Pretty much a crossover knife from pocket to fixed blade survival. I happen to like big folders and this knife does not disappoint. The wide blade options that cold steel offers are truly impressive from a durability standpoint. A lot of people do not like cold steel knives and they make their arguments but, Lynn Thompson and Andrew Demko have made more contributions to the knife community in recent history than virtually anyone else. The company offers a blade for any purpose that you need.

[@hithere4719]

Except for maybe another Swiss Army knife for nostalgia’s sake, I can’t even consider any folder without the tri-ad lock.

[@leloup-garou443]

Well said... Agree ☝️💯‼️

[@rietzhu]

That’s because most are sadly steel snobs and enjoy blowing their pay checks on over priced edc and folders. But tbh it’s personal preference and that’s fine.

[@jeffroy36]

I'd love to show a picture of it but I don't know how

[@CarlosRodriguez-kb9jc]

I carried average size knives for decades, benchmade, strider, at, Emerson, … I was never happy. Until I got my hands on a Cold Steel Voyager XL. Love at first sight. I have big hands and until I found this knife, everything was always wanting.

[@th3oth3rjak3]

The 4Max scout has been my EDC for the last month and I've grown really fond of the size. It really has that "WHOA THIS THING IS AWESOME" feel every time I pull it out to use it.

[@selfhelp69]

It can literally cut up a puny gas station knife.

[@acostamarcelo298]

It's simple, and it's not that large... normally you don't go around with a fixed blade in your waist, so, you have a pocket, capable and reliable knife that you can carry in every circumstance ( maybe not the date dinner)...

[@ulary]

TRUE

[@benningsniper9516]

It's pretty dumb

[@starlingblack814]

Massive tank of a blade; probably would fit well into a belt pocket of a backpack. I don't think it is dumb at all, but very cool. Thanks Aaron for another great review.

[@canadiantinman329]

I’ve had mine for 2 years now, and my edc in bush, it makes cutting game down easy. And chopping lighter then a hatchet and more usage for me. Weight isn’t an issue, use to have weight on hips from webbing or duty belt. Love it

[@jeffreyb8717]

Good review. Yes it is comically large and not really for the office or dress pants. My pocket clip was so tight as to be unusable out of the box, but it was an easy fix. I still prefer my large Voyager for a carry knife, but when you need to go big, this thing rocks.

[@calebhughes2355]

Love this knife, this is my EDC when at work, the size is helpful when trying to manipulate with one hand when wearing gloves, tough enough to hold up to the oilfield but affordable enough that if for some reason it gets broken. Handle and blade are easy to spray clean when it gets greasy. 10/10

[@emersonmsd]

Got mine last week. Had to rework the spring slightly to be able to easily unlock it. Works a treat now. Extremely happy with it.

[@notshared2543]

I wanted a big folder to go in the ATV storage compartment. Just ordered one from Midway for $50. Lol my inner kid got a hold of my credit card also ordered cold steel shovel, blowgun, and tote of Peak meals all on sale w free shipping.

[@TheDirtRider101]

I take this badboy when I head out sledding or quadding and lemme tell you making a quick bush fire for a meal is so easy it's not even funny with this beast. I bought mine lightly used for $45 and it has more than paid that back itself in it's capabilities even as an edc surprisingly due to the choil.

[@jackmehoff9595]

Cold Steel knives aren’t for everyone. But everyone at one point will wish they had one with them when needed. The 4max and 4max Scout are the pinnacle of that concept. Both have survived numerous torture tests on YT. Best folders money can buy.

[@Levkhat]

I have payed for it 63$ and there is no other knife even close to it about 150-200$ price range. Absolutely, love it. It is not that big. I have no issues carrying in my back pocket. So I recommend to everyone

[@kenmastersmaster]

Ad10 is way better for $90. Better handles, far better blade

[@Levkhat]

@@kenmastersmaster by that time when i made this comment, ad10 was about 150 I guess, and 4max scout 60+ I know that ad10 costs more for that steel and handle materials, but for that price range 4max scout is unbeatable

[@kenmastersmaster]

