This review of the Demko AD 20.5 highlights its innovative Shark Lock mechanism, praised for its smoothness and fidget factor. The knife features a premium 20CV steel blade with a stonewashed finish and titanium scales, offering excellent sharpness and durability. Its ambidextrous design, including an included left-handed clip, makes it a versatile choice for all users, especially left-handed individuals. The Taiwanese manufacturing ensures affordability compared to US-made versions.
The Cold Steel Ultimate Hunter, a collaboration between Andrew Demko and Lynn Thompson, is reviewed as a robust 'Hardcore EDC' rather than just a hunting knife. Its design features milled G10 handles without steel liners, reducing weight while maintaining strength, and utilizes the highly secure Tri-Ad lock. The CTS XHP steel offers excellent performance for edge retention and durability.
The Cold Steel AK-47 series, particularly the redesigned Large and Mini models, offers significant improvements in weight reduction and lock strength. Featuring Andrew Demko's Tri-Ad lock and AUS8A steel, these knives are praised for durability and ease of maintenance. The Mini is ideal for EDC, while the Large serves as a tactical or collectible option.
The Cold Steel Spartan is a large, heavy-duty tactical folding knife praised for its secure grip and robust Tri-Ad lock. Despite a blade curve that can challenge sharpening and a measured weight exceeding catalog specs, its ergonomics and value at around $51 (2010 street price) make it a compelling option for defensive use and heavy EDC.
