Cold Steel AD-10 Folding Knife

Cold Steel AD-10 Folding Knife.

If you're planning a big hunt, a dangerous expedition, or an exciting adventure and want to take a high-performance folding knife that won't attract unwanted attention, look no further than Andrew Demko's AD-10. Similar to Andrew's massive 4-Max, but with reduced size and weight, the AD-10 features an ultra-wide ground blade that ends in a robust (yet non-threatening) drop point. Ground thin at the edge and honed to razor sharpness, the AD-10 delivers unprecedented cutting, slicing, and piercing power in a blade that remains remarkably resistant to bending, breaking, or chipping. The AD-10's handle is also strong and user-friendly, with full-length heat-treated aluminum liners, 3D-machined G-10 scales, and oversized pins and bolts; thanks to its precise contouring and integrated finger guard, it fits comfortably and securely in the hand. No blade would be complete without a reliable locking mechanism, so we incorporated Andrew's famous Tri-Ad lock. Over time, it has proven unmatched in strength, shock resistance, and durability, offering unparalleled protection for your irreplaceable fingers. And to ensure lightning-fast deployment and comfortable carry, we equipped the AD-10 with an ambidextrous thumb stud and dual pocket clips.

Cold Steel is a company dedicated to making the strongest and sharpest knives in the world. Over the last three decades, Cold Steel has been at the forefront of many innovations that helped define the knife industry. Progressive achievements, including the introduction of checkered Kraton® handles and tanto point blade styles, evolved from curiously interesting features into industry hallmarks of quality and sophistication. New ground was also broken with the introduction of unique new blade steels such as San Mai III® and the Tri-Ad ™ Lock & locking mechanism for folding knives. For example, the Tri-Ad ™ Lock has never been equaled by any of Cold Steel's competitors, and nothing they have produced so far has been shown to surpass it. Of course, Cold Steel will always look to the future and will continually strive to make the strongest and sharpest knives in the world. This goal, as elusive and difficult to achieve as it is, has remained the same for the last forty years.
