Videos tagged with Cold Steel Scimitar Spike

This video reviews the Cold Steel Spike knife series, focusing on their affordability and quality of construction. The reviewer highlights the effectiveness of these knives as stabbing tools, noting their excellent penetration and lightweight design. However, significant drawbacks are discussed, particularly concerning the thin and difficult-to-grasp handles, which could lead to hand slippage during a thrust. The neck carry option and its potential vulnerabilities in a defensive situation are also examined. While newer models like the Tokyo, Bowie, and Scimitar Spikes are mentioned as improvements offering greater utility, the review centers on older Spike and Tanto versions. The video suggests these knives might be a viable budget backup option for under-the-shirt carry but cautions that they are primarily stabbing implements with poorly designed handles for that specific task.
