Cold Steel Rubber Training Knife - Military Classic Design

HannahHannah: The media could not be loaded.  The grip is amazing. It is weighted like a lighter knife though. Could be a bit heavier. The handle fits comfortably in your palm. It was a bit bigger than expected but still great. No complaints.

Jeremiah M: I got one of these to change up the partner training for our adults bjj class. It's not flimsy but feels that it can break or bend weird f you abuse it. It's great for hand fighting, defensive drills, grappling against the wall etc. Would recommend for any martial arts training

宮川　章太郎: 強度もしっかりしていて、サバゲ―用ダミーナイフのようにふにゃふにゃ曲がることはない。
自衛隊PXにも同製品が売っていたため、完全にトレーニング用ナイフだ。
強度があるということは、刺せばそこそこ痛いため、サバゲ―でのナイフアタックはしないほうがいい。

Tino: Exactly as I expected. This knife is not sharp, and it's got a decent weight to it (not lifelike but it ain't paperweight either) and a very good feel, and I do not at all doubt that it could be used not only to accidentally break bones but in the right hands it could even truly double in a pinch as a weapon for self-defense because it -hurts- getting jabbed with this thing. I don't know much about knife training yet, but this one feels right to me, the grip is far superior in my hand to the other I bought (the Leatherneck-SF trainer knife), it just seems to cause less strain to my large hands compared to the rounder handle of the other, as well as allow more grip strength. The angle of the blade to the handle also seems better designed for use. I don't believe that either of these blades is anything other than a perfect rubber make of the originals, they are both amazingly well made and I am not at all disappointed in the quality of Cold Steel's blades. I am only comparing personal preferences in design. This is a good product.

Rob H: I bought this knife for my 11-year-old son, who runs around in the woods like Rambo and carries it with him during Airsoft battles. Yesterday, he even attached it to the end of one of his cap gun rifles with duct tape as a bayonet. It's not a toy (which I'm saying mainly so the over-reacting types don't act like I'm letting my son run around in the backyard with a steak knife), but it's fine for kids 10+ to play with responsibly. It's not sharp, even at the point. It is heavy, so throwing it at somebody's head could hurt. If you have a kid that tends to be rough with other kids, it might not be a good item to put in their hands. However, if your kid is responsible enough to follow some basic safety rules, it's a great addition to any backyard battle gear. It's much less dangerous than running around with a pretend knife made out of a stick, which is what made me think of ordering the knife in the first place. The knife is very durable, realistic looking, and as I mentioned is as heavy as a real knife of this type. It's weatherproof (no metal) and doesn't seem to get nicks or tears even after a few months of heavy use. I haven't tried other knives of this type, but I'm very...

Laplace Transform: This could be one of the best value training knives on the market!

Design: This trainer is made to simulate the Cold Steel R1 Military Classic knife, as mentioned in the product description. It's a WWII-era design, and is based on the Randall Model 1. The R1 Classic (real knife) is 11 5/8" long with a 7" blade. The trainer is 11 1/2" long with a 6 3/4" blade. Nearly identical, the real knife is only slightly longer, similar to a traditional Bowie or USMC Ka-Bar. From an offensive training perspective, I prefer my trainer to be slightly shorter than what I carry.

Handle: The checkering on the handle is great, adds realism and definitely improves grip when hands are sweaty. The large hilt is accurate and stiff, adds so much to disarm drills and the overall appearance of being a real weapon.

Blade: The blade portion is stiff! Always wear proper personal protective equipment when using this, or any, training tool. You only get one set of eyes. There is some side-to-side flex but much less than with a lot of other rubber trainers. The blade portion is thick, and quite durable. Well rounded point. The heft isn't like that of a real blade, there is no metal shank or...
