Finn Wolf
Our Finn Bear has become quite popular with customers. Cold Steel President, Lynn C. Thompson spent over 30 days in the Australian outback hunting Wild Boar, Asian Buffalo, Red Deer, Elk and Sanbar Deer, using the Finn Bear on a daily basis and though it was used brutally, it performed beyond Lynn's wildest expectations. Especially for a knife that costs less than twenty bucks!
This year, Cold Steel is happy to introduce a new Finnish styled blade they call the Finn Wolf. It has a slightly more tactical, aggressive quality. Like the Finn Bear, it's modestly priced. It features a slightly thicker 3mm, 4116 Krupp stainless blade that provides a stiffer spine to support the blade's narrow profile and sharp, slightly "clipped" point. These attributes, combined with its thin, keen hollow ground edge make it ideal for field dressing, skinning, utility chores and even the rigors of survival or combat use.
The Finn Wolf's handle is shaped and contoured for comfort and security. Its sweeping curves give it an attractive visual appeal and provide a steady grip for the hand. It can be used edge up or down and in both forward or reverse grips and offers terrific dexterity and comfort in any position you can imagine.
The Finn Wolf comes with a traditional pouch style black Cordura sheath. Worn on the belt or tucked into a pack, it's ready for your next adventure.

More about 4116 Krupp Stainless steel:
4116 is a fine grained, stainless steel made by ThyssenKrupp in Germany and is used for hygienic applications (medical devices and the pharmaceutical industry) and food processing which make it a superb material for kitchen cutlery. The balance of carbon and chromium content give it a high degree of corrosion resistance and also impressive physical characteristics of strength and edge holding. Edge retention in actual cutting tests exceeded blades made of the 420 and 440 series of stainless steels. Other alloying elements contribute to grain refinement which increase blade strength and edge toughness and also allow for a finer, sharper edge.
