it's oddly calming to listen to him talk about knives

Lynn is an OG!!! He understands knives and like Al Capone understands what the market wants!!! He has produced wonderful designs at reasonable value!!! I currently live in Italy. In Europe a serrated tanto Voyager is currently running 134 Euros in 2022. Its still a great value! This and other voyagers along with other knife types will protect a household. God Bless Lynn for being an innovator and getting it done.

Forget the money, I can’t find a stronger folding knife in existence than the stuff you guys make.

Lynn really cares about his products and you can see in the quality of them and the way he takes pride in his company!

Bought one after watching this video. Always lobed CS YT videos. Bought a pro lite tanto to open packages at home and loved the blade shape. Bought a voyage bowie as a gift for my dad and another pro lite for my sister. Then after watching the philosophy behind this knife I took the plunge. The style of the blade doesn't take up room in your pocket when closed. The serrated edge cuts deep, processing card board for a bonfire really showed me the cutting power of this knife. The tanto point is incredibly strong and useful, its like having a chisel in your hand. Thank you Mr Thompson for producing knives like this!

My left ear found this interesting.

Just picked up the drop point XL....and I am in love. Gotta date with her in the woods coming up soon. Thanks Mr Thompson for making such an excellent knife.

Someone should do a documentary about the history of your company. From what I'm gathering is that you started in the 80s. I tried look for stock footage but I couldn't find anything. And I'd like to hear the tale of Cold Steel. 🗡 🗡

I absolutely love the knives Cold Steel provides for its customers. Their lock-up for folding knives has become the standard in what I expect from all of my knives. And every oversized folder they sell gives me the same joy that a child experiences when they recieve the toy they've been dreaming of.

This is my daily carry for a long time now. I've perfected the opening of the blade and get it into position in one move in a second flat. It takes practice, doing the same thing over and over again. It's Luke playing with a Balisong without even thinking about it. It becomes a Conditioned Reflex, doing it without giving it a second thought in case you need to. And ... I love that serated edge 😉

Got the saw edge, very impressive, I'm gonna double up with the plain edge. Cold Steel have never let me down with any of their products 👏

Just ordered one with the apocalypse coming and all

I truly wish they bring back the recon 1 tanto xl another hellva knife they should've kept in production. BRING IT BACK FOR AN ENCORE!..Love C.S knives.

What a great presentation from the Man himself. Made me order one straight away! Just waiting for this bad boy to arrive 😁

I love Lynn's vision for Cold Steel. The Cold Steel Tanto in many forms has been my EDC go to for over 20 years. Durable and combat proven ready.

Voyager XL was my edc for many years. Exceptional knife even with old AUS-8A steel.

The Voyager series of knives are the most underrated blades produced. They are unbelievably capable for a folder, the ergos, the weight, the blade shapes, and of course the locks. Oh and Cold Steel (unlike other companies) keeps the prices so low for what you get its crazy. I would recommend everyone pick their favorite blade shape and get an XL Voyager.

The tanto voyager is one of my favorites. I own the combo Edge XL and have been using it for years, I get many compliments on how badass it is and people call it my pocket Katana. It is my absolute favorite to carry.

Other knife companies: Our rescue knife enables you to cut a trapped victim's seatbelt without hurting the victim! Lynn Thompson: I'll show you how to make V-shaped cuts to do exponential damage to make their flesh pop open

That's exactly why we love Cold Steel! 🤘

I have to add that it is the best tactical / work knife as well. I own all the voyagers and the large tanto and xl are my favorites. I carry the large as a work knife and I find it very handy. I use the tip as a scrapper / chisel and it is a work horse! Thanks for perfecting the tanto. I love mine

I have this Voyager XL Tanto Serrated Edge knife. It's one of my best: super sharp, strong and reliable. Thanks Cold Steel.

Just ordered my xl tanto plain edge aus10 model. Been eyeballing this thing since 2012. Very excited.

CS: Can we get some cool handle color variants (RED please) on the Voyager series someday? Love my 5.5in Voyager, it’s done it’s duty well for many years! Serrated tanto looks incredible btw 👍🏻

The Voyager series is probably your best all around knives bar none.

