    I’m super excited for this model. I really wanted one just a bit smaller than the 20.5, had no idea it was in the works and stopped by their booth at Bladeshow to ask whether they might ever do something like that. Imagine my surprise!Andrew was there and took lots of time to show me all the Cub variations and seemed genuinely interested to hear that I was hoping for something in that size. I hope it’s a huge hit for you and them. Can’t wait.

    Really excited for the Shark cub! Will be hard to decide which blade shape to go with! One thing tho, it should be called the shark pup! That’s what baby sharks are called - not cubs

    Put me down for a slicer! Love the 2.5" blade length, important if you travel for places like Korea where that's about the legal limit.

    I would like an S35, S45, 20CV or Magnacut standard with Ti handles and a bit bigger than the current 20.5. Hoping this happens and will buy when it does.

    In a world where tons of makers slap 20CV on stuff that doesn’t make sense, it’s actually a great choice of steel for this type of knife.

    It's a titanium folder with 20CV, how does this make more sense than anything else?

    @@Knivess0 For one, with a smaller blade length the forces on a smaller blade is less thus toughness is less critical. Just from a smaller "utilitarian" to larger "tactical and abused" shift alot of the m390/20cv in a large tactical blade is pointless. Those will either get used ONCE to dispatch a person or get used roughly where that lack of toughness is at a detriment. Really confounding to see a large folder or fixed blade with m390/20cv but advertised as some tactical or survival or whatever other silliness associated with it. One such is a beautifully executed persian design, the microtech sbk, which makes zero sense. That tip will snap off in the blink of an eye. What purpose does that high edge retention steel have on a fighting knife, or on an outdoors knife where you might use it for stuff like batoning. Are you gonna break down boxes with that? Carpeting? Cut rope at a dock? Nah. Just absolutely pointless (or will soon be anyways).

    @@Knivess0 20CV's appeal is it's potential for edge retention and stainlessness, but it can also be fairly chippy. On a smaller, thin knife, you're likely prioritizing cutting performance over hard durability since you're not getting much toughness out of thin blade anyway. For larger thicker knives, durability is likely some factor in choosing it and getting a brittle steel takes away from that. You can get similar cutting performance and more toughness out of tool steels if you're willing to give up some stainlessness.

    Oh wow they made it even smaller😂. The Ad20.5 was small enough. But they actually made it smaller😂😂. Instead of making the Ad20 that everyone wanted available. Crazy! But isn't this shark cub thingy a 3 finger knife for everyone other then the boy scouts??😂 Don't tell me the blade is even thinner then on the ad20.5😂. Amazing. Now you really don't need a strong locking mechanisme anymore with such a thin and fragil blade that breaks easily. I'm just shocked. And Demko was designing all these big Cold Steel knives. Wow true blasphemy. Seems the man (AD) had an accident between his legs and lost some important parts
