DefenseReview.com (DR): An online tactical technology and military defense technology magazine with particular focus on the latest and greatest tactical firearms news (tactical gun news), tactical gear news and tactical shooting news.
Cold Steel Knives has just come out with a brand new tactical folder for 2001 called the Recon 1. We have to say, it looks pretty good.
The Recon 1 appears to be Cold Steel’s most modern tactical folder yet. The new knife represents a real departure, both in terms of blade and handle design, and the way it locks up.
The knife comes with a black teflon-coated AUS-8A blade and Zytel handle, with a pocket clip. What’s particularly interesting is the locking mechanism. Cold Steel calls it the "Ultra Lock", and it is supposed to represent a giant step forward in lock strength for the company. The Recon 1 is available in five different models, representing both tanto and bowie-shaped blades.
