About Cold Steel

Cold Steel is a brand with a long tradition of producing knives and outdoor tools focused on practical use and reliability. The brand’s products are valued for their straightforward construction, durability, and ability to perform in real-world use, not just in a display case.

Character and philosophy

The Cold Steel Counter Point I embodies a philosophy of purposeful minimalism with an emphasis on functionality. The Clip Point blade offers a classic, versatile shape that is effective for both everyday cutting and precise tasks. It is designed to provide a smooth, controlled cutting stroke with easy maneuverability for detailed work.

The Counter Point I therefore does not rely on extreme performance, but on a balanced combination of practicality, low weight, and comfortable handling.

Key benefits

  • Compact dimensions – ideal for everyday carry
  • AUS‑8A – good corrosion resistance and easy maintenance
  • Clip Point blade – versatile cutting properties
  • Textured Griv‑Ex™ – secure grip even in wet conditions
  • Ambidextrous clip – versatile carry options
  • Low weight – comfortable EDC without unnecessary burden

Possible limitations

  • The liner lock is not as robust as some other heavy-duty locking solutions
  • The small size may not suit those who prefer large folding knives

Maintenance and care

After use, dry and clean the blade, especially if it has come into contact with moisture or salt. Regularly check the cleanliness of the lock and opening mechanism — occasional cleaning will extend the life of the mechanism. Maintain the edge with light sharpening to preserve maximum sharpness and performance.

To maintain good 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.

Final verdict

The Cold Steel Counter Point I 10AB is a balanced and practical folding knife that offers low weight, comfortable handling, and versatile performance. Thanks to its solid construction, lightweight ergonomics, and well-chosen material, it is a tool that won’t let you down during everyday tasks or outdoor activities.
