Cold Steel 92DD Delta Dart Kubotan. Black as a moonless night, silent as the grave... these are the qualities that make up our new lightweight Nightshade™ series. Most are detailed reproductions of existing Cold Steel favorites and some are new designs representing the newest trends in high-tech, covert construction. Made from Grivory™-- the latest in fiberglass reinforced plastic, and stronger than even the super tough Zy-Ex we have used in earlier models-- they are UV and heat stabilized, making them impervious to the elements.
One of the most unique features of these knives is their handles. They are made from deeply checkered Kraton that has been molded directly to the blade tangs. The use of Kraton in knife handles is a Cold Steel innovation that dates back to the early 1980's. It has been readily copied by most of our competitors because it offers a superior, slightly tacky gripping surface that is unaffected by heat, cold, or moisture. It never rusts, warps, cracks or splits even in the most extreme environments.
Our Nightshade™ knives are light enough to be tied, tucked, or taped just about anywhere on one's person. And, since they are impervious to heat, cold, moisture and extreme weather they are a natural to hide both inside and outside your house. They can be hidden virtually everywhere from the hedges and flowerpots in your yard, to the refrigerator, bookshelves, and closets in your house. Keep one in every room of the house, from the laundry room to the bathroom shower! With violent home invasions on the rise a strategically placed Nightshade™ could save the day, and even your life.
The Cold Steel Delta Dart kubaton is 8 inches long and 1/2 inch in diameter, yet it weighs only 7/10 of an ounce! The comfortable handle is knurled for a positive grip and the butt is smooth and rounded, so it's perfect for both thumb and palm reinforced grip positions.
Like the CAT Tanto, the Cold Steel Delta Dart is made from extremely hard 43% glass-filled Zytel. This is the highest glass to nylon ratio available so the point is tougher, lasts longer and is easily re-sharpened with a nail file.
The Cold Steel Delta Dart can be taped, tied or tucked away just about anywhere, and since it's also invisible to metal screening devices, it can easily pass unnoticed through security checks. To complement its covert nature, the Cold Steel Delta Dart is totally "Sterile" with no markings to indicate its point of origin. Not only is the Delta Dart and excellent self-defense spike but it also does double-duty with our military personel as a lightweight, strong and inexpensive mine probe.
An optional, completely non-metallic, SecureEx neck sheath with bead chain is available for the Cold Steel Delta Dart.
Cold Steel Delta Dart. Non-Metalic, Zytel, 3.5 inch blade, .5 inch Diameter, 7.87 inches overall, .7 oz.

Concerts and other events where metal detectors are being used have always left me feeling unprotecting. Now I just bring the Dart along.

I got three of these darts. They are good stiff, strong and very sharp tipped spikes. I will use them for last option self defense purposes. I also got the optional sheaths. Shipping was fast.

Good purchase! I followed the advice of another reviewer and I filed a little groove at the blade handle juncture so that I could snap the dart in half after using it. This will definitely stop or slow down an attacker as the broken off blade will be inside them and they will not be able to pull it out and use it on me.

Pretty wicked weapon. Made of plastic, my metal detector didnt pick it up at all. Longer than you would think, I would say about 10 or 11 inches long. I have one in my briefcase at work in case anything goes down. Definitely worth buying.

Last ditch Self-defense weapon. It has a very sharp tip and very little flex, if any. Can be deadly if you know where to stick it. I consider this to be a single-use item. Use it and leave it inside the attacker or ditch it in a dumpster and run. The price is good and shipping was fast.

Overall worth the money.
Pros:
-Comfy grip, not letting go when in combat
-Sharp spike, and is triangular specifically for creating wounds
-looks menacing and would scare away attackers
Cons:
-made of plastic, but it was designed to pass thru X-Ray detection so I can't complain
-wishing the sheath didn't have to be purchased separately. A killer spike needs to be safely carried.
-has a metal ring attached. Just snip it off and its undetectable
Overall, Im satisfied with my purchase.

Excellent knife easy enough to conceal and carry just remove the steel ring. Very sharp 3 1/2" blade, all hard plastic with a good gripped handle. Well worth the price.a deal!

Cold steel Quality, I've had some really good experiences with cold steel, I like the plastic self defense pieces cold steel offers. I have a push knife and these and I really like the delta darts. I thought they were smaller than they are, I was thinking they were about the size of a pen, when actually they are like the size of a sharpie or one of those extra large wooden pencils for little kids. The rings are easily removed. This is a high quality item.
Dave Woodson on 03/28/2018 09:18am
These are not metal but a very hard plastic that will make a nice puncture wound on soft targets. It isn't my first choice as a defensive weapon but as a last resort. put it in the right place and it will be effective. I remember these from long ago when they used to sell them as a way to be armed when going through metal detectors. Obviously they have since added a soldered metal ring to comply with laws prohibiting certain weapons. I snipped the ring off.

It'll do what it's designed to do for sure. It's got a sharp point and edges. I would say you'd have no problems injuring anything. It's cheap and worth the price to put it in your bug out bag or glove box.
Maury G. on 08/09/2017 03:21pm
I've seen some really poorly made plastic knives for self defense. This is not one of those. This is really solidly made. The material is not standard plastic--it has glass in it so it is super hard. It is a simple design and definitely one of the best last resort self defense weapons one could have at a price that is almost as good as free. Shipping was fast.
Chad Nichols on 05/01/2017 11:35am
Great, inexpensive, non-detectable, last resort self-defense knife that is also not to much to throw away if you need to ditch it.
Pete G. on 07/28/2016 10:55am
This is a great last ditch self defense weapon. what more is there to say. Cold Steel makes a great product and this one is the right tool for the job.
Kyle Chissom on 08/30/2015 10:08am
This is a great weapon especially if you get the sheath that hangs around your neck.
If you watch the videos on U-Tube this thing is really that tough.
C Reed on 05/21/2015 11:31am
The Delta Dart is a plastic shank, designed for stabbing, period. It does this very, very well. Its sharp point and triangular shape give it a lot of strength and piercing power. And, unlike a typical steel knife, you are unlikely to mess up your own hand if your adrenalized stabbing action results in sliding up the blade. This is not a small thing.
I carry one for defense against dogs and other unreasonable animals. It's light enough to be ignored most of the time. And if I do wander through the occasional metal detector, I don't have a problem: There's a metal ring on the end of the dart when it arrives, but that is easily removed.
Don't expect it to do anything else. It's not a knife, it's not a throwing weapon. It's a last-resort stabby thing. At that, it excels.
H Garland on 07/22/2014 10:12am
It is what it is.. a non metallic stabbing weapon.. the tri bladed design is no doubt inspired by the spike bayonet which causes a threeway cut wound which does not close like a flat blades puncture wound. lightweight and easy to carry concealed as a backup weapon.
Steve Jones on 04/20/2014 11:17am
I keep this in my bag as a backup to my regular carry knife. It is polymer so it does not have the most durable edge and it is a little long.
Andrew Klein on 05/25/2012 01:40pm
The Delta Dart is great for covert personal defense. Remove the steel loop. Then there's no detectable metal. Though "plastic", you can puncture through hollow core doors with enough force.
I have several of these and have filed grooves at the base of the triangular blade so that if I ever need to stick it in someone I can break it off easier leaving the tip inside them with no easy way for them to get it out.
