Cold Steel Leatherneck American Tanto 7" Fixed Blade – Black Powder Coated

Cold Steel Leatherneck American Tanto Fixed Blade Knife – 7" D2 Tool Steel

The Cold Steel Leatherneck American Tanto is a mission-ready fixed blade designed for military personnel, law enforcement, survivalists, and outdoor enthusiasts who demand uncompromising strength and reliability. Built around Cold Steel's legendary American Tanto blade profile, this heavy-duty knife delivers exceptional piercing capability, outstanding durability, and dependable performance in the harshest environments.

The 7-inch American Tanto blade is precision crafted from premium German D2 tool steel, offering superior edge retention, wear resistance, and toughness for demanding field use. A durable black powder-coated finish helps protect the blade from corrosion while reducing glare during tactical and outdoor operations. The reinforced Tanto point provides exceptional tip strength, making it ideal for piercing and heavy-duty cutting tasks.

A solid double quillon steel guard helps prevent the hand from sliding forward during hard use, while the deeply textured Griv-Ex™ handle completely surrounds the extra-wide full tang to provide outstanding grip, comfort, and control in wet, cold, or adverse conditions.

The handle is finished with a machined steel butt cap, allowing the knife to serve as an emergency striking or hammering tool when needed. For secure transport, the Leatherneck includes a rugged Secure-Ex® military-style sheath with a fully detachable, ambidextrous belt loop for versatile carry options.
