A lot of cold steel fans came from the shovel! It’s an amazing product at a “cut throat” price 😉 This guy is like the Kalashnikov of knifes, sturdy knifes/tools for the mass!
I was camping with my brothers, and we hiking along a ridge. The ground gave out and i slid down. As i was going my right foot got caught between a down tree branch and a rock, I kept falling and ripped all the connective tissue in my ankle. Used the shove to pry my foot out and make a splint. It didn't help i ended up crawling several miles back to the car. As a side note becuz i was crawling i had ticks all over me and ended up getting treat for lyme disease LOL. I now have 2 plastic bolts in my right ankle. Took 6 months after surgery to walk again.
@R.J. Lewis he did say best 'beater' knives.. meaning inexpensive not top end.. but you can beat up on it and it will last.. I torture my cold steel knives.. I have them from 8-10yrs ago.
Lynn Thompson is such a cool dude! I love the work Cold Steel puts out and their dedication and commitment to their product shows. I helped a buddy lay sod on his acre plot and used my Pro Lite to cut it to size and at the end of the day it still had a working edge on it. That's just outstanding on $25 knife.
Sgt bear - I carry the 4” full serrated Talwar. I think it is far better than the Recon 1 although I love that folder, too. For EDC cutting purposes, obviously the plain edge would be better.
In every video that Lynn Thompson is in he is so passionate about the knives that he and his company produce. It is very contagious and it shows someone that truly loves what they do. He puts a lot of thought and heart into his designs and you can feel his excitement. I will always carry a Cold Steel, Kershaw, and Leatherman with me at all times. Good job bringing him on BladeHQ!
It definitely is a reality in the world today....be safe and watch your back never know and when ....dont ever take your avenues for granted things change real quick...happens all the time every day
I know alot of people talk crap about Cold steel knives. They're definitely a brand you either love or hate. But I'll tell you what. If you ever need a tough knife that gets the job done no matter what you put it through. Cold Steel is the way to go. I love that they're using S35VN now. And man oh man do they come crazy sharp out of the box. They fill a hole in the market that not very many companies do.
Long live the xl cold steel folders. Got a few, just started last year. Edc my large luzon/spartan for the moment. Thanks lynn and cold steel for making these awesome knives
Love Lynn Thompson! Just spent my morning cutting inch think vines with a broken skull. From first to last it went thru so easy. When work needs done it's Cold Steel.
Look at this line up, and tell me Lynn doesn't give a damn. He spares costs in only the most necessary of places, and puts the money where it counts. He makes wonderful knives for the everyday working man, and puts tons of thought into safety and function, and makes the products affordable for damn near everyone. People can talk smack because of the larger than life image he projects, and the very agressive marketing tactics, but Cold Steel fills a role in the knife making world that would leave a gaping void if they weren't around anymore. I support Lynn Thompson, and I think I always will. Also, if you arent aware of this, he has done some amazingly selfless and charitable things, and doesn't ask for credit or recognition. It's genuine.
Dude Jaime is on fire on this video!! The clips are hilarious!! The weightlifter made me blow water out my nose laughing!! And then Mean Gene Okerland was soooo classic!! Good job Jaime!
Just ordered my first ever cold steel knife the the 4 max 62rg knife for work and believe I will not be disappointed. As from what I have researched on TH-cam it is one of the strongest heavy used folders out there. I can tell by looking at the knife that it is going to work for me as it has all the many different thing I am looking for in a knife. I own many different type of knives and different makers for all the different type of uses I have from work & EDC to wood craft and self defense and this knife looks like it could do a pretty good job at any one & all of those tasks.
If you think an out-the-box edge on a Cold Steel product with the typical steel they use, you might just be amazed as to what some fine-grained carbon like shirogami/white #2 from Hitachi...nothing quite like it, and sharpening it by hand is a joy.
I have used my Recon Tanto to chop 2” tree branches while at work. I didn’t even have a slipping of my hand nor did it roll in my hand. I carry it because I trust it and it looks good!
I love Cold Steel knives, and Lynn is such an awesome guy. I'd love to just sit around a fire and listen to him tell stories. He has such an innovative mind, and his love of blades is easy to see. I will be picking up a couple, if not several of these 2020 offerings.
He's easily in the top 10 most egotistical guys I've ever met, but he backs it up with SUPERB knife designs and builds. More than that, he's an avid hunter, supporter of law enforcement and the military, and defender of the Second Amendment. Any video with Lynn Thompson will get me to watch.
This video warms my heart. Been carrying Cold Steel for years. Lynn seems like such a cool guy. Would love to meet him some day. He unapologetically stands behind each product on a personal level. Pretty cool to see someone love design that much.
I remember being in high school having a veteran for a substitute teacher saying he carried a cold steel while deployed. He was super cool I carry a recon 1 tanto
My first Cold Steel was a Ti-Lite for my wife. The first one I carried was an AK47 I picked up in Kabul, love that thing. I think the 4MAX will fit in nicely right next to it.
I had a cold steel full serrated tanto fixed blade I bought with my first tax check when I was 18 almost 25 yrsago .used it all over the house and yard and wore the entire serration down and recently made it a straight edge tanto on the grinder. I've got a very large collection of the machetes and pocket knives collected over the years. awesome stuff
