i have quite a few. they're for the most part one of the better affordable mass produced knives. some are too sci-fi looking and weird shaped, but there are some good straightforward patterns to be had from them. some of the ones i liked the best are no longer produced, but i wouldn't pay any extra to buy one as if it were a collectors item or something.

I have 3 Cold steel knives. All seem good quality. I use OSS model to hog hunt. It holds an edge well even through tough boar hide. Two other guys I hunt with also use Cold steel knives. One is a trail master. They also use Marbles & k-bar. Marbles is a little more money, & k-bar little less. My OSS is @ 10yrs old cold forged , not sure if they still make them the same. If you pay much more you can get a custom knife form one of the makers on here.

I'm not really into most of the ninja stuff they sell, but I can say that they have excellent customer service. I carried one of their pocket knives daily for over ten years. One day the pocket clip hung on something and broke, and I sent it in for repair. Cold Steel replaced the entire knife at no cost to me.

I have two roach bellies and a finn bear. All three are great, hold an edge and sharp. Can't beat them for $12 each on midway.

No. I had a lock blade folding knife with a pocket clip--I don't know what the model name was but it didn't look like the one that came up when I googled kudu.

I have a dozen or so, I find them to be the knives I always gravitate back to when I am packing for a trip. Very tough, very reliable.
