Cold Steel – CS21SS – Spartan – Folding Knife – AUS-10A Stonewash Kukri Serrated – Griv-Ex – Gray

Description

Cold Steel CS21SS Spartan Folding Knife is a purpose-built, full-size tactical folder designed for users who demand strength, speed, and reliability in a hard-use cutting tool. Designed by renowned custom knife maker Andrew Demko, the Spartan has earned its reputation as one of Cold Steel’s most recognizable and trusted folding knives. This specific model, SKU 21SS, features a fully serrated blade that excels at cutting fibrous, tough, and abrasive materials where plain edges often struggle. The blade design is inspired by the legendary Kukri, delivering forward-weighted cutting power and exceptional slicing efficiency. Crafted from Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel, the blade offers an excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. The stonewashed finish reduces glare and helps mask wear from regular use, making this knife as practical as it is aggressive in appearance. Safety and durability are central to the Spartan’s design. The handle draws inspiration from the ancient Kopis sword and is constructed from rugged Griv-Ex, reinforced with heat-treated steel liners. This construction provides a secure, confidence-inspiring grip even during demanding tasks. Cold Steel’s renowned Tri-Ad lock system adds another layer of strength, delivering exceptional lockup integrity and resistance to shock and impact. This locking mechanism is widely regarded as one of the strongest and safest folding knife locks available today. The patented Demko thumb plate allows for versatile deployment options. The blade can be opened manually with one hand or rapidly deployed by catching the thumb plate on the edge of a pocket during the draw, making it ideal for tactical, utility, or emergency scenarios. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket/belt clip ensures comfortable and adaptable carry for both right- and left-handed users.
