Cold Steel San Mai® Magnum Tanto XII Fixed Blade Knife

The Ultimate Expression of the Legendary Tanto.

The Cold Steel San Mai® Magnum Tanto XII is the largest and most imposing member of Cold Steel's iconic Tanto family. Representing over 30 years of refinement, it combines traditional Japanese-inspired blade geometry with premium materials and exceptional craftsmanship to create a truly outstanding fixed blade.

Its formidable 12-inch blade is forged from VG-10 San Mai® laminated stainless steel, delivering outstanding edge retention, exceptional toughness and excellent corrosion resistance. The legendary angular Tanto profile provides tremendous tip strength, while the hollow-ground satin-finished bevels and contrasting line-grain blade flats showcase the meticulous grinding and unmistakable styling that have made the Magnum Tanto series world famous.

The ergonomically contoured Kray-Ex® handle features a flattened oval profile with a textured surface that provides a secure, comfortable grip while resisting rolling or twisting during demanding cutting tasks. Resistant to weather, cracking and wear, it offers dependable performance in virtually any environment. Completing the knife is a tapered solid steel pommel, adding strength, balance and a premium finishing touch.

A heavy-duty Secure-Ex™ sheath is included to provide reliable protection and convenient transport, ensuring this impressive knife is safely stored when not on display or in use.

Combining legendary Cold Steel engineering with premium Japanese steel and commanding proportions, the San Mai® Magnum Tanto XII is an exceptional collector's piece and one of the finest production Tanto knives available.
