Cold Steel’s Hide Out was designed as a small, inexpensive and super-functional neck knife. The resulting blade is a true featherweight, weighing a meager 1.9oz! Its high satin polished, double-edged Japanese AUS 8A blade is Scandi ground, which makes it very sharp and also very stiff, allowing for a strong and durable tip. Its full tang is encapsulated in a weather proof Kray-Ex handle that has been designed to be very thin and flat.
