I've been looking for a Colonel Blades Folder for a couple months now and not only can I not find one for sale but their website seems to lead no where and all their social media has been shut down/deleted. Any one have any idea what happened to them or what the deal is?

You talking about the push knife maker? Or COLONIAL knives?

As far as I can tell, no folding knives are available from them. Just the pushknife. Best of luck to you

Perhaps an email or phone call to them is in order.

Thank you very much,Zieg.
I have tried to reach them with no success.
Blade Headquarters was selling them for a while.
 
Looks to me like they closed up shop. I'd go with a more established maker who's going to be around for a while, like K-Bar for example. They have some similar offerings, as do others.
 
Thank you Bobobama.
I just ordered a similar blade from K-bar as you suggested.
I appreciate your help.
Would still like to buy a Colonel.
If anyone hears of any new news please
let me know.Thank you.
 
I reached out to them via email in February and they said they are on a hiatus for "personal" reasons. IDK what the deal is.
 
Emailed BCM. Received the following reply (very quickly I might add):

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us.

Col Blade is doing an internal reconstruction. Blades will be back In productions later this year and available for purchase through the BCM website.

Please make sure to sign up for the notify me when back in stock option on the product page to be alerted as soon as they become available.

Thank you,

I don't think Depot 7 is on the approved vendor list and those knives look horrible.