I love CS Blades and Lynn's philosophy on edged tools. I just got my Double safe hunter and 4max scout from Blade HQ and I'm in love to say the least the 4Max is amazing! Thank you CS and Blade HQ!
Lynn Thompson is someone I really respect and I trust Cold Steel. Price, quality and customer service are excellent. And innovation and catalog size are unprecedented
Love this guy so much! He’s such a great guy and such a great knife maker. Everyone should be looking up to him in the knife world. Really great knives. Can’t wait to save up and buy them.
ive done bought 4 kudu`s. An amazing knife. Sharp as a razor and light as a feather.Bought many other Cold steel blades over the years and every one was an awesome blade.Cold steel has never made a bad blade
Collected and accumulated knives since I was a kid. Which was a looong time ago. Cold steel is one of my favorite mfgs. Great value and you have selections from more novel items to straight up work like hell models.
I never bought a Cold Steel but I've always liked watching Lynn Thompson. He seems a genuinely nice guy. If they start making an FFG Tuff Lite, I'd consider it.
I still like Cold Steel, however I had an issue actually brought up in this video about failed locks. Back in the very late 90s I bought a 4 inch Voyager Tanto. I was using it to poke a hole in a large cardboard barrel ( the kind we received wire spools in) and unfortunately the lock failed, cut the tip of my thumb off , juat up to the bone and halfway through my index finger. I just sharpened it the night before so I'm guessing that's why it did so much damage. Anyway, I have steered clear of any lock back folder ever since. I did contact Cold Steel , they asked me to send them the knife to check it, however I had a lot of reservations about sending the knife in as, once it's gone it's gone and so is my proof. I cleaned the knife and put it back in its box and wrapper and still have this knife today. I wouldn't ever use it, but I still have it as a reminder. Yes I'm well aware of Cold steel redesigning the lock to the new version of Axis, but once biting twice shy. I still have an original 7 inch Cold steel Recon Tanto that I swear by and was my go to bush knife for 20 years or so.
Cold steel makes the best “cheap” knives money can buy. I mean that in a nice way also. For $30-$40 I can get a cool folder that is quality steel and construction, great locks and down right cool looking. Lynn, if you or anyone from cold steel read this, I’d like to see a line of hunting knives (fixed or folding) that had day glow colors for the handles. Camouflage is cool, but if you drop it or put it down for a minute, they disappear in the underbrush. Bright colors are what I want in a hunting/outdoor knife so I don’t lose it. Keep the camouflage pocket clip as that will be the only part showing. The day glow will be hidden in your pocket until you pull it out.
"This one is featherweight. Most of our knives come with a lanyard hole that allows them to be easily retrieved from the murky depths in their regular service as boat anchors. This one doesn't need a windlass to pluck it from your pocket. We still advise avoiding deep water, though."
For me, cold steel delivers undeniable quality and safety, attractive and sturdy designs and they offer them at reasonable prices both high and low. I just ordered the 4 max scout and the sr1 lite, 130 bucks for both, you really cannot beat the quality to price ratio there. You get a whole lot for your money and i love how Mr. Thompson stands by his product 100% of the way. He even goes as far as to prove the quality by testing them and posting the videos, really amazing and it is entertaining!
I actually prefer a benchmade atomatic edc...iam from Trinodad lookin for a cool benchmade but got to wait till work starts back cause the vir put a halt on work on my side so gotta do some saving when working is back to het a benchmadeautomatic with a case if iam luckyand I will be cool so u all can give me the guidance I need to get one off those blades if u'll don't mind🤷🏾♂️
I respect Lynn Thompson and I trust Cold Steel. I’ve used many for nearly 20 years and quality, durability, price and design are excellent. They are strong and just take abuse, and their innovation and catalog size are unprecedented
Those "LITE" knives have me really interested. I've always wanted a beefy cold steel but they're so thick in the pocket. Those LITE models are like the best of both worlds.
My 4max scout arrived today. When I opened the box and he come out of bubble wrapping, I just felt happy and had I biggest smile. Anyway l love this beast
Most of us are looking at a knife with the opening of another knife box in mind, Lynn is looking at his knives as to how he can inflict the most damage on a human.
That air lite though!! Omg thats a beautiful knife, it really reminds me of the cold steel broken skull :D which is my favorite cold steel knife ever :)
Great video... this gentleman is a class act. I don’t have any of his knives, but will be picking one up. He speaks to the average man that may not have his knowledge, but can relate. Hope to see more videos with him in it.
@@halfbaked3373 I can agree, if you use it to open cardboard boxes, but I beg to differ in any other case. I've never owned a bugout and I never will. If you want to know why, watch what Wranglerstar said about it. For me, it just won't cut it. :) th-cam.com/video/TXm_GTDXfNk/w-d-xo.html
@@damyr the bugout punches well above its weight, literally and figuratively. Despite what wranglerstar says its actually a durable knife. He didnt do any hard use with it because "it didnt feel premium," he hated the plastic and apparently it pinched his finger every time he opened it. It's a knife that can do some real work. I bet kurt and zac would agree.
@@mattpardy2826 nah, for me, the bugout looks like a flimsy chinese toy knife. I can't even imagine to carry it or use it or even look at it. It's like an ultimate cringe (not) knife... and the fact it costs a 100 bucks... I mean... gah! I just want to puke. It's overrated AF!

