Review on Fixed knife Cold Steel Recon Tanto (CS49LRT) black by Wiktor ygado ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

The knife was put through its paces during a field trip that lasted for three days, during which it was used to cut food, butcher fish, fulfill domestic necessities, and cut down a small tree. Even after drying out the knife after usage, the untreated area of the blade showed signs of corrosion, which appeared as a slight darkening. There was thick fog every night from the evening till the morning, and the tent was not the driest spot in this scenario. You could use a knife made of stainless steel instead, but the cost would be around three times higher because the knife uses the sandwich principle, which involves two layers of steel.

Pros
  • Excellent value for money. Factory sharpening is of a sufficient quality. Fast delivery
Cons
  • The sk-5 steel that was used is susceptible to corrosion, often known as rusting.
