Yes, pretty much. Cold Steel did a high end release of the Black Talon a extremely nice 1st edition. Then they came out with the Black Talon II. A very reasonable priced self defense knife. I have one of these as well, I don't carry it that often because it's strictly a self defense knife. It's...
I have a lot of Cold Steel knives, but I bought this one about 20 years ago. I'm sure that I paid at least $250 bucks for it. I never carried it, or cut anything with it. I think they are going for maybe $500 to $600 bucks on the secondary market.
This is a bad ass knife.
It looks like a bigger POS than the orginal Chevy Bolt... I bet you a dollar they are going to randomly catch fire just like the previous generation Bolt.
