TW 436 - Is Your Knife Dull? Win Cold Steel’s Razor-Sharp Legends!

On this exciting episode of Tennessee WildCast, we dive into the world of outdoor adventure, spotlighting GSM Outdoors and their renowned Cold Steel brand. Joined by Keith Beam, Director of Product Innovation at GSM, this episode explores the legacy and craftsmanship of Cold Steel knives, celebrated for their durability and versatility. Keith, a seasoned innovator with a background in archery and multiple patents, shares the fascinating story of how he became the face of Cold Steel after GSM’s acquisition. His engaging anecdotes, from receiving death threats over a promotional video to earning the nickname “Stick Man,” highlight the passionate global fanbase of Cold Steel, spanning from the U.S. to Ukraine and Russia. 

The episode showcases Cold Steel’s diverse knife lineup, from tactical self-defense tools like the Spartan with its robust Triad lock system to the American-made Republic, featuring a hidden Declaration of Independence etched on its tang. Keith emphasizes the brand’s commitment to authenticity, with knives like the Filipino bolo crafted in their country of origin, blending historical accuracy with modern functionality. The Rajah III, with its Kukri-style blade, is praised for its precision in hunting, perfect for skinning without damaging hides. These knives aren’t just tools—they’re built to handle everything from cutting rope to surviving the “zombie apocalypse,” as Keith humorously notes. Listeners are treated to a giveaway of premium Cold Steel knives, including the Republic and Spartan, with a chance to win by subscribing, liking, sharing, and tagging friends on TWRA’s social platforms.
