I remember reading and thinking about that part of the Bible because I am the same kind of weirdo. I wish him all the success and there isn't anyone I would be happier to see get it.

Thanks for all of the toys you've brought to is over the years,we all appreciate it Lynn,can't wait to see what you come up with next,be well my friends...

I actually just recently ordered my first cold steel product, the thrail hawk. I can't wait to get to use it.

Gonna miss my little buddy so much now that he sold Cold Steel. He’s the heart and soul of this great company and it’s never gonna be the same. 😢

The first time, I want all knives on the table. Real pieces of art

Love Lynn when he’s on the show. Cold Steel makes some great products at many different price points.

The video editing (memes) in Blade HQ videos are truly a treasure and a joy. I genuinely thank you Blade HQ!

Lynn is the man. I got to grab one of those axes. They look sweet and I’m sure they will be at a good price.

Awesome video thanks

The second knife reminds me of my schrade needle. Which reminds me of a Fairbarn Sykes dagger. Which is why I bought it. Super cool design. Love it. Hope to see some serrations on the next cold steel versions of that dagger. People seem to forget that in the heat of combat, an attacker might not even notice he's been stabbed until the adrenaline dies off. A few serrations will add a bite to your dagger that can really let someone know they've been stabbed and force them to back off.

Lynn's passion brings me joy

I love Cold Steel! Great products at AMAZING prices!!!

The editing could not be better😍