@@Levkhat it's funny when the ad10 went to $90 the 4max was around $80 so it's a no brainier to get the ad10. 4 max is kind of a dumb knife compared to ad10/ad15. It's good for $60 but I wouldn't pay $80-100 for it unless they use better scales or steel. But if you want a big knife just get a Voyager xl. Better for slicing and also $60 but lighter and 1.5 inches longer and even comes serrated which is useful for cutting and sawing

[@Levkhat]

@@kenmastersmaster I am not comparing scout to ad10/15. I own most of the cold steels and I am a big fan, there is no doubt that ad10 or ad15 are better than 4maxscout, but for a hard heavy use, they can't beat scout

[@kenmastersmaster]

@@Levkhat S35 steel destroys aus10 by huge margins in edge retention and corrosion resistance. There have been durability tests on KZbin where the aus10 loses its edge while s35 goes easily 3 times longer. The 4 max should have come with s35 and I don't mean the elite which is $300. The scout needs better steel and handles while staying around $100

[@Youtube-Censorship-Police]

you guys should watch joe x's stress test of the 4max scout, one of the rare occasions where he couldn't kill the knife😂 seriously: this is probably the tankiest and most reliable folder ever.

[@charliejacobs8263]

I batoned with my cold steel ak47 and my 4max scout. Both perform well. The 4max scout is just a perfect example of one knife for the rest of your life. Buy it.

[@LarsBreuning]

It's not everywhere you can conceal carry a fixed blade, and this is where the 4-Max comes into play. It's as close to a fixed blade as any folder comes. I carry an Italian 4-Max CPM-20CV in a belt holder, an SR1 in my pocket and a Spartan around my neck. :) Btw the lock-pin on the Scout is smaller than on the 20CV version.

[@s.k.a.r6973]

Own one of these myself, and I absolutely love it. For the size, I have felt that it carries amazingly well. A total workhorse. Couldn't recommend it more! One easier way to open it is to press on the lock and flick it open, as the thumbstuds can get rough if you are using it all day with no gloves. Great video!

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@Boot2Ass24]

I got one too, easy to carry not heavy at all, nice knowing you have a powerhouse blade in your pocket in case you break down, run into trouble, etc! I have no need to buy another knife unless it’s a custom show type, but I wanted something I could actually use everyday, something beefy, robust, unbreakable lock, just tough ASF! If your thinking of buying this, DO NOT HESITATE, make sure you get the 4MAX ELITE/ S35VN!!😎👍

[@adods9824]

​@@Boot2Ass24you're

[@gerardvanengelen9001]

Lots of value. And so nice for guys with very large hands like myself that it fits in standard grip without gloves. Quality and finish are top notch in this price range.

[@cockamamiebumfuzzle9331]

I’m pretty positive that this knife will out perform many fixed blade knives on the market (as far as durability goes). If you are doubting that, just watch the video on the channel JOE X. I’m extremely confident that I’ll never break this knife. If it does actually break while I’m using it then a train piggybacking on the space shuttle just fell on my head.

[@mauriaikio2837]

Greetings from Finland and an awesome GT video again. You’re absolutely right that you can use this great big folding knife in cold winter with thick gloves very easily. The 4max Scout is definitely my favorite when I don’t want to carry my fixed blades (e.g. BK2) in a winter forest having 1m of snow for several months.

[@ZefKomodo]

Love my Cold Steel 4 Max Scout... beast, tough and solid folding knife! 💙

[@rogermabry2816]

I have one of these . Its my go to for heavy task & my get back home knife that can handle anything . Since I work for a large company . It allows me to carry this knife without drawing notice while walking around . Great knife .

Great review - the 4 Max Scout is the over-built pocket knife that everyone secretly wants. I own 4.

[@brianf9619]

If your like Me and you love large and XL Blades from Cold Steel , this is an Awesome Knife and a Must Have ... Ive Buttoned some bigger 3" - 31/2" logs and branches with the Scout and my Voyager XL clip point with No Problems , it is a bit scary but they did it without any problems. And the AUS10 with CS's great heat treat is an Awesome Steel , really tough and holds a great edge especially through wood . And it's only $73.00 on Amazon right now And the AD10 , with S35VN steel , is only $110.00 on Amazon , so pick your poison...👍🖖

[@PLBW81]

wow. AD 10 in Europe is 200 Euros.

