Cold Steel Recon Scout CPM-3V Fixed Blade 37RS

The Cold Steel Recon Scout is a classic outdoor field knife that bares a passing resemblance to its larger cousin the Trail Master. Maintaining a clip point hunting blade, coffin shaped handle and brass dual guard the Recon Scout has been scaled down for ease of carry and maneuverability in the hand. Despite the smaller size this knife is plenty robust for most camping and hunting tasks. This version comes with an ultra tough CPM-3V high carbon alloy steel blade and Kray-Ex rubber for the handle.

Brand new, direct from Cold Steel.

Blade: The Bowie-style clip point blade is made from 5/16-inch thick CPM-3V high carbon tool steel with a sweeping cutting edge and powerful clip point. Fully flat ground, this blade can pierce, slice, chop and slash through anything in your path while the 7.5 inch length makes it fast in the hand and easy to carry. Makes a great daily carry fixed blade if you live in Texas. The thick spine adds weight for light chopping and added durability. CPM-3V delivers an exceptionally tough blade capable of heavy use with good edge retention sacrificing corrosion resistance.

Handle: A hidden tang construction on the coffin shaped handle balances strength with comfort and is made from deeply checkered Kray-Ex for a non-slip, shock absorbing grip, optimal durability and resistance to the elements. The handle is comfortable in a variety of grips and balanced for traction and control in the hand. A large, brass double guard tops the handle and keeps fingers safe from the razor sharp edge.

Sheath: Carries via a molded polymer sheath with modular nylon belt loop.

CPM-3V: is a high carbon alloy steel that extremely tough and has enough chromium to have some corrosion resistance. However, care is required to prevent corrosion. The edge can be ground thin as it is tough enough to support a fine edge. 3V delivers the highest level of toughness while maintaining good edge retention.
