Counter Tac I Cold Steel – Robust outdoor knife for demanding situations

The Counter Tac I from Cold Steel is a fixed blade knife that stands out due to its spearpoint design and impressive balance. This outdoor knife is designed for survival situations, bushcraft, and as a reliable companion during hunting adventures. With its AUS-8 steel and solid construction, this knife offers the reliability you need in the field.

Experience from the Shogun team

During a multi-day bushcraft expedition, we tested this knife intensively. It was remarkable how easily it cut through rope and branches, even in damp conditions. The grip remained stable, although we did notice that the steel requires regular maintenance after heavy use.

Performance and sharpness of this outdoor knife

The AUS-8 steel is a Japanese steel type known for its good balance between sharpness and ease of maintenance. With a hardness of 58 HRC, this outdoor knife retains its sharpness for a reasonable time. The blade length of 12.7 cm and spearpoint shape make it suitable for various tasks: from working with wood to preparing food.

Grip and ease of use

The black handle sits comfortably in the hand, even during intensive use. With a total length of 24.13 cm, it offers sufficient leverage. As a fixed blade knife, you do not have to worry about an opening mechanism or locking – it is always ready for use.

Who is this knife suitable for?

This outdoor knife is ideal for the advanced outdoor enthusiast looking for a reliable work knife. Bushcrafters and hunters will appreciate the robust construction and the weight of 144 grams, which is perfectly balanced. Collectors will value the classic spearpoint design.

Maintenance and durability

AUS-8 steel is not completely stainless, so regular maintenance is essential. After use, we recommend cleaning and lightly oiling the knife. The included polymer sheath protects the blade excellently during transport and prevents unwanted damage.
