Ultimate Survival Knife? Could Well Be.....
I bought this Recon Scout a few weeks ago now and it's a beast. Almost a pound of high quality steel in the form of a Bowie Knife. A Cold Steel classic that's been around for over 20 years now. Originally made from Carbon V in America through Japan and China with various other steel types. Now made in Taiwan with 2 steel variants available. This one made from 52100 and is great camp knife, survival knife and a good bushcrafting knife as well. It's definitely going in my rucksack for my next wilderness camping trip to the Middle of Nowhere in the Scottish Highlands. If you're hesitant about getting one, watch GideonsTactical's review. Aaron puts it through it's paces and it stands up extremely well. I saw the review a couple of weeks after I bought mine. This 52100 version will be one of my main camping knives from now on. I do want the CPM 3V variant as well but that will be going straight in my display cabinet ! ! ! P.S. Yes I do know where the Middle of Nowhere is but I'm not sharing the postcode ??
