Most of the super-lightweight knives in the new Nightshade™ series are detailed replicas of existing popular Cold Steel blades. Some are completely new creations.
The blades are made from Griv-Ex™, the latest in glass-reinforced plastic. Griv-Ex™ is even tougher than Zy-Ex™, the super-hard material used in Cold Steel's earlier models. Each blade is also UV and heat stabilized for weather resistance.
One of the features that sets these knives apart is their unique, deeply grooved handles. The tangs are directly overmolded with Kray-Ex™. The use of Kray-Ex™ in the design of knife handles is a Cold Steel innovation from the early 1980s. This material provides a premium, low-adhesion surface that is impervious to heat, cold or moisture. It will never rust, warp, crack or splinter, even under the harshest conditions.
