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. If you want the sheath then please select the sheath option above when placing your order.
