Small, compact, a perfect boot knife. Blade is robust and sharp right out of the box. Sheath is kydex and fits and holds knife securely. I think it's a little too big for a neck knife but it will make a great boot knife. You simply cannot go wrong with a Cold Steel knife. Review: Worth more than I paid for it. - Fantastic knife and made of 4116 German steel. An excellent steel for a knife like this and made in Taiwan when Lynn Thompson owned the Cold Steel company. Better quality control back in those days. Have cleaned large fish, large and small game. It cuts paracord, heavy rope, fishing line etc. An ideal option for survival and self-defense. It's worth more than I paid for it, and at this price, am getting another one. ## Features - PRECISION & POWER - Cold Steel Bowie Spike series neck knives are slim, light and super-tough; The razor sharp, zero ground blades of these knives are complemented by heavily scalloped, textured handle scales that offer a comfortable and secure grip - UNRIVALED GRIP - The Spike's ergonomic handles feature Integral quillons that provide a safe stop for index finger and thumb, while deeply textured and sculpted Griv-Ex provides excellent positive traction even when your hands are cold, wet and slippery - DURABLE & VERSATILE - This multi-purpose knife offers all the strength of a one-piece solid German 4116 Stainless Cryo Quenched steel construction while still being light; Whether in the field, forest, or combat, Spike knives are built for every need - SECURE-EX SHEATH - Equipped with a tough Secure-Ex sheath, the Cold Steel Spike hunting knife stays safely in place while being easy to carry anywhere; The Secure-Ex sheath offers reliable retention without compromising speed of access or deployment - SPECS - Weight: 2.3oz; Blade Thickness: 3mm; Blade Length: 4"; Blade Steel: German 4116 Stainless Cryo Quenched; Handle Length/Material: 4" Griv-Ex; Overall Length: 8"; Knife Type: Fixed Blade; Length Range: 3-5 in; Blade Shape: Clip Point ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01HA9YBPI | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #181,111 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #258 in Camping Fixed-Blade Knives | | Blade Edge | Flat | | Blade Length | 0.5 Inches | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Clip Point | | Blade Type | Fixed Blade | | Brand | Cold Steel | | Brand Name | Cold Steel | | Color | Stainless Steel,Steel | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 313 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00705442010104 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Stainless Steel | | Included Components | Sheath | | Is Product Cordless | Yes | | Item Length | 8 Inches | | Item Shape | Rectangular | | Item Type Name | FIXED KNIFE | | Item Weight | 2.3 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Cold Steel | | Model Name | Bowie Spike Durable Lightweight German 4116 Stainless Steel 4" Fixed Blade | | Model Number | CS53NBS | | Part Number | 53NBS | | Power Source | hand_powered | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Bushcrafting, Camping, Hunting, Skinning | | Reusability | Reusable | | Size | 0.5" | | Special Feature | Manual | | Special Features | Manual | | Style | Modern | | UPC | 705442010104 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Knives & Blades: We stand behind our products 100%.

Tight and secure enough to be worn as a neck knife?** A: It’s secure enough in the sheath, but I would not recommend wearing any knife around your neck. That’s just a fad, and cause you serious injury. **Q: Does the sheath have a clip for a belt?** A: No. It does have some slots for a belt if it is narrow enough. **Q: Is it full tang?** A: Yes it is full tang. Highly recommend! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent *by W***S on February 6, 2026* Another quality blade from COLD STEEL! Small, compact, a perfect boot knife.

I love mine. I knew what to expect, and that's what I got: High quality, great product for the price, and materials that are adequate while not busting the bank with over-the-top-has-to-be-perfect expectations. This is an excellent and easily concealable (boot, IWB, belt, edc, etc.) knife. If you actually use your knives that you carry, you will not be disappointed with this little gem from Cold Steel. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cold Steel Bowie Spike Durable Lightweight German 4116 Stainless Steel 4" Fixed Blade Tactical Outdoor Hunting Neck Knife, Textured Griv-Ex Handle, Secure-Ex Sheath - Cold Steel C-Clip Small (Pack of 2), Black - COLD STEEL Tanto Spike Durable Lightweight German 4116 Stainless Steel 4" Fixed Blade Tactical Outdoor Hunting Neck Knife, Textured Griv-Ex Handle, Secure-Ex Sheath --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/78634935-cold-steel-bowie-spike](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/78634935-cold-steel-bowie-spike) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
