The Cold Steel Lynn Thompson Signature Spartan, featuring a signature on the front face of the blade and a serial number of authenticity. The Spartans super-sharp serrated blade is made from S35VN Steel, and was designed to echo the aesthetics and cutting performance of the world famous Kukri, with its recurved edge, big belly and sharp point. The blade of this Cold Steel knife has the patented "Demko" thumb plate for ambidextrous one handed opening, as well as open on withdrawal. The grooved OD Green G-10 handle has a pronounced choil and pommel curve for secure grip, steel liners for strength, the Tri-Ad lock and a lanyard hole. It’s heavily contoured for comfort and features irregular fluting and a heavily textured surface finish for an exceptionally effective grip.
