## Description

COLD STEEL TAI PAN VG-10 SAN MAI FIXED BLADE KNIFE: Like its serpent namesake, the Tai Pan is aggressively fast and deadly. Designed by Lynn C. Thompson in the distinctive "Tanto" style, the Tai Pan embodies all the best features of a classic dagger while minimizing its shortcomings. Most daggers are notorious for having thin, fragile points that are easily broken. In contrast, the Tai Pan features a sturdy spear point which is wide and thick enough to resist breaking without compromising its ability to offer deep, effortless, penetration. The blade is made from superior VG-10 San Mai steel that provides superior edge-holding ability while still being able to withstand impact and lateral stresses. To keep the user's fingers from sliding forward onto their keen edge, the Tai Pan comes with a solid steel double quillon guard. The handle is made of deeply checkered Kray-Ex. To carry the Tai Pan knife safely and conveniently, each blade comes complete with a sturdy and versatile Secure-Ex sheath. FEATURES: - VG-10 San Mai steel spear point blade; - Kray-Ex Handle; - Secure-Ex Sheath. SPECS: Weight: 10.8 oz (306.2 g); Blade Thickness: 5 mm; Blade Length: 7.5"; Handle Length: 7.5"; Overall Length: 13".

Review: Great - Great Quality! First I was not sure about the plastik handle but even this has great Quality, worth the price
Review: Very high quality - According to the logo on the box and the knife blade this seems to be the older version dating back before the sale of Cold Steel. This is a collector's item IMO. Very high quality and quite sharp out of the box but it could use a stropping. The sheath is a bit tight so it doesn't wiggle around but it will probably loosen up as time goes on. The logo on the other knife in the photo is the new company that bought out Cold Steel.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how long is the blade and is it a full tang knife?**
A: The total blade length is 7 3/8th inches. The total cutting length is 7 inches. And yes it is full tang. The ONLY way to get 7 1/2 blade length is to measure below the guard which makes no sense, otherwise 7 3/8ths. This is an OUTSTANDING knife and one of my favorites. However. This is NOT a backpacking survival knife, or a wood working knife, or even a kitchen knife although it really cuts meat. The sheath is set up for any carry, belt, gear, what have you and well designed and made. Blade is amazing as are the handle and butt cap. Typical great Cold Steel quality for this style. This is a self defense, carry (depending on the laws in your State or country), or collectors knife. As it is a hollow grind being foolish with its use will make you make a sad face. Again I cannot say how much I like this knife, fit, finish, balance, feel, edge, steel used, grip quality, all outstanding. I hope this helps.

**Q: Where is it made?**
A: Made in Taiwan will be good quality. Made in China will be inferior steel.  I had to look through very many Seal Pup knives before finding one made in Taiwan.......there is a difference.

**Q: What type of steel does it have?**
A: To the person that said this cheaply made….you’re wrong. They have great knives and use good materials. You’re getting your facts mixed up on where junk is made.  Cold steel has a good reputation in the knife collecting community

**Q: I ordered my knife from abcd sales is it going to be authentic?**
A: It should be, if not Amazon will refund your money on return. They won’t tolerate Cold Steel fakes being sold. I have the same knife and got it on Amazon for $128.00 a smoking deal and authentic too.
