Cold Steel Csth130Tmpz Templar X Throwing 1065 Carbon Blade 14" Oal

The Cold Steel Templar X Throwing knife delivers the weight, balance, and edge geometry purpose-built for throwing. With a 1065 carbon steel blade and 14-inch overall length, this is a no-frills thrower designed to stick—not a utility blade borrowed from the kitchen or a combat knife repurposed for the target. If you're serious about blade throwing as a skill sport or backcountry camp pastime, this straightforward design cuts through the hype and gives you what actually works.

Cold Steel's Templar X line has earned respect among throwing enthusiasts for consistent performance and durability. The 1065 carbon steel blade offers the right combination of edge retention and toughness for repeated impact into wood. At 14 inches overall, the Templar X sits in the practical middle ground—long enough for reliable rotation but not so extended that it becomes cumbersome to carry or throw from varied distances. This is a tool for people who practice.

Whether you're setting up a throwing board in the backyard, working a camp skill, or just exploring the discipline, the Templar X expects you to respect the blade and the process. It's not a trinket or a display piece. Maintain it, sharpen it when needed, and it'll deliver the same performance throw after throw.
