I have the older model with the serrated edge. This knife is an amazing folder. Great for self defense in either plain edge or serrated. It will cut and pierce anything it comes in contact with. Super sturdy construction and lock up. Excellent Cold Steel quality. It will definitely save your life if called soon to do so.

I’m an Entry level Knife Nerd . I don’t have much that needs cutting, but, I like sharpening. Sort of fun in a freaky way. So, I need knives. Maybe someday I’ll find something to cut other than paper. Well, you don’t want to hear about my knife life.
Anyhow, this looked like fun. Plus, S35VN at this price and size, what’s not to like.
This knife is silly sharp. So, I hacked at a 2×4 to see what is could do. Looked like a small version of those lumberjack contests. Left a friend do his own piece of lumber. Crazy knife.
Still sliced through paper like a freshly sharpened blade.

Was glad Cold Steel brought this back. G10 texture is more subdued than older models and pocket clip long enough (less tension) for me not to have to sand down that section to avoid pocket destruction, which is a plus. Fits all the way into my front jeans pocket. Came very sharp. Works very well with an aftermarket SnaggletoothAL opener. The only downside to it is that the Triad lock is one of the stiffest I have ever had, and makes closing it a displeasure, even after lots of opening/closing for the sole purpose of smoothening the lock and plenty of oiling. It is very difficult to close this with one hand. I suppose that’s the tradeoff for the security of my fingers though. Overall very pleased with it anyway.
