New Cold Steel Knives at SHOT Show 2022 - KnifeCenter.com

[@natek1993]

I will always have a never ending love for Cold Steel.

[@iceman5117]

We need more videos about how you can use all of these as 100lb pry bars and climbing rungs

[@matthewadler1329]

I feel you Nate. Cold Steel is a truly indispensable brand. My heart broke the day Lynn posted the video informing everyone that he had sold. Some folks like to talk smack about him, but I am eternally grateful to the man for creating such an amazing brand with so many knives that bring me joy. I pray that he stays involved, if only behind the scenes, and that Cold Steel stays consistent and continues to do it right, because I couldn't live without CS knives.

[@istandwithIsrael]

Same bro. I am from Israel.

[@rbs1889]

Great deep carry clips on these new models! Better clips than before.

[@EvilNick81]

Their marketing are ridiculous but nobody else make more solid knives at that price , I'm amazed everytime I'm buying a new cold steel !

can we please give a special thanks to DCA!!! The only person that sat down,talked and went over the new cold steel knives. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@barrybaldwin5535]

That lineup instills continued confidence in the CS products, even under the new management. I'll try a couple of the new models myself, even though I own about 2/3 of the Cold Steel & Special Projects products already!!!

[@willd6515]

Same here.

[@henryvandeventer2457]

Yup, that's definitely going in my collection along with the AD10 Lite.

[@ИгорьИванов-ь8ъ]

My favorite knife brand is Cold Steel!!! Excellent quality for your money. It's nice to watch your videos! Keep it up guys :)

[@gadgetstalker2]

The first half of the selection seemed a little tame for CS and then the Mayhem was shown. I fell in love!

[@backoffu]

Yes, the Mayhem looks great!

[@GOxHAM]

I'm digging the more budget friendly versions of tried and true models. I wasn't able to afford the 3V version, but these 4116 versions will be great !!

[@littlemouse7066]

the problem is that it's basically like having a cheap kitchen knife which is not so cheap. they should at list give us some good tempered 14c28n or 12c27 for the price.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

@@littlemouse7066 I'm ok with the 4116, where I fall off is with the 4034, it's shit and cold steel's magic can't even make it good!!!

[@littlemouse7066]

@@Wildwestwrangler maybe the 4116 versions could be enough but they are too pricey for what they are especially in Europe.

[@maxwhite8470]

Cold steel are very over priced for their budget knives they need to improve the steel d2 or vg10 is dirt cheap now

[@littlemouse7066]

@@maxwhite8470 true.

[@etherealicer]

Love the new lock, especially since nothing is sticking out of the spine. That is personal preference, but I prefer a flat-continous spine.

[@sauce1302]

So much relief after seeing that they care and will continue the great legacy of Lynn Thompson!

[@oscaralvarado6457]

I recently buy a Cold Steel canadian Knife and, I tell you, its a wonderful tool. Send you a blessing.

[@deionbeeldenstormer7498]

Totally dig Stick Man"s sense of humor. Very refreshing, and hilarious. He puts the cool in tacticool! P.S. I'm sure many would agree: Would love to see most of their folders get a DEEP CARRY pocket clip. Kind of like FOUR SEVENS (and now Prometheus) flashlights have done with their Quark light: the product comes with a regular pocket clip (with 1/2"-1" of the item rising above the pocket ridge) for easy access -- but for additional cost ($5-7) you can get a deep carry clip (where the knife pommel is completely flush with pocket ridge).

[@deionbeeldenstormer7498]

P.S. Want -- no, NEED -- a full-size LAREDO FOLDER with a full size 10.5" blade. Makes the Espada XL look like a box-cutter. (Pre-orders come with a FREE PIG for at home testing. And subsequent BBQ.)

[@CKshouta]

@@deionbeeldenstormer7498 what do you mean, Espada XL is a great box cutter.

[@artdecaro5937]

I love me some Cold Steel, and I definitely enjoyed David's, "Nice subtle pshew pshew," around 15:35 😂

[@bbaker3510]

❤️Cold Steel! Glad to see you guys are continuing the tradition of putting out awesome stuff!

