4-Max Scout Folding Knife with Tri-Ad Lock and G-10 Handle, One Size

This folder is a monster! It's large, incredibly solid and heavy. It is also an amazing value. I've used Cold Steel knives for several years (mostly those made in Japan), and was not too pleased when I saw that they are now made in Taiwan. Nonetheless, the Taiwan-produced CS products that I have seen are every bit as good, if not better, than those from Japan. The most important factor in shopping for a folding knife is its locking mechanism. The last thing you need is for a folding blade to close on your hand. With CS's Tri-Ad Lock, this is not an issue I worry about at all. The lockup seems to be as strong and tight as a bank vault. The 4" blade has a beautiful stone washed finish, and using 5mm thick steel makes it incredibly solid. The tip is both solid, well-supported, and will easily penetrate. The cutting edge is typical Cold Steel, razor sharp. The thumb studs are large enough to be easily accessible without being obtrusive. The blade opens with ease and feels as smooth as Tennessee whiskey. The blade locks into place with a loud snap, and when closed is perfectly centered. Supported by steel liner inserts for even more strength, the durable G10 handle is a thing of beauty. It is textured just enough to feel good and secure in the hand without being uncomfortable. The pocket clip is equally strong; the knife will stay where you put it. As mentioned, this knife is a real monster. It is big, too big to carry comfortably in a pocket in my view. A belt pouch of some sort would be the way to go. Every little detail of this knife seems to have received quality attention. If you need to skin a dinosaur, this would be the go-to knife. In addition to being a good knife for hunters, it will excel as any other job I can think of, making it astoundingly versatile. While the steel (AUS10A) is not my favorite, it's still a good steel and is pretty easy to sharpen. As solid as this piece is, I could easily see it eliminating the need for a fixed blade. I'm one of these guys who has been there and done that, and I can tell you that I am in awe of this knife. It takes a lot to impress me, and this knife certainly does. Dollar for dollar, ounce for ounce, the 4-Max Scout is truly an amazing bargain. For $60 some dollars, the price is almost beyond belief for the quality you get. Although my EDC is a Cold Steel Ultimate Hunter, this knife will be going into the gear bag that I keep in my car, and I have no doubt that it will do any job I need it to. If this sounds appealing to you, get one or two before people find out how awesome they are and the price goes up. Stay safe out there and God bless the USA!

I'm not a big knife guy however I wanted to have a nice all purpose knife. I have a couple simple lockblades that do the job however, they're sorta flimsy and not too terribly reliable. There are a ton of good knife manufacturers so it was a bit challenging to find one that was reputable, made great products and was well received by their customers. I poked around some forums and Cold Steel came up frequently. I didn't want to drop a mint on a super primo knife but I just wanted something sub $100 to have. I have med/large sized hands so I wanted a knife that was pretty stout and robust. I didn't want a little teeny knife but something that would work in just about any situation whether it was for EDC or whatever else. I checked out a lot of Cold Steel knives and this one caught my eye. I had also seen this particular model recommended on some knife forums for a good quality, go-to knife. After receiving this knife, I could see why it was recommended as it pretty much filled all my requirements for a blade. First off, this is a hefty knife. It has some weight to it which I liked. It's a little over 9 inches in total length so it's not a small knife nor is it some massive Bowie/Rambo knife. The blade on this is quite thick and seems really sturdy. There is no wiggle on the knife when fully extended. It's just a really solid, good feeling knife. The locking mechanism on this is also really beefy. The other knives I had, they would sometimes unlock themselves if I was putting too much pressure on them which, obviously, led me to finding a better quality knife. When closed, the knife is pretty wide as well; much more so than your typical knife I'd say. Overall, it's a big knife. I had originally wanted to use this for EDC, and you could, however I think it's dimensions and weight are a con in that regard. Despite this, I really liked the knife so much that I still kept it. I put this in my truck as an all-purpose knife which I think it's well suited for. it might be a bit too large for some people and depending on your specific needs, this one may be a bit overkill. However, I find it that it fits well in the hand, great brand reputation and seems very well built.

The item just delivered today through NAQEL, well packed and the boxing in brand-new condition, it's noteworthy to explain more about Cold Steel 4-Max Scout (once exposed it will show your statement, the strongest folding knife ever) Thanks Amazon for the best price given & Thanks Cold Steel for this amazing product

Lo siento un poco flojo a comparación del Cold Steel Spartan que tardé meses en que su seguro aflojara, pero no sé balancea el filo cuando se agita ni hace sonido, por lo demás bestia parda, es como un Buck 110 pero con esteroides y al sostenerlo sientes que puedes defenderte de un Bisonte o Elefante cargando en contra tuya. Excelente para llevar de EDC y tener una herramienta capaz.

Ein super Robustes und schweres Messer , genauso wie man es mag ! Ich denke mit dem Messer kann man alle Herausforderungen wie , Bushcraft , survival , Camping, Fishing , usw. Die Verarbeitung ist sehr gut, Klinge ist sehr scharf, der Folder funktioniert einwandfrei und ist leichtgängig , mit einer Hand zu öffnen ist Menschen mit kleinen und mittleren Händen schwieriger, das macht dem Spaß und der funktion keinen Abruch ! Es gibt zwar einen Clip für die Hosentasche aber ich persönlich würde es wegen den hohem Gewicht aber nicht ! Eine passende Messer Tasche für a den Gürtel wäre wünschenswert! Alles in allem eine klare Kaufempfehlung!

La hoja de acero AUS 10 tiene 4 pulgadas de largo y 5 milímetros de espesor que mantiene casi hasta la punta ( como las hojas tanto) , el mango es muy rugoso y el clip muy duro por lo que tendrás que doblar un poco el clip y lijar la cacha si no quieres romper todos tus pantalones, el seguro y la apertura es muy suave considerando el monstruo qué es ( tengo la Spartan y es súper dura en ambos puntos a comparación) en resumen si quieres una navaja indestructible y hermosa está es tu mejor opción.