Jacob De Leon I did not notice that the first time around I felt so awkward for him I blanked out.

Got me laughing 😆
I’m pretty sure it’s in big part just a safety mesure. But it was fun for sure.
Edit : seeing the rest of the vid it may not be XD
Everyone else: $300 for our luxury tool
Cold steel: $75 for our super weapon
Got me a code 4 in s35vn for 80 bucks great price.
That’s why I have like 20 Cold Steel knives and maybe like 4 or 5 from other companies
Code 4!Me too!
tbh I love my $370 4-Max but I might even get the budget version too, that really is a bang for buck knife.
unrepeatable raddish or he just likes cold steel knives. Get a brain and think before you type, you might not have to edit your comment next time.
I had a freak camping accident, and i had a Cold Steel Shovel on me. It literally saved my life. I am a huge fan of their products.
Story? If it's not to traumatic ofc.
A lot of cold steel fans came from the shovel! It’s an amazing product at a “cut throat” price 😉 This guy is like the Kalashnikov of knifes, sturdy knifes/tools for the mass!
TELL THE STORY OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN
@@gaylordpantamime crapped himself and buried the evidence. ;)
I was camping with my brothers, and we hiking along a ridge. The ground gave out and i slid down.

I don't care what anyone says, Cold Steel makes the best beater knives!
Yup, great users for sure
I definitely agree. I'm looking at the 4max as my vehicle knife
They make the cheapest usable blades far from the best
@@Cheese_Boi1986 not that I care but just as a reference, who's the best?
@R.J. Lewis he did say best 'beater' knives.. meaning inexpensive not top end.. but you can beat up on it and it will last.. I torture my cold steel knives.. I have them from 8-10yrs ago.
Can we just talk about how Lynn obviously built up an immunity to sharp edges and can no longer cut his skin? He has reached dragon scale status.
I could listen to this guy talk forever! Love Blade Hq!
Yeah when I saw this video I was all in.
Dear Blade HQ, any video with Lynn Thompson gets an instant 👍 from me, he’s such a unique knife-guy. Thanks for the quality videos!
Thanks for tuning in!
100% agreed. ❤
Cold Steel's new motto " An ounce of Lynn Thompson's arm hair with every knife".
Lol my nigga I laughed waaay to hard at this hahahah
Much respect, a man whom didn't forget where he came from.
Gotta love Lynn. The definition of standing by your product.
Lynn Thompson = auto like 👍
best bang for your buck, those kris blades are badass
Everybody gather round, uncle Lynn is talking about knives.
Lynn Thompson is such a cool dude! I love the work Cold Steel puts out and their dedication and commitment to their product shows. I helped a buddy lay sod on his acre plot and used my Pro Lite to cut it to size and at the end of the day it still had a working edge on it. That's just outstanding on $25 knife.
I love my pro lite! I have the tanto and clip. I use the tanto to pry field points out of my back stop when I shoot my bow. Knife is a workhorse!
Lynn Thompson is literally the bob ross of blades, he’s so damn calm 😂😂
angry buffalo: dafuq you want??
Lynn Thompson: don't worry, I'm just the Bob Ross...... OF BLADES
angry buffalo: *death rattle*
So calm while talking about maximizing blade penetration.
I've carryed cold steel folders with me overseas. When it comes to a folder for self defense I don't buy any other brand. Great video thanks
Code 4 + Recon 1 is the way to go
Sgt bear - I carry the 4” full serrated Talwar. I think it is far better than the Recon 1 although I love that folder, too. For EDC cutting purposes, obviously the plain edge would be better.
Luzon, best self defense value that can be had
Wouldnt it be illegal?
In every video that Lynn Thompson is in he is so passionate about the knives that he and his company produce. It is very contagious and it shows someone that truly loves what they do. He puts a lot of thought and heart into his designs and you can feel his excitement. I will always carry a Cold Steel, Kershaw, and Leatherman with me at all times. Good job bringing him on BladeHQ!
I always love how he talks about how effective they are against people as if that's a common thing
It definitely is a reality in the world today....be safe and watch your back never know and when ....dont ever take your avenues for granted things change real quick...happens all the time every day
Yea. Knives as self defense is stupid.
Can stab a person tons of times without them backing down an attack
Knife can easily be takin from you and used against you.
It will always be a factor when I buy a knife..
Well he's actually defended himself with one of his knives against someone.
Lynn creates brand loyalty simply because of his passion.
I know alot of people talk crap about Cold steel knives. They're definitely a brand you either love or hate. But I'll tell you what.