[@maxlvledc]

The rep for cold steel...not the most knife savy...but he is 100% perfect to describe the feeling of the cold steel

[@eric_in_florida]

I'd rather see someone more knowledgeable of their knives than just a guy who looks like a total badass.

[@maxlvledc]

@@eric_in_florida agreed, but a crazy fanatic who talks like a guy ready to go into hand to hand combat with a wild Boar is 2nd best lol. At least for cold steel

[@arizonapancake349]

I was still concerned about Cold Steel's direction after they were bought and a few of the new online offers looked pretty chincy, however. This video has shown their intention to keep up with and continue producing the big bad working and combat style folders and fixed blades that has made Cold Steel one of the best knife manufacturers in the world. I hope they keep it up as I will continue to grow my sizeable Cold Steel collection. Definately grabbing a warcraft Tanto 12 and the AD 10 Lite

[@arizonapancake349]

I would like more 4 inch and above folders, stonewash finishes, and Aus-10 on all these blades as that is some beautiful and functional Cold Steel classic materials and styling

[@gaslampnation735]

$500+ isn’t quite the change I was looking for...

[@budthecyborg4575]

8:35 Side note on the Mayhem, I much prefer the Thumb Plate opener, even on large knives. Thumbstuds are "logical" in having the best leverage on blade opening but even on the biggest blades being able to pocket snag the blade to open is a really neat ability. Technically you can have both Studs and the Thumb Plate and then people have the best of everything (and I can always unscrew the studs).

[@EvanWtheknight]

Thumb plate works better than most people seem to think. I back pocket carry a Spartan and it deploys every time. Wish they offered it on recon 1s, to tell ya the truth.

[@darque1860]

Agreed 👍

[@Lunarpreparedness]

Ugh… I better start saving now. There’s a lot of “I gotta have it”s on that table right there. Awesome!

[@theochrist9453]

I remember coming across Cold Steel in the late 80"s and since then they went a long way, this new lineup is very tempting.I am just wondering, when will these be available in Europe ?

[@thebrassforest4898]

This is the most exciting knife lineup that I have seen in a while! I was hoping they would make a more affordable AD 10. That new lock looks promising, and that prototype! wow!

[@blueeyeswhitedragon9839]

I was wondering how Cold Steel was going to proceed with the changes, and now l know...quality and a number of interesting new ideas. I guess l'm saving my money for a new Cold Steel for my pocket.

[@mcr0741]

Gotta admit, didn't really like DCA that much at first, I mean, not that I disliked him either, but, he has surely and ever increasingly earned my appreciation as a knife presenter. He speaks confidently, clearly and accurately, with energy. He seems to always enjoy presenting and you can see that energy whenever he's on, and he does all that while being professional and composed. Even in this video, he has more info on the new knives and is presenting them better than the official CS representative. Dear DCA, you rock man!

[@poncho151]

I always love seeing new stuff from CS and there’s some intriguing designs there! Also I have to say that Beam has really started to grow on me, he not as serious or intense as Lynn but still has that great dark sense of humor.

[@AnonAnon-qi4ts]

I talked some trash about GSM, but I'm here to tell you they eventually just sent me a 4-Max Elite to replace the 4-Max that was lost during the buyout. It took awhile, but they made it right. The Atlas Lock looks incredibly sick and they aint scared to use it on a big boy. Nice. I will have one.

[@k.nightravenm298]

I WANT THE COLD STEEL MAYHEM!!!!!

[@jonhaze7537]

[@iankondek699]

Hit after hit, they know their market not all are edc practical but I love Cold Steel

[@TheScottyp1]

Cold steel there is some good stuff here but i think i can speak for 95 oercent of the knife community in saying we will NEVER buy a 4034 blade. Awsome fixed blades but the steels are wrong. why not aus 10....i jist dont get it

[@arizonapancake349]

Aus 10 would be better for that, great steel with Cold Steel's heat treat, along with a Stonewash finish

[@jaystavros7177]

4116 stainless is really a disappointing choice. Gone are the days of CTS BD1 being the budget choice for CS. At least give us AUS10A for the low end models. 😔

[@darque1860]

San mai is awsome, but the steels they use is odd. I want to see a big warcraft With San mai 3, d2 outer layers, and Cpm3v on the cutting edge. Or lion steel. That would be cool.

