The War Head is Cold Steel's interpretation of an
early American blade prized throughout the Frontier for its versatility and
usefulness, in its day it was known as a “Trade Dag”. It had the advantage of
adaptability in the sense that you could add handle scales or wrap the tang
with rawhide or rope, or lash it to a hardwood stick to make it into a spear,
lance or war club. Cold
Steel's War Head is made out of 1055 Carbon steel with a tough spring temper
and, like the original, sports twin razor sharp edges and lashing notches. Unlike
the original, it comes with Polypropylene handle scales and a sturdy Cordura
nylon sheath so you can use and carry it with convenience. Because of its endless
versatility, convertibility, and just simple usefulness as a survival knife
and tool, it’s a tremendous value as well.