[@laserbrain7774]

chicago knife works $72 and they eat the tax. mini recon is nice too for $43.

[@DL-ij7tf]

People often mock these knives from the viewpoint of being an unreasonably large pocketknife, which it is, but it makes more sense to think of them as a fixed blade knife that folds. For a fixed blade knife they're a fairly modest size and they're made so well they'll stack up in durability and use with most any actual fixed blade. You don't have to carry a sheath and it only takes up half the size. It could fit it a lot of small pockets like horizontally on a backpacking waistbelt or in the administration pocket of any pack. This isn't to say everyone should get one but I do think there's a realistic niche where these big folders have advantages other than just being a comically large pocketknife.

[@DL-ij7tf]

@DTL I actually agree about the 4Max, I just don't think I'd use it or like it enough to tote it around even in a pack. I love the AD10 and some of CS's other knives including the Airlite but I wish they all had steel liners, a feature I think any hard use folder should include. The AD10 is aluminum so that's something.

[@ShakazuluJones]

Just got the 4maxscout and a kabar BK you reviewed and both are beasts and very useful. Thanks for the good work.

[@carlrobinson8177]

The 4Max Scout , absolutely without a doubt totally Awesome, YES !!! My neighbor got one before I did, we are always buying knives and brother I love me some cold Steel. Cold Steel makes knives for anytime any place, good weather, bad weather they have the knife for you. This 4Max Scout will be mine very soon. I own many Cold Steel knives, machetes walking sticks, never once have I been disappointed. The right tool for the right job. Nevertheless like everyone else, just my opinion. Great video thanks for sharing.

[@gearlist]

Great overview, always appreciate the field test 🤙

[@TimRHillard]

Thanks for the review, got one on the way!

[@Skyfall-sv8df]

Its an outstanding knife and it offers people a way to easily edc a "survival" knife. It's also best carried on the hip, closed, in a sheath (instead of pocket). There are several custom sheath makers available.

[@ZoneCrasher]

The 4 max is the only knife I own no matter how hard you try you just can't get any hint of blade play, side-to-side or vertical. That's one solid folding fixed knife.

[@stefanwilliams1687]

Thanks man for another great review, thanks so much for comparing it to the bk2 as i just brought one so it was very helpful.

[@StandardAmericanCarnivore]

I removed the thumb studs and sharpened the spine (the first inch behind the scales) and have EDC’d this knife for a little over a year. I love it! In fact, because it’s so tough and capable, I’ve taken it bushcrafting, hiking, done utility work… it’s awesome. It’s so ergonomic, and I actually am used to the size and weight. This is a must have as the knife to have on you if you’re in a survival situation.

[@jonnyboat2]

This has been my edc for the past two or three years. It's a quality knife and it works well.

[@4673962]

Awesome video, nice job. Awesome knife. It works excellent to good for about everything. I like to carry bigger folders. I find myself reaching for the bigger ones out of my collection a lot more than sub 3 1/2" blades. Great job Aaron, keep em coming!

[@chiefexecutive]

I love this knife !

[@michelt4390]

Yeah, probably kind of big in the pocket... but in a belt sheath, it ought to work just fine. - Been rocking a AD15 for the last year, in a sheath... Just like I used to carry a large Sebenza, and it works just fine

[@rsafree1139]

I have found that I have a tough time choosing between this and an Esee 4 S35VN for an edc that can do hard use tasks and squeeze into a survival role. They are similar in size and both weigh 10 ounces (with sheath on esee). Each have their advantages and disadvantages. Esee has better steel, a lifetime warranty, and obviously can’t break the lock. 4 max is half the price, so even if you somehow managed to break it you can buy a second and still be less than the esee. So warranty isn’t a big deal here. I highly doubt you will break the lock. 4 max is actually more ergonomic even though it’s a folder, due to the large handle. And the 4 max is a better chopper because it carries its full weight on the knife, whereas the esee leaves 2 ounces on the sheath. Plus the longer handle lets you get a better wrist flick. The esee batons slightly better because there’s no thumb stud in the way. Overall I like them both for this role and have a hard time choosing, but right now I’m leaning towards the 4 max.

[@WeTheArmed]

I’ve had one for quite a while now. It is my edc. It’s an awesome blade!

