Note, the knife has a single-sided serrated blade, which unfortunately means the other side is blunt (no blade). Only 3 stars for the lack of a double-edged blade. Very good sheath and build quality.

The push-dagger knife with a "T" grip features a handle set perpendicular to the blade, purpose-built for tactical use and personal defense. Outfitted with a serrated blade in a dagger profile, crafted from Japanese AUS-8A stainless steel, and treated with a satining process for a semi-matte finish. A black handle made from Kray-Ex material delivers a secure and reliable grip. Included is a Secure-Ex system sheath for safe carry.
Japanese AUS-8A steel
Forged from Japanese AUS-8A steel, the blade offers exceptional edge retention and can be easily resharpened when necessary. Thanks to advanced heat treatment, the blade achieves a hardness of 58-60 HRC, ensuring impressive strength, cutting efficiency, and long-lasting durability.
symmetrical dagger blade, satin finish
Dagger-style serrated blade with a length of 38 mm and a thickness of 2 mm, expertly finished using the satining technique to provide a semi-matte surface that reduces glare and enhances resistance to superficial abrasions.
Kray-Ex handle scales
The handle of the knife is crafted from Kray-Ex material with deep texturing, providing a solid and dependable grip. Renowned for its exceptional shock resistance, Kray-Ex efficiently absorbs vibrations caused by impacts or thrusts. The ergonomic handle design prevents hand slippage, ensuring precise knife control, even in wet conditions or when gloves are worn.
Secure-Ex system sheath
Constructed from a lightweight, durable, and weather-resistant material, the sheath incorporated in the Secure-Ex system ensures a reliable hold on the knife, effectively minimizing the risk of accidental drops. Featuring a key ring attachment, the knife is conveniently carried as a keychain.

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.
Kray-Ex
Kray-Ex is a synthetic polymer with a rubber-like structure used by Cold Steel to manufacture knife handles. It is characterized by high adhesion and anti-slip properties, ensuring a secure grip even in high humidity, low temperatures, and with dirty hands. The material is flexible and absorbs shocks well, which increases comfort of use. Kray-Ex is also resistant to cracking, abrasion, chemicals, and adverse weather conditions, making handles made of this material durable and virtually maintenance-free. Cold Steel uses it in tactical, survival, and utility knives.
AUS-8A
AUS-8A is a Japanese stainless steel, equivalent to 440B steel, characterized by a good balance between corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening, and edge retention. The carbon content (0.7-0.75%) affects the hardness of the steel, while chromium (13-14.5%) provides very good corrosion and abrasion resistance. Vanadium additives (up to 0.26%) improve the homogeneity of the steel's crystal structure and increase the blade's resistance to abrasion. The steel also contains molybdenum (0.1-0.3%), manganese (0.5%), silicon (0.4-1%), and nickel (0.49%). After proper heat treatment, AUS-8 steel achieves a hardness of 58-60 HRC, making it a solid material with good cutting properties and durability. The steel is widely used in mid-range knives, mainly produced in Japan and Taiwan, such as the popular Ontario RAT 1.
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.
