Cold Steels® Monolithic Ax and Tool® Series - Fixed Blade Knives



Lynn C. Thompson has developed a very special fascination with the simple functionality that forged knives display. Their single-piece construction made from a solid piece of steel sets new standards in terms of stability and durability, and as a passionate prepper/survivalist, hunter, and outdoorsman, Lynn can’t deny that the ruggedness of these rough and tumble knives has a special appeal to him. With no leather or wood handles to crack, rot, or break, and no loose parts to break, damage, or lose in the field, these incredibly strong and durable blades are easy to maintain and clean. Plus, they’re inexpensive enough to allow you to purchase a second piece for your game bag or emergency survival backpack.

The monolithic (= one-piece ) knives from cold steels® from the monolithic axe and tool® series are not cheap castings, but are made from 52100 carbon. drop-forged steel. For each model in the series, the solid steel body is expertly heat-treated from the tip of the sharp blade to the end of the powerful handle. For a comfortable and secure grip, each knife is ergonomically shaped and equipped with a deep recess in the handle section. Since these knives can be easily modified or customized, they are also perfect as "project knives". If desired, the handles can be retrofitted, filing and engraving work or other interesting modifications can be carried out for an individual design.



Forged Wasp

Developing a double-edged knife that meets Cold Steel® standards in terms of strength and durability is a real challenge. But the Drop Forged Wasp exceeded all expectations because there is nothing that can break, come loose or wear out. Thanks to the monolithic (one-piece) construction, the blade, hand guard and tang form an inseparable whole. The knife has only been supplemented by removable handle scales, which can be quickly and easily replaced if, against all odds, they ever break or show signs of wear. The perfectly balanced blade with a stable yet extremely sharp tip is shaped like a wasp waist (hence the name) and can therefore cut both when pushing and when withdrawing. The terrifyingly effective Cold Steel® Wasp, which comes complete with an excellent Secure-Ex® sheath, is nothing short of bombproof! And with proper care, it will last a lifetime.
