For almost a decade, Cold Steel® offered a wicked-looking little boot knife called the Culloden®. It was based on the traditional Scottish 'black knife' or 'Skean Dhu' as it is more commonly called in Gaelic, the ancient language of Scotland.

The Caledonian Edge™ features a number of modern variations and refinements over its predecessor. The blade is made of a virtually unbreakable San Mai III® construction and, like the original Skean Dhu, features a thin, sharp point, as sharp as the proverbial needle. 

The traditional tang seen on the Skean Dhu of yesteryear has been retained and provides an aggressive, non-slip platform for the thumb and forefinger, allowing for better control when using the blade to cut or pierce.

The handle of the Caledonian Edge™ has a profile that hugs the palm of the hand and a relatively thin cross-section that enhances its qualities. It is flat enough not to roll or twist in the palm of the hand, yet comfortable enough to accommodate a wide range of grip styles. A perfect blend of strength and beauty, it features a mirror-polished black Micarta superstructure and titanium bolsters.ne handed opening.

FROM COLD STEEL WEBSITE

The Oyabun Limited is a high-end collector's version of our Oyabun. It shares features in common with the standard model in terms of functionality and appearance, but differs greatly in the materials used in its construction. It also has the value of being a collectible keepsake as only 3500 were produced. Each one is serially numbered and each box will be personally signed by Lynn C. Thompson himself! The blade's fine S35VN steel is an expensive powder coated steel that is heat treated to Rc 59-60 and hardened to sub zero. It has been given an attractive two-tone finish on the blade planes and a high satin polish on the blade bevels. Notably, the handle frame is milled from two solid billets of 6061 aluminum to create the bolster and pommel, which has been given a beautiful mirror polished finish. The handle also features CNC-machined G-10 plates with a diamond checkerboard pattern for a good, secure grip.

"I like flashy knives and when they are limited collector's editions with serial numbers made from high quality materials, I like them even more. That's why I think you'll like our Oyabun Limited. Only 3500 pieces will be made. All individually serial numbered with 6061 aluminum frames, CNC machined handles that are completely checkered just like my much original and a two-tone polished S35VN blade! And best of all, all this splendor and high performance is backed by our state-of-the-art leaf spring lock and secondary safety, so you know it won't bend on your hand. Now you have a knife that is worth every penny asked (just compare) and has tremendous appeal/appreciation from collectors!!!" - Lynn Thompson

This knife blade is convex on both sides in the tradition of the highly praised Japanese sword. This shape is both sharp and strong, and can still slice cleanly through a sheet of paper even after the punishment of chopping and cutting through dried bamboo. Using this special blade shape is an excellent way of allowing an edge to be thick without sacrificing any of its sharpness. This knife is of preeminent sharpness. This is a durable knife with strong cutting capabilities that will last for a long time. Even when used for rigorous cutting, the blade will not bite or catch thanks to its convex shape. Other knives will often bite or catch, and may acquire nicks if pulled out suddenly.
