Review: Perfect Lite Weight and Petite Neck Knife - Cold Steel designed this for use with hunters and fishers looking to process their game, and should excel in that role assuming the game is small enough. The skeletonized design, small blade dimensions, and finger ring make it clear this knife is generally meant for fine and precise work. While I am a hunter I bought this knife for the primary purpose of finding a very lite weight and diminutive neck knife that I really wouldn't feel during my day, and this has definitely fit that bill. At 0.8 ounces the Bird and Trout is two and half times lighter than my ESEE Izula-B neck knife, and over three times lighter than my Cold Steel Mini Tac neck knife. The Secure-Ex sheath is also diminutive and like all the Secure-Ex's I have used locks the knife up tight and I have no fear the knife will fall out, while also allowing easy withdrawal when I need the knife. One final thing to say; I am not sure what the blade steel used is? The manufacturer website lists it as AUS-8, but other places list it as AUS-6.
Review: Icy cold - Cold steel needs no reviews as the name speaks for itself and stands for a good quality knife. The price was right, was exactly what I wanted, feels good in my hand, and is very sharp. I have no regrets or complaints on this purchase and I would buy again and will if I lose it or someone steals it cause they bought some cheap a** pos and like this better.

Taiwan made. Lightweight. Sheath feels like it'll last about 20 deployments before it breaks. Knife: pretty okay. Sheath: trash.