The CS knives are not to my personal taste, but Lynn Thompson seems to really want everyone to have a good knife regardless of their budget.

My old spartan took me to the bone when I was cutting a zip tie. The damn thing was so sharp, I never expected it to cut so easily.

@@pierogiguy My American Lawman knife out of the box was the sharpest knife I've ever held in hand to this day.

Nathaniel Miller Wait, you used a Ti-Lite on your wife?! 😱
@@alpine1600slol. It was actually a lot a concealable knife for her when I got deployed.
Can't get enough of your Cold Steel knives thanks Lynn Thompson .
Im 100% getting most of these over 2020!! Love coldsteel! Such hones and real dudes!!!!!
I had a cold steel full serrated tanto fixed blade I bought with my first tax check when I was 18 almost 25 yrsago .used it all over the house and yard and wore the entire serration down and recently made it a straight edge tanto on the grinder. I've got a very large collection of the machetes and pocket knives collected over the years. awesome stuff
Jamie's editing is on point here! 😂
Lynn's enthusiasm is always contagious.
I love CS Blades and Lynn's philosophy on edged tools. I just got my Double safe hunter and 4max scout from Blade HQ and I'm in love to say the least the 4Max is amazing! Thank you CS and Blade HQ!
That 4-Max is 🔥🔥
How do you like the double safe?; do you know where it's made? Thank you.
What an outstanding presentation, nice work Zac. Mr. Thompson you are awesome, thank you for your dedication.
Lets force cold steel in to making a spartan with a tanto tip
Andreas Küünal damn never thought of that! That would look awesome! Tanto! Tanto! Tanto!
Andreas Küünal ummm the kopis/kukri blade makes the Spartan, the Spartan.🤔
But than it would get rid of the Kopis style blade shape, which kinda kills the point of the 'Spartan', not?
Get a Voyager for now. I love it.
Love my spartan
Lynn Thompson is someone I really respect and I trust Cold Steel. Price, quality and customer service are excellent. And innovation and catalog size are unprecedented
Yes. I love all my Cold Steel knives
Love this guy so much! He’s such a great guy and such a great knife maker. Everyone should be looking up to him in the knife world. Really great knives. Can’t wait to save up and buy them.
Just know that, if Lynn Thompson is around, nobody else is speaking 😂😂😂
Cold Steel knocked it out of the ball park this year! Both of those Kris blades are perfection. I love how he covers all the price ranges too
The “can’t touch this” had me dying
ive done bought 4 kudu`s. An amazing knife. Sharp as a razor and light as a feather.Bought many other Cold steel blades over the years and every one was an awesome blade.Cold steel has never made a bad blade
"One of my corvettes" a man with taste
@Old Luke bruh he's living the American dream. Dont hate appreciate
Idk I would go with a CTS V over a corvette anyday
I bought my first Cold Steel 1998 at a gun show and I have been carrying one ever since. Thank you for excellent blades !
Lynn is very entertaining and informative when he discusses knives. They're like his little children LOL
Always a pleasure to listen to Lynn Thompson. Awesome line this year
i am going to share this video that man on the right sure does take pride in his work you don't see that anymore
I look forward to seeing Lynn every year.
Lynn Thompson is freakin awesome!! Such a great guy!!
That ranch boss reminds me of the knife my grandpa carried , I think I’m going to get one to pass down. The liner lock is such a great feature to me.
I'd still like to get my hands on the Scimitar folder they made all those years ago. Didn't have the money to buy it back then...
Collected and accumulated knives since I was a kid. Which was a looong time ago. Cold steel is one of my favorite mfgs. Great value and you have selections from more novel items to straight up work like hell models.
Anyone else want to see a sitdown interview with Lynn Thompson and Nick Shabazz together?🤣
Absolutely. Lol.
Wow...what a interview that would be lol...awkward as heck lol hahaha.
Cringe
What a concept!!!!!!!!!! I will subscribe to the channel that carries it.
Lynn and Lugermonger
I bought my first Cold Steel Knife (4” Voyager) around 1996-1997. Have loved them ever since.
Cold Steel: Ranch Boss 2 comes out, cowboy knife, classic knife
Buck: you mean 110 😲😡
I never bought a Cold Steel but I've always liked watching Lynn Thompson. He seems a genuinely nice guy. If they start making an FFG Tuff Lite, I'd consider it.
I really enjoyed this more low energy episode! I enjoy all your vids, but it would be cool if you did more relaxed videos every now and then!
Thanks for the feedback!
Love CS ... been following them since '81. My go to carry knife!