[@TheScottyp1]

@@darque1860 those arent my picks but you have the right idea

[@yeetyeet8365]

Lynn sold at the right time. They are way too much money now and I thinks sales will suffer because of steels and price.

[@Vladpryde]

I'm very glad I clicked on this video. I lost a lot of hope when Lynn sold the company to some nobody conglomerate because of the potential drop-off in quality. But it looks as if they are slightly reimagining some of these designs, and I like it. The Warcraft tantos, for instance, were long over-due for a handle change.

[@scdub]

I’ve always heard great things about the original Warcraft handle. What didn’t you like about it?

[@Vladpryde]

@@scdub I guess it's a matter of preference......I like the exposed tang with the grip panels better.

[@KaiMastaK]

His sense of humor is very appropriate for a Cold Steel rep. Approved!

[@BossinDawson253]

I hope to see a the demko thumb plate on The Mayhem! Excited for that one

[@dmg4415]

The last trio should be offered as a dual combo, the little one in a piggyback on the sheat of the bigger one, then always send them with a detachable fire steel, and a notch on the back for the fire steel, at least for the outdoor oriented knives, could be a part of the jimping.

[@orendz7740]

And I was worried when cold steel got sold. Not sure what the hell I was so worried about looks like cold steel is in good hands. Can’t wait to get some of these

[@ИванЛесуков]

Ad10 lite is cool but everything else is just regular 10-20 bucks noname brand chinese knives. Sad to see what is happening to cold steel...

[@silentstryker1590]

Love CS!! Best brand in the world for price and performance in my eyes.

[@SteelSaint749]

I need that Mayhem with a thumb plate and maybe exclusive handle colors and black DLC.

[@jslaughterofthesoul4939]

I would love to see an XL Black Talon 2 in DLC, please! Serrated Spartan, and Kris Ti-Lite really made me happy to see Cold Steel sticking to the formula. The new lock is very intriguing, and the Mayhem... Hell YES.

[@DouglasRosser]

Excited about the Atlas lock. I've always wanted a Demko shark lock, but what's available outside the customs isn't that appealing.

[@ilyas859]

Imo it's going to be more comfortable since there is nothing sticking up from the back of the spine

[@eachday9538]

Mayhem and that new lock are exciting. And great move with the Warcraft those old handles were not awesome. A suggestion for a further mod would be to increase the size of the scale fasteners (if not already done so) and perhaps give them a third scale fastener so if one fails you always have two in place to maintain function. Then it would feel truely bomb proof.

[@ramonvelasquez8431]

That that drifter is right up my alley!

[@andregalustyan7777]

And the legacy will persist. Good Job Cold Steel!

[@TheWildGonzo]

I've been looking forward to seeing the new Cold Steels and they are as badass as expected. DCA is great as always! Gonna be adding a couple more Cold Steels especially the Mayhemto my collection this year.

[@MrBlessed70]

Would have loved to see some models in larger size options(example,Drifter model in 4 inch or 5 inch).Glad the pocket clips have improved.

[@arizonapancake349]

I agree, I don't carry anything under 4 inch.

[@scatj20]

Friggin love the Stickman!

[@Bladeshed]

You gotta love cold Steel.

[@matthewadler1329]

I really like this guy a lot. Welcome to the knife world Stick Man! I would love to see Josh- Jimislash representing Cold Steel as well, but this guy did a great job. I really enjoyed the way he expressed his impression of the Razortech. Its a bad knife, even with the lower end steel. hopefully it will be priced the way Cold Steel has priced budget fixed blades in the past. I like the smallest one a lot. Can't wait for the Verdict in G10/AUS10, and the Drifter in S35VN (my favorite steel), and of course I am excited for the Mayhem. Its a really sweet addition to the over the top monster category that Cold Steel owns.

[@toastedjoke]

I was worried when the initial lineup was released, not gonna lie. It seemed like CS was getting watered down by their new management. But, then I saw them up close and THEN he flicked out that Mayhem knife and well…my worries are dying down lol. Glad to see some classic CS flair in the new design. As a long time CS customer I am definitely excited for the possibilities with this new lock system AND that Mayhem knife. I will definitely be picking one up.

[@MannixKnives]

Oh dude I can't wait for that Mayhem!!! It looks like a throwback to CS's older, bigger stuff they did over the last two decades but it's got that new lock on it!

