As much as Cold Steel loves the massive cutting and piercing power of big fixed blade knives there is no denying that wearing one in plain sight will often draw unwanted attention or comments. Conversely small fixed blades like the Kyoto knives seem to go unnoticed or if they do draw attention they almost always get a “pass” because of their small size and innocuous appearance. Available in traditional and reinforced point blade styles they offer astounding cutting and thrusting potential that belies their modest stature.
The robustly stout blades have wide full tangs that run the full length of the handle. They are coupled with stainless steel guards and super high traction Kray-Ex handles that are stylised to mimic the traditional look of cord wrapped Japanese sword handles. The slim comfortable sheath is versatile and will accept a bead chain lanyard or a Cold Steel C-Clip so it can be carried in a variety of ways.
