Cold Steel FGX Tai Pan Life

Most of the lightweight knives of Cold Steel’s new Nightshade series are detailed reproductions of existing Cold Steel favorites, while some are brand new designs.

Made from Griv-Ex, the latest in fiberglass-reinforced plastic, and stronger than even the super tough Zy-Ex used by Cold Steel in earlier models, they are UV- and heat-stabilized, which make them impervious to the elements.

One of the most unique features of these knives is their handles: They are made from deeply checkered Kray-Ex that has been molded directly to the blade tangs. The use of Kray-Ex in knife handles is a Cold Steel innovation that dates back to the early 1980’s. It offers a superior, slightly tacky gripping surface that remains unaffected by heat, cold, or moisture. It neverrusts, warps, cracks or splits, even in the most extreme environments.
