Finally, the wait is over. After introducing a one-of-a-kind folder hand-crafted in Italy earlier this year, Cold Steel’s most anticipated new product will soon be available both in-store and online to outdoorsmen and collectors nationwide.

In January, Cold Steel, the undisputed leader in the outdoor knife and tool industry whose products are trusted by professional law enforcement, military and other emergency services personnel around the world, unveiled the updated Recon M1—a compact, yet unyieldingly rugged folding knife complete with a 4-inch, clip-point, premium stainless steel MagnaCut blade.

Boasting improved edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance over other steels typically utilized by knifemakers and featuring impressive resistance to wear, the blade’s MagnaCut steel construction yields undoubtedly one of the best EDC companions on the market. Thanks to its unparalleled sharpness, resilience and durability, the Recon M1 is also an exceptionally functional outdoor tool that outdoorsmen can count on to see them through any cutting challenge they encounter.

And if the hand-made-in-Italy designation doesn’t do it for you, the knife’s remarkable black, stonewashed finish and matching black, sure-grip G10 handle surely will. Not that this folder needs yet another feather in its cap, but the Recon M1 also boasts Cold Steel’s patented Tri-Ad® locking mechanism, a rock-solid lock that secures the blade in place when deployed, protecting users while tackling a wide variety of challenges in the great outdoors. Add to that an integrated pocket clip, and viola. You’ve got the ultimate in convenient, discreet carry all day, every day.
