 Big knife for a little price Jan 06, 2011
By SaintGrey
Amazing knife and all for 64 bones. The package arrived a day early with product in mint condition. No nicks, burs, coating problems or the like. Be aware that this IS a big knife and shouldn't be considered for EDC although it is concealable [use a mercharness. Check your local laws for regulations]. It arrives razor sharp and battle ready. The grip is quite comfortable for extended use but my only beef with it is the way the rivet is set into the handle. The grip material extends over it to the point it does have some tendency to snag on things. Rather minor but note worthy. Over all I'm more than happy with it and if you're looking for a large tactical blade, this is it.

Premium Tactical Knife Unbelievable Bargain!!! Jan 06, 2011
By JaxDave
Being in the professional protection field I've owned many high quality tactical knives over the years. I've paid up to 3 times more for knives that didn't come close to the Recon Tanto. This is without a doubt this is the best "Bang for your buck" tactical knife I have ever owned. It is well balanced, lightweight, virtually indestructible and has an insanely sharp edge. This is my first Cold Steel knife and after receiving it immediately bought the folding model to replace my CRKT Tiger Striped Triumph (the edge doesn't come close to the Cold Steel).
When your life is on the line you need the most reliable equipment you can get your hands on. I see the Cold Steel Recon Tanto as the Glock of the tactical knife world. Not the most expensive, not the prettiest, but its reliability, cutting and penetrating abilities will get the job done!

Cold Steel Recon Tanto May 25, 2010
By Darshan Patel
"D"
I just got this knife in the mail. Arrived as mentioned, the packing was safe and reliable, and insulated (not that the knife needs it) as well. I ordered the knife despite some of the bad reviews on Amazon about recon tanto not being a carbon V blade, but I also performed out side research about this knife. I have no regrets about the knife, just looking at the silver line of the sharpen blade makes you feel that you have gotten cut (as I had previously read on one of the review) the blade is well balanced, and has a good weight to it.
The sheath needs a little work, but overall design is great if you are making a survival kit, you can easily attach the pouch to the sheath.
As I mentioned that I just got this knife, so have not yet placed it in use. I will let you know how this beauty performs in wild and holds up to abuse.

 cold steel recon tanto Mar 13, 2010
By John F. Deaton
Ive wanted one of these for years. When i found it on amazon for less than 64.00 i added it to shopping cart . I have bought cold steel knives for years. bowies , fighters , both fixed and folding knives.
My list is Trailmaster , Recon Scout ,Tri-Lite 6", Xl-Voyger, Larado Bowie , Sparton, and now the Recon Tanto . No long winded review here, these knives are the best in production knives i have ever owned. Most of all, they do what cold steel says they will do! But for best prices on there products, shop around. If you by from Cold Steel directly, like i did for several of the knives ive mentioned, it will be far more expensive. These knives are SHARP, TOUGH, TOOLS!The bowie knives are a must for campers who like to build camp fires and shelters.I gave the recon tanto 4 stars ONLY because its not the carbon 5 as descrbed, however, i still have complete faith in aus-8a steel.IM glad i bought when i did! They cost 25.00 more now. I cant see anybody that knows knives not being a satisfied owner of one of these knives even if bought at full retail! These knives put other popular brand name knives to shame in toughness and edge holding ability. :D

TANTO Aug 15, 2011
By Amazon Customer
The knife that put Cold Steel on the map (in my opinion) and one of the best knives on the market. You will not be disappointed.
