Cold Steel Tai Pan VG-10 San Mai Fixed Blade

The Cold Steel Tai Pan VG-10 San Mai is a masterfully engineered fixed blade that blends speed, precision, and strength into a striking Tanto-style design. Inspired by its serpent namesake, the Tai Pan offers swift handling and powerful performance, making it a versatile tool for outdoor enthusiasts and collectors alike. Designed by Lynn C. Thompson, this dagger-style knife maximizes effectiveness while minimizing common weaknesses found in traditional daggers.

Unlike typical daggers with fragile points, the Tai Pan features a reinforced spear point that is wide and thick enough to resist breaking while still offering deep, clean penetration. The 7.5" VG-10 San Mai® laminated steel blade ensures lasting sharpness and dependable edge retention, while the 5.5" Kray-Ex™ handle provides a secure, ergonomic grip. Complete with a Secure-Ex® sheath for safe carry, the Tai Pan is a high-performance fixed blade ready for demanding outdoor tasks or collection display.
