designs are excellent. I'm a fan of the counter tac II, and the Tai pan looks badass!!!

[@grantwiebe2099]

Lynn please take care of your health. just because you retired doesn't mean we want to watch you die. you have been bringing us badass videos for a long time and I want to keep seeing you in them till your an old man.

[@seratbushcraft6979]

Mine arrived today absolutely luv it. Ever thought of making a 5 inch version

[@18echo]

Mine have been superb for the last 18 + years , and I still have the original leather sheath .

[@Michaelofficial2214]

Where you buy leather sheath?

[@18echo]

@@Michaelofficial2214 original leather sheath , just treat it with mink oil paste every year it will last for decades .

[@siegfriedwashburn3484]

Nice to see it again!!!👍👍👍

[@billquillin1952]

Excellent Idea!

[@1911a1bob]

I've been wanting one for a long while, may have to finally give in.

[@SteelSaint749]

I would LOVE to see this on that Arkansas Toothpick... If it ever drops.

[@heithwatkins]

Love Cold Steel.

[@Tomikai-zc5kb]

Have owned this along with Blackbear, awesome fighters you will never regret owning either.

[@kylec166]

To bad I can't have one of these in my state double edge be illegal very nice knife like it.

[@SBG_Paranormal]

Gotta love lynn! He is so educated and lives his products!!

[@unimatrix82]

I have never been a big fan of fixed blades for EDC, but this knife looks sick ! Id take this with me on a hiking/camping trip for sure though.

[@rushgush]

very beautiful

[@AlexMig]

I’ve been waiting for a video on the competition throwing axe

[@MrBlessed70]

I would LOVE to see Cold Steel revamp their Recon 1 Folders(in all sizes) with less grippy G10 handles and a very deep,low profile pocket clip with the option of a wave opener...Please Cold Steel make this happen!!

[@KandKo]

Agree with the deep carry clip but the texturing on the g10 can be changed to any gripiness level you'd like with a flat surface, water, sand paper and about 5 minutes

[@mikeogden5256]

One of My favorite 🤩😻😎😃💕✨

[@mohammedcohen]

great series...let's see the OSS soon...

[@Vigilantea92]

I have a san mai tai pan and I love it, a bit pricey and far from perfect for the price but I love it.

[@glenmo1]

Taipan.. self defense knife expert Jerry Van Cooks favorite defense knife he keeps one by his nightstand I've read

[@john678ification]

I have one of the orginal all black Tai Pan's from ages ago. What scares me though is I was literally just on their website yesterday looking at them again and then this video is posted.

[@The4cp]

Can't go wrong with cold steel

[@mcss327]

NICE!!!

[@jock-of-ages73]

A light version like the Outdoorsman/Outdoorsman light would be cool.

[@chewher4171]

It looks bad ass!!

[@SHUNYIBEIJING]

very good

[@metalmansean6040]

one of these days i got to get me one

[@harveybeekerthegreysquirre8262]

Hope you guys bring back the All Black Tai pan or maybe a Sk5 version would be nice or AUS10

[@AlexMaksimov]

Super!!!!!

[@sluggerwest3414]

I was going to buy one but i got a second pattern fairbairn sykes knife instead... They peirce effortlessly. And if i remember correctly there's a technique where you dont thrust you pull the guy on the knife

[@sconniejohn]

Interview with Stan W. Scott. Ww2 British ss and all around badass.

[@elihollingsworth6852]

I got a tops lions toothpick and a taipan to replace my old Fairbairn Sykes. The lions toothpick is a bit better replacement for the FS but this tai pan is extremely lethal

[@HanSolo__]

No knife above the Kukri!

[@Lenky01]

Carry both

[@geek211]

Bring back the triple action!

[@TheGreyman61]

I've been buying Coldsteel knives since they came out in 80. I currently carry a Espada XL and a pro-lite clip point. My only complaint is i really dont like the plastic sheaths. I wish you had an option for either a ballistic nylon or leather sheaths.

[@tigercobra3000]

Make a XL version to match the Magnum Tanto

[@bradfarrahgerwing154]

Call it sting....would be a great hobbit sword at 12 to 14 inches

[@johnmutton799]

Should have a tougher handle, G10 OR MICARTA. IT IS A JAPANESE STYLE DAGGER. BEEN AROUND FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS. SAME SHAPE AS THEIR SPEARS. MARKETING AT IT'S BEST!

[@heavyd1357]

Two Pan's absolutely "ROCK!!!" I absolutely luv mine. :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)

[@markbirchette8740]

My favorite is my original Cold Steel Carbon V

REDRUM REDRUM REDRUM 🔪 😁😋😉 Keep them coming guys. And girl ofcourse.

[@georgecatalin138]

C.D TaiPan or another : if you see a blade , you run !! Choosing to fight is like wishing the rain without the mud !

[@ramonvelasquez8431]

Oof! That one is dangerous just looking at! 👍 I like more utility centered knives normally, but I have to admit this thing is absolutely brutal for self defense purposes.

[@steinarhagen1976]

The Cold Steel Taipan dagger is a beautiful knife, maybe Cold Steels most beautiful knife design. I was thinking about buying one, many years ago. However, handling it in the shop, it did not feel good in my hand. This is of course a pure fighting knife, and such a knife should feel like an extension of your hand, it should feel really god in your hand. Because of this I never bought this knife. Others may not have my problems whit this knife, but if you have the opportunity to go to a shop and handle the knife before you buy it, it can be a good idea, whit this knife, and for that matter, most other knives.

[@peterv1318]

To light in the blade. Price is too much. Not even made in Japan anymore.

[@elihollingsworth6852]

The handles on the tai pan and the magnum tanto xii are too short and thin. Also, I agree, the blade should be thicker.

[@mactep_ciiopta9401]

i will waiting mini TAI PAN. Mini will be best knife like a mini leatherneck

[@JosueGOrtega]

Apenas acabo de comprar el mio y subiré una reseña a mi canal en español

[@SolutionsNotPrayers]

All edged weapons I buy are Cold Steel, I probably have 40 various edged tools. I got everything, giant Shurikens, that 17" Tanto Giant folding tanto, assegai spear 🏆Lance spear 💖Katana 🏆Tai Pan, Blow gun, pole axe, 🏆Norse hawk that giant Viking battle axe the medium sized axe

[@arturravenbite1693]

Bring back the O1 series

[@ssgp2]

In the San Mai line up, which one should I pick? Tai Pan or Master Tanto?

[@emwu1988]

Tai Pan or Recon Tanto. I have the Master Tanto and it’s heavy AF, loses speed in the hand, still a great collector’s piece tho.

[@dondee500k]

We need leather sheaths back!

[@aitorr5292]

When are you going to replenish the European stock? I can't find any of your products here!!!

[@greenwhite8133]

I've got two of it 🙂 Double Tai Pan better than Single one 🙂

[@edi9892]

Is the chain mail butted or rivetted?

[@glenmo1]

Because double edge knives are a no no for Carry here in CT.. I have carried the cold steel Master tanto for years.. it's also my nightstand knife and when I used to take my little kids camping back in the 90s it was always next to me in the tent along with a pistol on my hip why didn't it comment comment

[@peterv1318]

You can’t carry a double edge in any state even Alaska.

[@donrichter3523]

Sure you can….around half of the states, it’s no problem.

[@glenmones713]

@@donrichter3523 that means at least half of the States you can't carry a double-edged... Including my state of Connecticut.. yes you can have one in your house but you cannot walk around in public carrying it or having it in your car.. why carry a double-edged and break the law and get a felony barring you from owning firearms.. when you can carry a single-edged knife that's just as effective
