The Cold Steel Urban Edge CS43XLSS delivers reliable cutting performance in a compact fixed blade design built for everyday carry and tactical applications. This 2.5-inch blade combines Japanese AUS-8A stainless steel with practical serrations for versatile cutting tasks.
What Makes This Different
The Urban Edge stands out with its stone-washed AUS-8A blade that maintains edge retention while resisting corrosion in harsh environments. Unlike folder knives that can fail under stress, this fixed blade construction eliminates mechanical failure points.
