Cold Steel - Paradox Series

Shop: Every detail of our Paradox is a testament to Cold Steel’s renowned craftsmanship. Its beautiful leaf shaped blade is hollow ground from imported Japanese AUS 8A Stainless steel and, due to the latest advances in heat treatment, it offers a thin, ultra keen edge that lasts and lasts. Its skeletonized handles are CNC machined from solid billets of 6061 aluminum and feature a hard-anodized coating to reduce scratches and oxidation. Not only is the Paradox good looking, but it’s incredibly safe. Strong, reliable, and virtually shock proof. It’s almost impossible for this knife to close on your precious fingers, even in the most extreme circumstances. The Paradox has the fit, finish and quality that one would expect from an expensive high-end custom Balisong or Butterfly knife but with one noticeable difference -- it cannot be opened with one hand! That’s right, the Cold Steel Paradox has all of the style and flair of a Butterfly knife, but without the legal restrictions that accompany it in many states or countries. An eye catching knife that is a joy to carry, our Paradox is available with 4 ½“ and 5 ½“ blades -- and is also available with handsome black Griv-Ex handles.
