Great folder for a reasonable price. Quality as expected from CS—very good. Ergonomics and mechanics are excellent on my copy. I think it would put many more expensive folders to shame.

Cold Steel Double Safe Hunter OD Green Folding knife 8Cr13MoV
EDC Folding Knife designed for Every Day Carry from the Hunter series, drawing inspiration from the renowned Voyager model. Outfitted with a blade that boasts a Clip-Point profile, crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel. A satin finish on the blade delivers a stylish semi-matte appearance. Efficient deployment is ensured by a double-sided thumb stud. The blade remains securely open thanks to a Back Lock mechanism, reinforced with an additional sliding lock for improved safety. The handle, presented in OD Green, utilizes glass-fiber reinforced nylon (GFN) to ensure a secure, non-slip grip. Everyday portability is enhanced with a spring clip for convenient carry.
8Cr13MoV stainless steel
Featuring a blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, this knife delivers an optimal combination of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and straightforward maintenance. Following a thorough heat treatment process, the blade attains a hardness rating of 57-58 HRC, guaranteeing reliable cutting performance under demanding conditions.
Clip-Point profile blade, satin finish
Outfitted with a Clip-Point profile, the blade measures 76.2 mm in length and 3 mm in thickness. A smooth cutting edge is combined with a high grind for precision performance. Finished by the satin method, the blade boasts a semi-matte look, providing an appealing visual effect and enhanced resistance to scratches. Blade geometry is engineered to deliver outstanding cutting performance while ensuring robust durability.
Durable handle with GFN
Handle scales crafted from rugged glass-fiber reinforced nylon (GFN) deliver lasting durability, with an ergonomic contour and textured, non-slip surface for a confident, secure hold. A dedicated finger groove increases tool control, even in wet or grimy conditions. Daily carry comfort is maximized by a spring clip on the handle, permitting attachment to a belt or gear. Fully reversible, the clip can be configured for both right- and left-hand operation. An integrated lanyard hole at the handle’s end enables easy attachment of a safety cord or lanyard.
Back Lock with additional safety
A classic Back Lock system secures the blade when open. For added safety during transport, a sliding lock also holds the blade firmly in the closed position. Quick, one-handed deployment is made possible thanks to the blade’s double-sided thumb stud, designed for efficient thumb operation.

8Cr13MoV (8Cr13)
8Cr13MoV (8Cr13) is a Chinese stainless steel equivalent to Japanese AUS-8 steel. It offers a good balance between corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening, and edge retention. The carbon content (approximately 0.8%) affects the hardness of the steel, while chromium (13%) provides very good corrosion and abrasion resistance. Additions of molybdenum (0.3%), vanadium (up to 0.2%), manganese (0.5%), and silicon (0.4%) improve abrasion resistance and the stability of the steel structure. 8Cr13MoV is often used in the production of knives, including by companies such as Spyderco and Benchmade, which manufacture in China. After proper heat treatment, 8Cr13MoV steel achieves a hardness of 56-58 HRC, which makes it a material with good cutting properties, easy to sharpen, and relatively resistant to wear.
Satin
Satin finishing is one of the most popular blade finishes, achieved by grinding the steel with fine-grained abrasives. Parallel micro-scratches remain on the surface, giving the knife a technical, matte appearance. Satin finishing has both aesthetic and practical significance - a smoothed blade is easier to clean, and the slightly reduced friction promotes smoother cutting. Depending on the direction and intensity of polishing, different effects are achieved - from a matte finish to an almost mirror-like finish. Satin is valued in both utility and collector's knives because it emphasizes the structure and quality of the steel while maintaining functionality.
GFN - Glass Filled Nylon
GFN (Glass Filled Nylon) is a nylon reinforced with glass fiber, offering low weight, high durability, and resistance to moisture and many chemicals. The material performs exceptionally well in demanding conditions, maintaining its strength even under intensive use. GFN surfaces may be completely smooth or textured to improve grip, providing better control and overall ergonomics. The robustness of GFN handles has made this material a standard in the production of EDC (Everyday Carry) knives as well as lightweight tactical designs.

On a daily basis, I use a much heavier folder, the SR1 Lite, also from CS, so I had to get used to the Hunter. At first, because of the lighter weight and thinner design, it seemed delicate, but after a while I could already tell it’s another solid knife from Cold Steel. Very sharp, and the double locking mechanism gives a complete sense of security. When folded, it doesn’t bother you in your pocket and its weight is hardly noticeable, unlike the SR1, which pulls your pants down.
