G-10 Folding Knife, X-Large Espada, 7 1/2" stonewashed Blade, Ambidextrous Stainless Pocket/Belt Clip

Well built

Super .

My Espada XL arrived today. I give this my highest recommendation. I was an FBI Special Agent for 30 years, and a firearms instructor, and I realized I just can't carry a gun everywhere, all the time, anymore. So at 65 years old I got this ridiculously large folding knife. You NEED this. Do not be reluctant because of the size, it's the size that makes this a formidable weapon and one which you probably won't need to use just because of its terrifying appearance. No, it's not too big to carry. The grip is narrow and the whole shebang is very light. I had it clipped to the inside of my pocket on my cargo pants all day and you'd never even notice it. I think the narrowness of the grip and the light weight makes it an incredibly easy every day carry. My car keys and key fob are more of a distraction than this, it's too thin and light to matter. The blade is very sharp. Without any practice at all, I swept it out of my pocket and the thumb "thingy" caught on my pants and opened the blade right frigging there. Half the time it fully opened and half the time it just required a swing and it locked out, all 15+ inches of horror, ready for action. I don't have ANY criticisms, but you really have to press down hard to unlock the blade and fold it back, so you'd better wipe all the blood off your hands before you stow it. This gets an eleven on the ten scale, simply amazing.

Das legendäre Cold Steel Espada XL mag nicht billig sein, aber meiner Meinung nach ist es sein Geld wert. Der Griff ist wirklich genial, das Messer ist mit unterschiedlichen Griffpositionen sicher zu handhaben. Für das Backlock braucht es allerdings einen starken Daumen, Schwächlinge bekommen das nicht wieder auf. Allerdings ist mir bei so einer gewaltigen, scharfen Klinge ein starkes Backlock wesentlich lieber als irgendein klappriger Schrottsicherungsmechanismus.

This is magnificent. It's the most overbuilt locker I've seen. It's huge, larger than I thought yet it still fits in my pocket and also much lighter than it looks. Doesn't pull my pocket clip down and also it won't accidentally fall out until I take it out. It also has a nice feature that with a little technique, will deploy while taking it out of my pocket one handed. If you need something overbuilt, ready in a second with maximum usage, this is worth it. If I saw someone pull this out of their pocket, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near the pointy part... 5/5= reach 5/5=locker 4/5=discrete carry 5/5=carry-able, it's light enough to never have a reason to leave it at home 5/5=slicing steak, it will catch the attention of a few others at any BBQ when the host issues plastic knives for us. 5/5=value for this Espada... it's NOT for anyone who's never carried a pocket knife and if you're like me (whose had a folder since I was 4yo) it is the Claymore of folders.

Excelente, la navaja esta robusta gran calidad la que maneja cold steel. Y es primera vez que la recojo de un locker que maneja Amazon, espero mas proveedores puedan enviar a este apoya que maneja amazon.
