Compact size, big capability. The Cold Steel Mini Tac Bowie delivers classic Bowie performance in a slim, neck- or belt-ready package that thrives as a lightweight backup or minimalist primary. Its 3.63" stonewashed blade of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel punches well above its weight, offering keen cutting, confident penetration, and easy maintenance. A grippy 3.25" Griv-Ex® handle with aggressive texturing locks into the hand—even in gloves or wet conditions—while the clip-point/Bowie profile gives you precision tip control for detailed tasks and plenty of belly for slicing. Model CS49HCFZ (UPC 888151033241) is the small fixed blade that’s ready to work anywhere your day takes you.
Why the Bowie clip point? You get a strong, controllable tip for detail work and puncture tasks plus generous belly for efficient slicing—ideal for EDC utility, trail chores, and emergency use.
Key Benefits
High-utility blade shape: The Bowie-style clip point excels at piercing, notching, and fine tip control while maintaining strong slicing geometry.
Durable stonewashed finish: Helps mask wear, reduces glare, and looks great after hard use.
Reliable 8Cr13MoV steel: A proven stainless that sharpens easily, resists corrosion, and holds a working edge for daily tasks.
All-weather grip: Griv-Ex® scales with traction-rich texturing deliver a locked-in hold in rain, sweat, or gloves.
Compact fixed-blade strength: No pivot, no play—just dependable rigidity in a streamlined, carry-friendly footprint.
Everyday-ready: Light enough for neck carry, slim enough for belt/IWB carry, and tough enough for camp, warehouse, or emergency kits.
What It Excels At
EDC utility: Boxes, pallet wrap, cordage, zip ties, plastic straps, and food prep on the go.
Outdoor tasks: Tinder prep, stake sharpening, light game processing, and general camp chores.
Emergency backup: Robust tip for controlled puncture tasks; fixed-blade confidence when folders aren’t ideal.
Travel & kits: Smart addition to tool rolls, range bags, glove boxes, and backpack survival kits.*
*Know and follow local knife laws regarding carry and blade length.
Feature Highlights
Blade: 3.63" 8Cr13MoV stainless, plain edge, stonewashed; balanced hardness for edge life and easy field touching-up.
Geometry: Bowie clip point with a swedge for penetration and a broad belly for slicing efficiency.
Handle: 3.25" Griv-Ex® (glass-reinforced) with molded texturing and index guard for secure purchase.
Ergonomics: Neutral handle shape fits multiple grips—saber, pinch, and reverse—without hot spots.
Carry options: Slim profile suits discreet neck carry or belt/pack mounting (sheath styles vary by package/retailer).
Maintenance: Stainless steel composition simplifies care; stonewash hides micro-scratches from daily use.
Use & Care Tips
Touch up often: A few passes on a ceramic rod keeps 8Cr13MoV screaming sharp.
Rinse & dry: After food prep or wet use, rinse, dry, and add a light film of oil to the blade.
Mind the edge: Let the grind do the cutting; avoid twisting/prying to preserve the tip.
Clean the texture: Use a nylon brush to remove pocket lint and grit from the Griv-Ex® texture.
