While cold steel appreciates the immense cutting and piercing power of large fixed blade knives, the reality is that openly carrying them often attracts unwarranted attention or comments. On the other hand, compact fixed blades like the Kyoto knives tend to blend In or even receive approval due to their small size and inconspicuous design. In traditional and reinforced point variations, these knives possess remarkable cutting and thrusting capabilities that defy their unassuming appearance. With robust full tang blades and stainless steel guards, coupled with high-traction Kray-Ex handles designed to mimic cord-wrapped Japanese sword handles, they offer both functionality and elegance. The sleek sheath is adaptable, accommodating bead chain lanyd or cold steel C-Clips for versatile carrying options.
