About Cold Steel

Cold Steel is a respected brand with a long tradition of producing highly durable knives and tactical tools.

Character and philosophy

The Cold Steel Micro Recon 1 embodies the philosophy of a knife that uncompromisingly combines performance, ergonomics, and durability in a relatively compact format. The Clip Point / Spear hybrid blade offers an excellent balance between piercing ability and cutting performance, making it ideal for a wide range of tasks.

Premium CPM S35VN steel is chosen for its high edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, ensuring consistent performance even under intensive use. The textured G‑10 handle guarantees a firm and secure grip even in demanding conditions, while the Tri‑Ad Lock provides extreme lock strength and security appreciated by demanding users.

The Micro Recon 1 is conceived as a tactical and versatile tool, ready to handle both everyday cutting tasks and more demanding challenges.

Key benefits

  • CPM S35VN – quality steel with excellent edge retention and durability
  • Tri‑Ad Lock – extremely strong and reliable lock
  • Ergonomic G‑10 handle – secure grip in all conditions
  • Tactical design – purposeful profile for versatile use
  • Ambidextrous clip – flexible carry options

Possible limitations

  • The aggressive profile may not be ideal for delicate slicing tasks
  • The medium size may feel too robust for minimalist EDC users
  • In some areas, carrying a knife with a tactical profile may be restricted

Maintenance and care

After use, dry and clean the blade, especially if it has come into contact with moisture or salt. Regularly check the lock function and opening mechanism — light cleaning and lubrication will extend its service life. Maintain the edge with gentle sharpening so it stays sharp, efficient, and reliable.

To preserve optimal sharpness and proper geometry, we recommend the Spyderco Tri‑Angle Sharpmaker Complete Sharpening System 204MF – ideal for plain edges as well.🛒 You can buy it at Moskito.cz.