[@GreenBadgerOutdoors]

I have the DLT Trading exclusive one. While it's less then ideal for striking a fero rod, it's possible to do so either just behind the thumb studs or in front of the swedge where the drop point is.

[@jared8530]

Just got a Scout and I've never felt any folding knife as robust and quality as this knife.

[@pnwfunstuff2218]

I have the sr1 lite and it's very similar to the scout. Great for bushcraft and camping!

[@asteiner9181]

This folder is a fringing beast, I baton the shit outta mine and it still folds up like it was new. It is stronger than most fixed blades. AUS 10 steel overall is well balanced and easy to sharpen. It’s a steal at $70… no other knife at that price point comes even close.

[@Gman1024]

Love the largeness. The Cold Steel 4-Max Scout is on sale on amazon right now for 61.72, awesome deal.

[@edstar1972]

[@latestplague3762]

Have carried a zt300 for about 10 yrs but not my edc knife cause I only carry it for situations/places where I think there's a potential to have to use it for slicing through ligaments and tendons hahaha. I don't use that knife for anything else but there have been occasions where someone asked me for a knife and I whip it out and their expressions are priceless because of its size and design. I found after a few carries that knife is so comfortable and perfect for me, I've almost spent the $ buying another 1 as a edc for every task. When I saw this knife awhile back I loved it's design aswell and it's size reminded me of my zt. I haven't bought one yet but I think this might be the next one on my list.

[@Wideranger]

I was carrying my Recon1 but just swapped it out for my 4Max Scout after watching this! Love this blade. Edc for about 12 weeks and only changed it when I got an AD10. The handle ergonomics are just so good on the 4Max Scout especially for someone with large size hands!

[@theheretic3764]

4max or ad10? I’m on the fence. Which is best for survivalism?

[@Wideranger]

@@theheretic3764 I was having the same dilemma. Had to order online without being able to see or handle them. The blade shape is very similar but it's all in the handle. It changes the dynamic completely. The 4Max is much better for any chopping and the bigger blade is great for a multitude of tasks. The AD10 is more refined, and will perform the same tasks but the handle position will fatigue your arm more if you chop with it. I bought the 4 Max first but still wanted the AD10. If I had bought the AD10 I'm not sure I would have gone for the 4 Max Scout. I use my 4Max Scout in the woods because it's just bad ass crazy and puts a smile on my face everytime I use it. The AD10 for home when I want a strong folder on me. Try and get your hands on one as you will understand the handle dynamic instantly. They look similar on line but have very different personalities. I think the AD10 is probably the more useful but that's just my opinion!

[@theheretic3764]

[@chadcolton528]

Great video! 2 use case scenarios that you touched on but warrant a little bit of expansion: 1. CA where Cold Steel is located (Ventura) allows you to carry any sized folding knife concealed (as long as it’s not a Bali, switchblade, or double edged) which is why Lynn has been into oversized folders for so many decades. If you want a ten inch survival knife but it has to be a folder, then this is it. 2. If you’re just a big oversized dude, this knife might feel normal to you.

[@The4cp]

I really like my 4max, and the AUS10 is waaay better than I thought it’d be, it takes a really keen convex edge, holds it pretty well, and it strops back to keen quick-n-easy. I never “edc” it, thats kinda silly for 99.9% of my life, but every time I travel or trail it certainly rides in my all-purpose Vanquest FTIM pouch with all the essentials… it kick out my SR1 (g10/s35vn) because the 4max is more comfortable and it slices better. The AD10 is a great option for a pack strap or chest bag. But.. I dont like the big gap between the scale and thumb stud, its kinda awkward. The handle could be a bit thicker through the index finger area.

[@eyeofthetiger4184]

G'day Aaron, yep love the beefy fellas, particularly from CS. Only problem is if I had one of these many of my other folders and indeed smaller fixys become somewhat obsolete; its already a bit that way with the Recon 1 and Gator premo. Cheers Duke.

Voyager XL Tanto is a rad knife.

[@larpology5282]

I think this and a fishers x7 or a folding saw would pair really well rather than carrying another dedicated fixed blade, throw something like this in your kit for the smaller work and use the axe/saw for the heavyweight, but the knife is still capable of fixed blade work but packs down smaller
