Very nice Vintage Cold Steel Master Tanto with San Mai III blade construction and brass accents. This is the Japan made knife and has Ventura CA on it as well. Overall condition is very good. This is the layered steel blade. The blade measures just over 5.5' and the overall is right at 11'. It was sent back to Cold Steel a couple weeks ago for a new Kraton handle as the original was soft in a couple places. It came back from them just yesterday. The new handle does have a touch of glue on it as can be seen in the pictures. I'm sure it can be removed, but I didn't want to try and possibly mess up the handle. They also gave it a quick polish and resharpened the edge as well. It is incredibly sharp. The brass pommel does have a few dings and the writing on the blade is light from the polishing (also shown in pictures).I'm not 100% sure of the age, but I would estimate it to be from the mid 80's. All in all, it's a very nice example of a vintage Cold Steel Tanto. Pictures are all of actual knife. It will come with it's original leather sheath and a brand new leather sheath.Price is $300.00 cash or would consider trades for just about anything