A real "must have"! Ordered one and it's actually on it's way!!! Thank you Mr. Thompson!!!

I've been carrying a voyager tanto for almost 20 years now (the same knife because it's quality). Looks like I need a couple more, I really like the handle design on the new model.

Easily one of my favorite knives of all time.

They’re so badass and affordable, I wonder how many lives cold steel has saved.

I never leave the house without mine, a trusty companion, thank you cold steel! I love the voyager series

Just waiting for the Royal mail to deliver my knife today,serrated xl tanto voyager and i cant wait! I love cold steel knives and i will be adding more soon.

I love seeing you guys doing more KZfaq videos. Keep them up.

私はロウレスボイジャーを買った者です、薪割りから蔦を切る事まで幅広く使えました素晴らしいナイフをありがとうございます

Best pocket knife I’ve ever own, by far. Love your work

i iove a nice tanto,and they dont get nicer then a Cold Steel one. Not many Norwegians use them,but i love them.It's been 30 years since i discoverd the usefulness of a tanto pointed knife.

Love the AUS10A

I have the Voyager XL Tanto and XL Drop Point. I also have their 4 inch little brothers as well. I EDC the 4 inch versions, while their big brothers stay at home. Awesome folding knives all the way around!!

I dont always look to cold steel when I'm buying a new edc knife, but if I need an actual weapon or a knife I know I'll use alot everyday I'll take a cold steel gladly. This is one company I am glad exists.

Make a Spearpoint voyager for the ultimate EDC abuse tool - practical, cheap, strong, quality

I freaking love this knife.

I have a combo edge version. It's amazing and always with me when I'm in rough areas..

Really awesome more knifes review video!!!

2 years I've been abusing the daily hell out of a plain edge version doing factory maintenance work. All the things you shouldn't do to a knife I do to mine. Shearing through sheet metal, prying, light chiseling, chemical exposure, gasket scraping, etc. It's still in excellent shape, although i do keep a less aggressive edge on it than OE. I stand by the idea that this is the very best all around folder ever designed. Lynn Thompson like the much less prolific Frank Buck filled his career with a passion for the most possible performance out of reasonably carried size package, with every detail seen as critical and failure points unacceptable. Like Frank Buck's 440c Buck 122/124, the 5.5 voyager tanto is that art perfected.

My all time favorite . Love my tanto

Fantastic mr.tompson!!!!

This knife is a beast, if I had only one folding knife I could own it would be this knife with either edge. I have the AUS 10 version.

very great video i have the voyager xl serrated blade verqero a very reliable and deadly weapon at any time

Good, tough knife available at a decent price. The serrations have never been a problem for me regarding sharpening. I do my own sharpening and I find the serrations not being difficult to sharpen at all. Just use the proper tools and logic. Respect Mr. Thompson.

Man that cold steel hats cool

...bought one of these this past July at the tail end of the 2020 summer sale (the only time I could afford it)...I'm EXTREMELY Happy with it and just yesterday I ordered a three pack of wave openers from Snaggletooth Tactical...one will go on this one, the second on my 6 in Hold Out and the third on my wife's serrated 6 in Hold Out...

...just ordered one this past Friday - 31 July...hopefully it should ship today...

beautiful

The 5th grip😂 good one Linn

When I started watching this video I was like yeah but, I don’t know, when I got three quarters the way through I was like yeah but, NOW I HAVE TO HAVE ONE !!!

BTW Lynn will we ever see a limited edition clip point xl Voyager like the LT vaquero or the Rawles tanto???

I always carry my two xl Cold Steel tanto voyagers, a Cold Steel counter tac1 and when i can my eight inch tanto Kabar as a backup for whatever pieces I'm packing. I also always carry a Cold Steel finnwolf and a Sog trident for tasks that are easier to do with a smaller knife. I usually also have one or two of my other knives that I rotate with me. If I could only pick one it would have to be one of my voyagers. They can fit in a pocket for when I can't carry knives openly but they are large and strong enough to do most tasks. I think every knife has it's advantages but if you can only have one a large cold steel tanto can do pretty much anything you could need a knife to do.

