Cold Steel Drop Forged Hunter 52100 High Carbon Fixed Blade Knife - Grey
Survival knife featuring a Drop-Point blade profile, whose design draws inspiration from a hunting knife crafted by Michel Achez, a renowned French bladesmith. Forged entirely from 52100 high carbon steel, recognized for exceptional toughness and resistance to chipping. The blade is finished with a teflon coating, providing a non-reflective matte appearance. Accompanied by a Secure-Ex sheath to ensure safe and convenient everyday carry.
52100 high carbon steel
Forged from 52100 high carbon steel, the knife stands out for its resistance to chipping and notable abrasion resistance. While the blade is not made of stainless steel and demands adequate care and protection for its surface, the exceptional cutting capability and high wear resistance position it among the top-performing traditional carbon steels.
smooth drop-point blade
Equipped with a Drop-Point blade profile, the knife offers a blade length of 102 mm and a thickness of 5 mm. A high flat grind provides a smooth, efficient cutting edge. For enhanced corrosion resistance, a grey teflon coating covers the entire knife, effectively minimizing reflections.
steel handle
The ergonomic steel handle is designed to reduce the likelihood of your hand slipping onto the blade. A hole is located at the end, allowing for the attachment of a cord or lanyard.
Secure-Ex sheath
The sheath supplied with the knife in the Secure-Ex system is crafted from a lightweight and robust material that offers resistance to external conditions. A precisely matched opening combined with a snap-fastened belt loop ensures the knife remains securely in place, reducing the risk of accidental loss. With its belt loop, attachment to a belt is simple, while multiple holes and eyelets provide various options for mounting the sheath on a belt or other gear.

Secure-Ex
Secure-Ex is a system developed by Cold Steel, designed for the safe storage and convenient carrying of knives and tools. Sheaths made with this technology are lightweight, durable, and weather-resistant, making them suitable even for intensive use. They hold the knife securely in the sheath while allowing for quick and smooth draw. The system has a modular design - the sheaths can be supplemented with various fasteners, such as buckles, clips (e.g., C-Clip) or ball chains. This allows the knife to be worn on a belt, around the neck, or in other configurations, according to the user's preferences.
52100
52100 is an American bearing steel with a carbon content of 0.98-1.1%, valued in cutlery for its strength, resistance to chipping, and ability to maintain sharpness. The chromium content (1.3-1.6%) improves abrasion resistance and aids the hardening process. It also contains manganese (0.25-0.45%) and silicon (0.15-0.35%), which increase the strength and elasticity of the steel. After proper hardening, the steel reaches a hardness of 62-64 HRC, making it an ideal material for the production of bushcraft, survival, and hunting knives. Although it is not stainless steel and requires proper maintenance and protective coatings, its cutting properties and wear resistance make it one of the best choices among traditional carbon steels.
Teflon (PTFE)
Teflon coating (PTFE) is a thin polymer layer applied to knife blades, which gives them non-stick properties and reduces friction during cutting. This prevents food, resin, and other sticky materials from sticking to the surface, and cutting requires less effort. Teflon also protects carbon steel from corrosion and gives the blade a dark, matte finish with anti-reflective properties. The coating does not cover the cutting edge, which allows the knife to remain sharp, although it may become scratched and gradually wear out over time.

Super powerful knife. It is indestructible thanks to its one-piece construction. The thick blade makes it almost an axe among knives. I modified mine by covering the handle with rubber and then putting it into a heated heat-shrink tube, which significantly improves grip. It has been with me on 25 forest trips and never let me down.
-
A piece of railroad track, due to its design, the knife can be used as a throwing knife. After wrapping it with paracord, it gains character, fits well in a large hand, and the handle is sufficient for use with gloves. I tightened the strap screws and the knife now clearly clicks into the sheath. 10cm of cutting edge is absolutely enough for me, great steel for good money.
-
The knife fits SUPER well in the hand, the plastic sheath doesn't hold too tight—I guess it's for protecting the coating.
-
I received the knife as a gift. A solid piece of steel. Factory edge is very sharp. The sheath holds securely. Using it is pure pleasure. Compared to other Cold Steel models, a very compact knife. I recommend it.

Ok

The knife, thanks to its well-shaped blade, is easy to sharpen, the steel is hard and maintains sharpness well, and as the previous reviewer already mentioned, nothing here can break, and you really have to try hard to destroy this knife.
-
After a few days of use—I confirm what I wrote before. The sharpness is phenomenal. The 52100 carbon steel is perfect for the knife’s intended purposes. It fits securely in the hand despite the lack of handle scales. If that bothers you, there is a solution—paracord or even better, tennis racket tape. In the photo, 6th from the left.

The Hunter comes factory-sharp as a razor. Painfully minimalistic. Nothing here can break. Whoever knows what it's for will be delighted. It slices meat and separates skin like crazy. 'Little maniac.' This CS series is a success.
-
Nothing to add, nothing to take away. A minimalist hunting knife. Indestructible. Price/quality 5/5. Phenomenally sharp out of the box.
