Cold Steel Arkansas Toothpick Fixed Blade 13.25in Dagger Knife

Step into the 19th century with Cold Steel’s Arkansas Toothpick, a knife that’s as striking as it is historically grounded. A formidable competitor to the Bowie knife, the Arkansas Toothpick traces its roots back to the lowlands of Arkansas and the Mississippi Delta, where its formidable design and rugged reputation became legendary. The name “Arkansas Toothpick” originated as an ironic nod to the rough and ready culture of that era; stories tell of men wielding these hefty knives for everything from self-defense to day-to-day tasks. Much like the Bowie, this knife’s reputation was larger than life. Designed with a keen double edge, a sharp spear point, and a decorative guard, the Arkansas Toothpick embodies both practicality and flair, with designs that range from simple to elaborate.

Cold Steel’s Arkansas Toothpick embraces this heritage with its 13.25-inch 1055 high-carbon steel blade. Crafted for serious use, the double-edged spear point provides remarkable penetration and cutting potential. The blade’s 0.23-inch thickness and full-tang construction ensure durability, while the high-carbon steel provides the strength needed to hold up under heavy use. Whether you’re using it outdoors or adding it to a collection, the Arkansas Toothpick’s blade is built to last and perform under demanding conditions.

The handle, made of rich Malaysian sal wood, balances rugged beauty with solid handling. With a texture that offers grip and comfort, the handle is designed for confident control. Adding a touch of distinction, the silver pommel features an intricately carved alligator motif, calling back to the era’s love for detailed craftsmanship. The double quillon guard, another hallmark of traditional toothpick knives, adds a layer of protection, keeping your hand safe during use and lending a classic look.

Cold Steel completes the Arkansas Toothpick with a finely crafted leather scabbard, accented by decorative silver fittings. Not only does the scabbard secure the blade for transport and storage, but its design also elevates the knife’s overall aesthetic, making this piece suitable for display or as a reliable companion in the field.

The Arkansas Toothpick from Cold Steel blends history with functionality with a classic fixed blade made for those who appreciate a knife as reliable as it is distinguished.
