Review: Amazing quality and engineering. - I brought this knife with me for a week long vacation to Dominican Republic. I used it to cut fish and coconuts and took it into the water with me at 11 beaches. It WILL oxidize in water. However after arriving home I used a bit of vinegar and a dish scrubbing pad and it looks almost as good as new. It's very easily concealable, very sharp, very egronomic. As for the grip being "too textured" according to some reviewers, I didn't find that to be the case at all. I found the texture to be perfect as it gave me excellent grip. The blade has managed to hold it's sharpness, even as I used it to dig in sand under-water that had shells and rocks. The steel isn't as "stainless" as I would hope, but it's a small trade-off considering the excellent durability of the blade. I really did abuse the knife quite a few times, and the blade didn't chip or dull. My only complaint is that the knife is hard to unsheathe, but I corrected this by leaving it sitting for a few datys with a coin tucked under the plastic where the finger notch is. I highly recommend this blade, as despite it's small handle, it's easy to maintain a strong grip, and I'd feel confident to rely on this knife in both combat and survival situations.
Review: Cold Steel Mini Tac Tanto blade....awesome - I am a knife fanatic and this little knife has won my heart. I have been carrying high dollar limited edition benchmades for years and I decided I wanted to take better care of my more collectible knives. Cold steel has made a winner here. They use great blade material and designs with their products. The tanto blade style is very useful. The sheath is great too, I have it lashed to my belt in the middle of my back and it holds the knife in place nicely, I never have to worry about it falling out. The best part of this knife is the handle design, it is super comfortable and gives the user excellent grip. For the price this knife is a steal, I actually just bought another mini tac in another blade stlye. Oh yeah....this thing is sharp This is my first fixed blade that I have used for daily carry and have found it even more convenient than a tactical folder. You can draw it quick and it stays completely concealed. Putting it back in the sheath requires two hands with it placed laterally in the center of my back on my belt, but I would rather have a tight sheath than a loose one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ good blade
*by M***X on October 8, 2013*

I love knives and am a fan of Cold Steel products even though many of their products are from China but this particular piece is from Taiwan. Is that better who knows? But this little blade is very good quality the handle has this really nice textured feel to it and good finger grooves. Not sure how someone with big hands will like it since it is quite small. The blade comes pretty sharp, the chain is decent, im 5'5 and the knife around my neck hangs to about my navel. I'd say buy it but remember this knife is only for opening boxes and last ditch self defense. Gave four stars only because the knife feels a tad bit heavy on my neck ( Im 160 lbs) but might be from the thin chain putting more pressure and digs into your skin.