I have this exact knife now and love it. My Dream is to get the Warcraft Tanto XL and Magnum Tanto XLL. I'd also like a Trailmaster or Recon Scout in 3V!!!!!!!!!

Makes me wana buy another one, with tanto though for sure cause lyn sold me on it

*I've got the Voyager XL Tanto and I was wanting the 50/50 blade but I couldn't find it on the site.*

Спасибо! Мне нравятся ваши ножи!

MY Kris Voyager is my all time favorite.

I may get an extra one of these simply to modify. I don't know why but I'm imagining changing the Tanto into a reverse Tanto (wharncliffe), keeping only the straight edge, then shortening the handle accordingly. I bet it would look nice, still be big, but just a tad easier to carry.

LYNN WHERE'S MY NEW SEAX BROTHER??? LOVE YOU AND YER PRODUCTS MAN! GOD BLESS YOU!

Not to mention coldsteel offers to sharpen your knife for you

Wish they put a glass breaker or something on end of handle. Would make this 100% for me. As is I feel its 99% for EDC defensive carry. I swapped out my benchmade bedlam for this (3 times the price) and stake my life to it other then I miss the glass breaker, next generation you should add that. Something like what's on the immortal.

my left ear enjoyed

how do we sharpen the smaller teeth big ones i can do but the smaller 4 are bit of a pain i dont want to get rid of them as you would with traditional sharpening.

Got my Cold Steel XL Voyager Tanto with serrated edge last month 👍🗡️🔪. Its a beast! Ive carried it at work but cant bring myself to use it lol the blade is too awesome to scratch up 😅.

Recon 1 , my edc since 2007

Just picked up the kris blade version of this. I fuck with it a lot.

Spartan. ..for years

Can we send the serrated knives into Cold Steel to get them re-sharpend?

The best tanto blade ever Most companies ruin the secondary point. also the hollow grind makes the blade cut well .

Any chance of there being a gununting style sword or big fixed blade knife anytime?

I WANT THIS MODEL!!!

y'all need one in s35vn

I see what you mean about "choking up" on the knife and getting more reach. You trained with Hank Reinhardt!?!? What a treat and an honor.

How do you sharpen your Serrated knifes

love this 80s vibe ninja/biker type blade shit that can walk the walk.

This is a line of knives from Cold Steel I wish hadn't updated from the AUS8 version. It WAS the best value in the knife market hands down, but once the steel changed and the prices jumped, they're harder to justify.

This serrated tanto or serrated vaquero? Do they have the same penetrating power?

Any chances of fixed blade versions of the spartan, rajah 2, and Voyager series? I think a fixed bladed spartan with an 9 inch blade would be a perfect hunting/survival knife

DBK should test these out

Benchmade Spyderco ZT can't do it better.

Please reintroduce talwar series in Aus10 A

Cold steel is the best knife company! They sell good products at a good price. Screw spyderco and benchmade

Mine comes today or tomorrow. I got it on Amazon Prime day for 60$,

I would love to work for them!

Take some of the curve out of the pommel and reinforce it with something making it viable for impact and maybe just a little more "Guard" length on the blade side so I have less worry about sawing my own fingers off if my grip momentarily fails.

Can we get a voyager in a seax blade that would be awesome

Serrated knife edge is very good at slicing and penetreating through muscle and flesh, but there is potential risk because the blade can stuck when serrations make contact with various types of clothes.

I miss the BD-1 steel.

KM4000 Style Nice,

Benchmade - shows pictures of cutting rope, cutting tomatoes, etc. Cold Steel - this knife will k*ll someone easily. I love it! Sold!

I really love the designs and the quality of cold steel. It is a shame that in Brazil any piece costs months of salary. But I am determined to buy an Espada XL (the largest of all) and a Grat Sword (zweihander) before I lose the ability to use a blade.

Not bad👌

Has anybody batoned with the serrated version of this or any other serrated Cold Steel knife?

Is that a pocket saw? 👀 I think it would work better than one and definitely way stronger no question.

Best bang for your buck as the great Matt Freeman said cmftwknives rip

Are those coyote fur?