Cold steel makes the best “cheap” knives money can buy. I mean that in a nice way also. For $30-$40 I can get a cool folder that is quality steel and construction, great locks and down right cool looking.

4 Max for days!
@@BladeHQ how much ?
I like how the hippy thinks rope, where Lynn is thinking HUMAN FLESH!
I EDC my rajah 2 and it's never failed me
The overall best large folder from coldsteel imo
TK Sproule Such a great looking knife. Definitely my next purchase. Bought the XL Espada and the XL Vaquero last week.
My 4max scout arrived today. When I opened the box and he come out of bubble wrapping, I just felt happy and had I biggest smile. Anyway l love this beast
Most of us are looking at a knife with the opening of another knife box in mind, Lynn is looking at his knives as to how he can inflict the most damage on a human.
When I see Lynn Thompson..... I click on it. Almost guaranteed like.
No one beats Cold Steel. ❤
That air lite though!! Omg thats a beautiful knife, it really reminds me of the cold steel broken skull :D which is my favorite cold steel knife ever :)
Watch the Cold Steel video with Andrew Demko where he talks about how he came up with it...started as a modified broken skull that he carried
I don't care what people say about Lynn, he is a great guy. I have a ton of respect for him.
"Life-long Phillipino martial artist" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Don't you wise you could be one 😉 dude is friends with Dan Inosanto and many of the martial artist from that culture.
Great video... this gentleman is a class act. I don’t have any of his knives, but will be picking one up. He speaks to the average man that may not have his knowledge, but can relate. Hope to see more videos with him in it.
Lynn ( or Mr.Thompson), if you love and listen to your customers, please bring back the Black Rhino and/or the Black Sable. Maybe in g10? Thanks
Bring back the cold steel Culloden
Thank you, Lynn! Us down in Texas love you too!
"Its just over 3oz., featherweight"
Laughs in bugout
Yes, because bugout is for feather cutting and nothing more.
@@damyr does everything you need a folder to do tbf just don't baton with it :')
@@halfbaked3373 I can agree, if you use it to open cardboard boxes, but I beg to differ in any other case.
I've never owned a bugout and I never will. If you want to know why, watch what Wranglerstar said about it. For me, it just won't cut it. :)

@@damyr the bugout punches well above its weight, literally and figuratively. Despite what wranglerstar says its actually a durable knife. He didnt do any hard use with it because "it didnt feel premium," he hated the plastic and apparently it pinched his finger every time he opened it. It's a knife that can do some real work. I bet kurt and zac would agree.
@@mattpardy2826 nah, for me, the bugout looks like a flimsy chinese toy knife. I can't even imagine to carry it or use it or even look at it. It's like an ultimate cringe (not) knife... and the fact it costs a 100 bucks... I mean... gah! I just want to puke. It's overrated AF!
Whoever edited this video did an amazing job!👌👌
Lynn Thompson doesn't talk to people he talks at them
Lynn's passion for knives is awesome.
