The Cold Steel Trail Master represents the culmination of years of development, field testing and modification. Designed by Lynn C. Thompson, it was devised with the aim of becoming the best all-purpose Bowie Knife in the world. From its broad clip point and hand honed, razor sharp blade to its extra sturdy non-slip handle, the Trail Master is built to perform! Popular with hunters and survival experts as well as with military personnel who appreciate a larger fixed blade that can serve multiple roles in hard conditions, the Trail Master is a rugged Bowie that will be your trusted companion whatever your mission! This model features VG-1 San Mai III steel and is hand-made in limited edition in Japan.
Had one for several years, stuck and cleaned wild boars, quartered deer with no problems. Until my house was broke into and it was among the items stolen. Keep looking at different knives, nothing seems to compare to this knife!
I've had mine for years now, it's an awesome knife. I've used it for getting through deer breast bones on several hunting trips, I've never had an issue with the edge, no chipping. The handle is plenty "grippy" even with blood on it.
I've had my san mai trail master for over 10 years now it's seen hard use in the field and keeps on going. At first I was hesitant about the price but in the end with it's quality and durability, it was worth it. I love how thick the steel is, it's edge retention, and yes even its weight. It's a mans knife you can bet your life on.
This is the ultimate knife, no doubts about it. Tried and tested, it performs unbelievably well!
This knive is the best knife I've ever had! Three words beside beautiful, to define this knife: amazing, awesome, mind blowing!
