Whoops. Didn't finish my post.I actually made quite a few knife handles for cold
I made a few of the handles for cold steel knives. Not the fixed blades but for the automatic folders. This was back around 2000 for a machine shop I was at. Only owned one cold steel knife, it was a large fillet fish knife . Wasn't very impressed with it. To thick of a spine not enough flex to really skin the fish. Other than that have no experience with them as a hunting knife.
