New for 2019

[fielder]

Does anyone know of anything new from Cold Steel for 2019?

 

[hermit dave]

I hear rumors of a Trail Master in uncoated 1/4" thick CPM 3-V

 

[jlauffer]

Supposedly a new balisong

 

[AF]

Come on Cold Steel! What's in store for 2019? We need something to look forward to.

 

[hermit dave]

I also hear there's a slip joint Espada XL in the works....

 

[fielder]

I really hope the uncoated 3v Trailmaster rumour is true!

 

[insta9ves]

Saw some hint somewhere about demko scorpion lock

 

[AF]

I heard that every folder will have its blade lengthened by 3" and their new flagship product will be nunchucks.

 

[jstn]

I'd like to see a fancied up American Lawman ala the 4 MAX.

Maybe I'll finally get one with a tanto blade

I guess I figured they would be uncoated as the regular ad15's are, but you are right they they probably won't be.

 

[Marneaus]

I'd definitely be interested in a Luzon with some upgraded materials.

Now that it is official that the patent on the Axis Lock has expired, I would be surprised if they didn't bring out a new version of the Ultra Lock.

At least two other companies have done this now.

TBH Triad lock is a much better lock so there’s no reason to revisit the axis lock. Cold Steel released Triadlock Recon 1 to replace the older generation recon 1 with ultra lock. Because of the strength of Triad lock and the fact that it doesn’t need a liner, the new Recon 1 is both stronger and lighter than the older version.

When does the yearly catalog usually arrive - January ? ? ?

Remarkably more ergonomic, too.

The old Recon 1 may be sleeker, but in virtually every other category that counts, the Tri-Ad Recon 1 is a vastly superior knife.

Yeah it’s definitely much more secure in hand and the added finger guard helps too. However for personal taste I actually prefer the more neutral handle

 

[GCG199]

Yes, I agree with the handle ergonomics on the current versions being so much better than the originals.

I honestly have no idea if they will bring back the Ultra Lock or not—just an idea since other companies are doing it.
