Cold Steel Tanto Spike Knife
The Cold Steel Tanto Spike is a compact fixed-blade knife designed for users who value minimal weight, high strength, and constant readiness for use. Thanks to its slim profile and well-thought-out design, this model is an excellent choice for everyday carry, tactical applications, outdoor activities, survival, and various field tasks. The knife can be conveniently worn around the neck, attached to gear, or mounted on equipment, ensuring it is always within easy reach.
Tanto Blade Made from German 4116 Steel
The knife features a 10.5 cm blade made from German 4116 Stainless Steel with cryogenic heat treatment. This process enhances hardness, wear resistance, and edge stability while maintaining good toughness and impact resistance.
The Tanto blade geometry provides exceptional tip strength and is ideal for piercing dense materials and performing precision tasks. Combined with its flat-ground blade, the knife delivers aggressive cutting performance and handles most everyday cutting tasks with ease.
The 3 mm blade thickness offers an optimal balance between structural strength and cutting efficiency.
Full-Tang Construction and Ergonomic Handle
The knife is built around a full-tang steel construction, ensuring excellent durability and mechanical strength even under intensive use.
The handle is fitted with Griv-Ex scales, a material that combines lightweight properties with resistance to mechanical stress and harsh environmental conditions. Its pronounced texture provides a secure grip even with wet or cold hands, or while wearing gloves.
Integrated thumb and index finger guards improve user safety by helping prevent the hand from slipping onto the cutting edge during heavy cutting or piercing tasks.
Compact Knife for Everyday Carry
Despite its overall length of 20.5 cm, the Cold Steel Tanto Spike weighs only 65 g, making it barely noticeable during daily carry. The knife comes with a proprietary Secure-Ex sheath that securely retains the blade, protects it from damage, and allows for quick deployment when needed.
Its compact dimensions, lightweight construction, and high durability make the Tanto Spike an excellent choice as a backup knife, EDC tool, or part of a tactical gear setup.
