Cold Steel President Lynn C. Thompson has championed the awesome power of the Tanto for over 30 years. A pioneer in modern Tanto design, Lynn developed lightning fast, versatile knives that were met with great critical acclaim particularly with the Military who appreciated their robust and reliable design coupled with superior fighting functionality.
Over the next three decades, Lynn has continued to develop a variety of Tantos, and the Warcraft Tanto series embodies his very latest ideas regarding this inspiring blade shape.
The Warcraft Tanto blades are noticeably thicker than many of the knives on the market today. With tough reinforced tips, elegantly curved cutting edges and sturdy one-piece construction, they are designed to soak up punishment while delivering unprecedented performance.
Made from the highest quality American CPM 3-V steel, each Warcraft Tanto's blade features a stout flat ground primary cutting edge and a chisel ground secondary blade bevel, both hand-honed to hair popping sharpness. The intersection of these two blade bevels (the Yakote) forms a wickedly effective secondary point that allows for a devastating snap cut.
The Warcraft is then DLC-coated (Diamond Like Coating) to make it highly rust and scratch resistant, while also reducing glare and minimizing friction.
The taper-ground, thick full tang is encased in 3D-machined textured and ergonomic USA G-10 scales, making the Warcraft series comfortable and secure in hand, and equally at home as a reliable workhorse or life-saving combat knife.
Available in three sizes, the Warcraft is one of the highest quality premium tactical fixed blade in the world today.
CPM 3-V Steel
American CPM 3-V takes an extremely fine edge that is highly chip-resistant, and in recent years it has proved very popular with custom knife makers. Though costly, this modern tool steel is astonishingly tough and exceptionally wear-resistant. It is a fine-grained powdered steel, with a very uniform microstructure giving it excellent impact resistance and fine edge holding performance, and making it perfectly suited for larger blades where extreme toughness is required.
