Description
CS29XT 5" Plain Edge Tanto Blade
Due to their light weight and convenience, Zytel handled lockbacks have gained enormous popularity at the expense of heavier, traditional lockbacks with their metal bolsters and wooden scale handles. This Voyager Series is the new generation of these ultra-light knives and are sure to be the standard by which others are judged for years to come!
The Voyager Series are made from the same premium stainless steel that goes into Cold Steel's famous Tanto. They feature precision milled and hand fitted parts with extra stiff springs. This provides a lock that is safer and stronger than most traditional folders. The blades are extremely wide and ground thin at the edge for tremendous shearing potential. This thin edge allows them to hone the blade to astounding sharpness. And because of the high carbon content in the stainless steel, you'll find that the sharpness really lasts.
If you like serrations, you"ll really appreciate their exclusive pattern. It offers the aggressive ripping action of serrated teeth, but with a twist.
The Cold Steel design features groups of very small teeth separated by wide, shallow arcs. This results in the benefits of both a plain and a serrated edge, so that the knife still cuts smoothly through almost any material. The Voyager Series offers all the advantages of the latest in lockback construction technology including lightning-quick, one-handed opening, light weight and strength, yet without the necessity for unsightly humps or holes in the blade. The result is a more appealing traditional look with very modern styling. Every detail has been designed for maximum performance from the reinforced pivot pin, and the metal clip, to the grooved thumb shelf on the back of the knife for extra traction. Plus, the handle offers a superbly comfortable non-slip grip and it houses the blade in a sleek, super-light package that can be carried all day without effort.
As tools, these lightweight, super sharp knives are appropriate in almost any environment from hunting and camping, to hiking and general utility chores. They can also readily fill specialty functions such as a boat or river knife, a chute knife or demanding police,/survival/rescue applications.

I am very pleased with this knife. It's a large blade yet I can conceal it enough to carry it at work. Blade material is excellent at holding it's sharpness.

Not as sharp as i would hope to have seen right out of the box but, like the title says... It's not a bad knife... the lock-up is right on the money. Every time she flys out of the pocket, it's sturdy as a rock. The blade steel holds a Very keen edge (with a little help from a leather strop). Tip strength is phenominal. Can't really see why anyone into knives wouldn't want to have one.

If you are looking for a Tactical Defensive blade, look no further. This knife is light and offers and huge 5 inch blade...I have been carrying for a couple of days...no problem is jeans...fits fine. My Philosophy of Use as Nutnfancy terms it from Youtube (great knife reviewer - check him out) is pure defensive with a little EDC everyday use thrown in - I buy blades with that in mind. If you live in an urban jungle like I do...this knife is nearly perfect. Its fast, easy to maintain, has excellent steel in the VG-1 version, and not many knives out there can provide a staggering 5 inch blade in just over 5 ounces. Many defensive carry blades are 3-4 inches...you get massive reach with this knife and that is stand off firepower....you can grip farther back on the handle and have fixed blade like performance for slashing and stanning moves. The knife feels great in hand, light and lightning quick. Need a bad boy folder ? This is it. I have a Vaquero Grande as well, that is nice too...but a little big and only serrated..and that knife has alot more play side to side and up and down...I dont like that. Voyager has no play as of yet...but in time that could happen...downside...this is a pinned design, cannot tighten or losen the pivot point. But, for the money...especially in VG-1 steel, this is a great buy.