[@S.R.Backwoods1]

Very cool lineup. I plan on getting at least a few of them. I’d like to have a couple of each one! Cold Steel has been a winner for a long time and it looks like they are still winning!

[@kerpal321]

can you guys bring back some of the pre-demko cold steels like the original talwar, scimitar, ultra lock ak47 and recon, desperado etc....

[@JoelHunterGun]

5:40 This looks like what is now the Engage 3.5". I couldn't find another vid that was showing it well. Thanks!

[@patrickomalley5055]

Excited to see the 4034 Laredo in this video, as I'd placed a pre-order several days ago. Cannot wait for that critter to arrive at my door. Cold Steel sets the standard for elegant, stout knives that look totally wicked. Solid.

[@borgir8388]

Damn the 7" Razor Tech is a BEAST!

[@lynnjr457]

Deer cold steel, I love my CS AD10 and will be buying the tanto version. But it would be nice if you would provide a deep carry pocket clip option for the series versus the clip it comes with. That clip is the only complaint anyone I know has with the knife and it has kept a few folks from buying one. I had to spend money to buy an aftermarket clip off Etsy so I could stop tearing up my jean pockets. The deep carry clip you released on the new Drifter would be perfect!

[@ghozt9119]

Deep pocket clip from Coldsteel 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@whoc4r3s117]

Like the black polo. Very professional. Keep it up DCA.

[@tolkienboutstuff446]

That mayhem looks like something psychos would throw in Borderlands 2😂👌🏼

[@JohnDoe-sw4kg]

[@tntshuffle-9799]

I need that prototype Mayhem knife now! Give Me that Thing! Its the most badass folder Ive ever seen and I have quite a few knives in my collection!

[@carlstanland5333]

So is the Drifter a Demko Shark Lock or a very close copy?

[@Martin.Krischik]

Looks very similar indeed.

[@zenmonkey0702]

That AD10 Tanto though 😍😍😍

[@matthewadler1329]

The Mayhem looks like a lot of fun. It's It's first monster folder to give me that "gotta have it" feeling in a while. Hope we see it hit shelves soon.

[@Cid_1]

Cold Steel will always have a knife for the most hypothetical situations people never will be in.

[@frogger832]

I bought so many cold steels. Heres what i like: the new Mayhem and the new Warcraft tantos as well as the new fixed blades in the end. Theres always a market for large high quality combat knives and folders. The market for “edc” is way too saturated. From Spydercos to Benchmades to $40 D2 Framelock Civivi’s, competition is way too tough in this sector. But as a consumer, while these options are practical, it isn’t exciting for me. I just got a large size counterpoint and opening the blade along with the durability of the triad lock is super impressive. Getting the magnum tanto XL is insane. Knives need to be exciting. This is where Cold Steel has the advantage due to their reputation and Triad lock patent. Im glad the new management of CS realizes this.

[@ibelieveicansoar]

I agree. CS should continue being the leader in large, adrenaline-inducing blades, with smaller EDC models serving more as gateway drugs. Hopefully they aren’t planning to reverse that strategy to make it onto more racks at big box stores.

[@dakotafigueroa66]

Idk if I’m sold on this new cold steel stuff. I really need to see the atlas lock tested. Not a big fan of these new angular features on the handles. I’m seeing it veer farther and farther from classic cold steel and I’m getting worried they might be changing cold steel for the worst but we’ll see it’s still early on

[@ting280]

Lmao if Stan Lee was a nerd about violence instead of comics

[@SgtKong]

Didn't know what to expect from Cold Steel. Presently surprised

[@thefullyawakened3021]

Cold steel is synonymous with bold, bad ass knife craftsmanship. Along with battle axes, swords, and canes, and everything in between … 😂

[@michaelmechex]

I have to say I was a bit worried about Cold Steel under new management, but this relieved a lot of my concerns. New models seem to retain high quality, durability and design language that Cold Steel is known for, well done!

You should be able to contact GSM outdoors and get another one. I'm left-handed, so I might have one or two right-handed recon clips lying around if you want. I definitely have a right-handed clip for the Code 4, which is the same as the recon clip, its just polished steel instead of black colored.
