Cold Steel FGX Ring Dagger, 3 1/2", Black

Best rust proof non metal plastic poker u can buy. 3D cast, unlike many of the single sided flat cast junk. TAKE IT IN THE SHOWER TO THE POOL & IN THE RAIN WHEN CAMPING HIKING OR "TRAVELING",😉 no rust or metal to trigger machines off. Super duper light weight and speedy to deploy when it kicks off in the yard. It’s better than a sharpened toothbrush shank in GP. Did I mention the circular hoop a.k.a. finger ring at the opposite end of the “Flat letter opener“? Let me tell you it is a game changer! You probably are only looking at non-metallic triggering self-defense plastics for one reason. “If you know, you know!“. The finger hoop not only allows you to carry & grip securely, - strike that "super-securely! In reverse grip and forward grip and when motor skills are paramount and Gooey warm red covers your hand, it becomes very hard to control and keep ahold of your “tool“. The finger ring allows complete control when motor skills are running in overdrive and helps maintain extreme purchase while negative forces“ or attempting to do harm. Please notice the side profile picture that shows a spear tip is out front of the “letter opener“. This will open your letters and your packages and “many other things“ with extreme prejudice.

Cold Steel seems to have improved this design to be stronger and with a better cutting and poking blade, just enough grip and then maybe a little longer than the old ones you used to get. I was actually surprised pleasantly that these are now useful for a car, purse or carry with any simple sheath.

Do NOT buy any knife with a nonmetallic blade for anything except one-time use in an emergency. This knife will both stab and cut quite effectively if it is fresh and hasn't been dulled by trying to cut or pierce things beforehand. The point and edge would both deteriorate rapidly with use, meaning hopefully your fight against an assailant will be over with in just a couple of minutes because beyond that you're going to be jabbing at them with a blunt piece of plastic. It should be more than enough for a single violent encounter if you reserve it only for that purpose. If you want to test it by cutting and jabbing various things, I'd buy two. Test with one and discard it once it is dulled. Keep the other pristine in case you need it.

It is very sturdy and sharp even though it's not metal. I should have paid more attention to the dimensions. It's big. Like bigger than you might want to try to conceal. It really should come with a sheath or have that option for a few dollars more. There isn't any good way to carry this otherwise without cutting or stabbing yourself.

As the days get shorter and the infamous time change occurs, we runners often find ourselves running in the dark. As a trail runner, nighttime runs can be fairly interesting. A good light is supremely important, but being back in the woods by myself, a decent weapon certainly makes me feel better. The weight of a regular knife is often an issue, with even a fairly light clip knife often turning into an aggravation and tugging down my waistband. This knife is an elegant solution. It is feather light, and being made of grivory, is rust-proof. I tuck it up under a sweatband on my wrist, so it rides on my forearm and is easily accessible. Admittedly, this is a last-ditch sort of implement, but it feels robust enough do a lot of damage, and is a vast improvement over a stick or a rock. It's my night running security blanket.

I love it. It is so fun. It’s so fun and cardboard in other stuff, but it can definitely cut you and it will break plastic. It’s very adorable and cold steel with the brand.

Great knife, shame it hasn't been readily available for over a month by my count - its made of grivory which is basically "the adamantium of plastic" in my eyes. Not something to re-use, more of a one time self defense tool or emergency backup piece of gear etc. You can't really re-sharpen a polymer (plastic essentially) knife lol

knife is sturdy and the edges are sharper than I thought they would be, I wouldn't want to be slashed with it. Bigger than I thought it would be about 9 1/4 inches overall. that isn't a deal breaker for me but it changes how I carry it. PS this knife is fully non metallic if that's what you want, just cut off the key-chain ring attached to the handle loop.
