A design collaboration between Cold Steel President Lynn C Thompson and custom knife-maker Andrew Demko, the Black Talon II is a modern masterpiece! It’s sinuously curved, needle sharp blade still features the distinctive down-swept point and pronounced belly of the original, but with all new high end American S35VN super-steel and a re-designed tip for additional strength and durability. The textured premium G10 scales offer maximum retention and grip even in cold or wet conditions while still being kind on your clothing when drawn from the pocket.
