Review: Good quality. Well made very durable. Not too heavy highly recommended - This was very nice. I did return it because I just decided I didn't need it. But it was very nice, it was very sharp. It was very good quality and seem to be extremely well. Made very durable, and it was weighted, perfect. Just a little more than I expected, as far as size. So I returned it like I said It does give you date good, quick speed movement. Because it is not too heavy and it was a good deal for the money as well. So it's good quality. I just didn't want it. It was too much for what I needed. It for but it was a good deal

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Warning ⚠️ Extremely sharp!
*by J***. on October 29, 2024*

This is a baby katana! More than razor sharp, this is surgical sharp. Real nice size for an excellent fighting or slashing weapon. It's about as thick as a silver dollar and feels really good in hand. I haven't used it but I garentee it will stand up to all the rigorous things your using your bushcraft knife for like chopping and batoning . I'm saving this knife in shtf bag mainly for skinning and preparing game but also would be nice in event someone needs surgery. This thing rocks and is extremely durable and it's got thick black paint to stop it from rusting or wearing down. I now own the cold steel kobun and this RSK and both I can't say anything bad about, there built to last and extremely sharp. The checkered rubberized black handle makes these very easy to use and deploy with excellent grip and I'm definitely buying another just for my car. The recon tanto is so much better than the kobun but both are very nice to have. I like the black paint because it won't create a glare in sunlight or other light. I'm thinking about blueing the kobun so it's not so shiny. This recon tanto is thicker than any knife I own except my bush knife/ machete and it's built to last forever, I'm not telling you to use it as a prybar or screwdriver but for regular use you shouldn't ever need another. The tool steel it's made of should retain an edge for quite some time and take edge easily when it's time to sharpen. I'm a huge fan of cold steel and I only have bought 2 of their knives and I'm planning on buying the $600 cpm3v kukri because it's talking to me bad and will replace your machete and hatchet. I'll definitely 100% recommend the recon tanto and the smaller kobun. By far the sharpest knives iv ever saw and I'm 39 years old, iv saw my fair share of knives. The recon tanto has a really nice 7 inch blade and very nice sheath and handle. The sheath is of incredible quality and will last the life of the knife unlike leather sheaths that don't last a decade or so in heavy use. I'm a very happy customer 😀 with my cold steel recon tanto and kobun. Just received my 2nd one and its just as good as the other. This is the best survival knife on earth in my opinion.
