## Description

COLD STEEL SUPER EDGE KNIFE CS-42SS: The Super Edge neck knife is a Japanese made hard-working sheath knife in the very smallest package available. This rugged .8oz workhorse can cut through the tough materials that would make a bigger knife "choke". The 2" serrated blade is made from AUS8 stainless steel and will keep an edge and stay free of corrosion over the long haul. Its diminutive 4.5" overall length and feather-light Secure-Ex sheath make it a natural for attachment to a key ring, zipper pull, "D" ring, or belt loop. It's so light and comfortable to carry you'll never notice it when it's casually looped around your neck, conveniently laced to your shoe, or cunningly pinned inside the crown of your hat. SPECS: - Weight: 0.8oz; - Blade Thickness: 2mm; - Blade Length: 2"; - Blade Steel: Japanese AUS8A Stainless; - Handle Length/Material: 2-5/16" Kray-Ex; - Overall Length: 4-5/16"; - Additional Features: Secure-Ex Sheath; - Knife Type: Fixed Blade; - Length Range: 1-3 in; - Steel Family: AUS; - Blade Shape: Drop Point.

Review: 5 Star Knife at this price... - I bought this knife with the intention to take the key ring off and put a neck chain on to wear as a neck knife. This knife is a suitable size for wearing on the neck and hides well under a shirt. I think it is a bit big for my preference to use as a key chain knife in the pocket, however the key ring would be very well suited to attaching to a back pack strap for outdoor excursions. I am not generally a fan of serrated edge blades, but this blade is sharp and the serrations are very aggressive. It will not slow slice through paper well, but a good flick of the wrist produces a very clean slice of paper. The front edge, approx 1/4 inch is not serrated, but is a single bevel and works well for scoring. The blade is made in Japan, although this may not mean much, at least it is probably better quality than a lot of blades made else where (ie china, taiwan, etc.). This blade is well worth the desertcart price ($18.02 when I bought it) and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to a friend who wants a good quality utility knife that you can be rough on. I would not use this as a defensive blade except in dire circumstances as it is just too small. I would not recommend this blade at the MSRP of $29.99, though I do feel that Cold Steel makes quality products. At the price I paid I rate this a 5 star knife as you will find it difficult to get anything better.
Review: First issued when I worked in a Nuclear Power Plant! Identical knife! Never got dull!! - I was issued one of these when I worked in a nuclear power plant, it stayed sharp throughout the stint! Handy to have around all the time! I decided to pick up another one, 10 years later, I hoped it remained the same. It did! It's small, easily carried on a plastic chain (so if you're around moving equipment, the chain breaks, and you don't get carried into the equipment! A great little neck knife!! Approved by RadCon!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Did this replace the mini pal made by cold steel? I'd like to order another one...**
A: No. This is a replacement for the Cold Steel "Ready Edge", which is no longer made. Very similar knife, different sheath.

**Q: does the sheath have a lock?  There is an older version of this knife that does.**
A: It does click and lock in the sheath if that's what you mean

**Q: Can anyone recommend a diamond file that will properly fit the serrations on this small knife?**
A: Get a triangular ceramic stone, such as from Spyderco,and this will work nicely.

**Q: Does anybody know of a similar size, or even smaller sized fixed blade that approaches this quality, etc?**
A: Look on Bladehq they have a large selection of quality knives.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good all around!
*by S***T on January 12, 2013*

I needed a small general-use blade for times when it's too inconvenient to lug my Leatherman around. I chose this over some other small blades, and so far am delighted with my choice. Like all Cold Steel blades, the quality is excellent. The checkered Kraton grip is comfortable to hold and grips well. This is about a 2.5 finger grip for me, but the handle shape and composition makes it easy for me to hold and use. They seem to have put some thought into safety. The grip is tapered: wider at the pommel, narrower just under the guard, which (for me) makes it easier to hold on to. The guard is comparatively wide, and gives me enough assurance that my fingers will not slip up onto the blade. I turned down other small blades because they did not have the kind of handle the Super Edge has. The Secure-Ex sheath is good quality, and looks like it can take a beating. When you insert the knife it snaps around the guard and holds it tight. You have to give it a definite and deliberate tug to remove it. Again, a good safety feature, and one that should last a while. In spite of the above, the Super Edge is light. So light I can hardly tell that I'm holding it, in fact. And, finally, the blade is *sharp*! Out of the box it could shave the hair off my arm without any difficulty. It zips cleanly and easily through cardboard, paper, plastic packaging, and an assortment of fruits and vegetables. Overall, I really don't have any complaints. It's light, sharp, easy to hold and use, and has (in my opinion) good safety features. Based on my experience, this would make a good all around take-anywhere blade for daily use, or a good addition to the emergency kit, tackle box, etc.
