Cold Steel (92FJD) FGX Jungle Dart

I love this item but I confuse myself with the company who sold this item and the material then it's make I wish it's made it by Stanley Cold steel and not plastic this thing is made by plastic when I read it better is when I find out I make a really honest mistake I keep it but I do not like it

I just want to say first, don't mind that ignorant 1 star reviewer. Cold Steel is the COMPANY NAME. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out. They got what they deserve for impulse buying without knowing at all what they're buying. I bought this knife alongside another plastic cold steel knife in the same line for the purpose of having a plastic knife. I knew what i was getting into when buying these. Don't expect to do any kind of heavy tasks with this thing. These are great because they're so cheap you can buy several and stash them around your home incase of an emergency situation where you'd need to protect yourself. Better than being unarmed. Now despite this thing being made of grivory, aka plastic, it has great penetration power. On the other hand it has absolutely zero cutting power but this thing isn't designed for cutting it's purely penetration. In a life or death situation this absolutely has the ability to save your life. I recommend this thing to all my friends who're looking for some kind of knife for self protection that isn't made of metal. The only thing is that it comes with a steel ring looped through the end AND I'M NOT CONDONING THIS but you could in theory with a little brute force pry it right off. The ring is there so people cant take these things through metal detectors. SO FOR LEGAL REASONS, LEAVE THE RING ON 😳👍

i definitely thought these were Metal since i bought a bunch of other cold steel products.. these are more of a Hard Plastic.. good for emergency self defense but probably only for a one time use

This is a piece of crap. I don't know how Cold Steel justifies making this... When I originally was glancing over reviews it appeared like it would be good for throwing but its PLASTIC! There is no practicality for this item. It has no strength, no weight, no decorative use. I have other cold steel products but this is just disappointing that Cold Steel would even put this out. Like other reviewers I didn't know what "Grivory" was, its just a fancy word for plastic. I saw a Cold Steel youtube review and laughed when they stabbed a cardboard tube but I didn't realize that the jungle dart was plastic. I don't know how even with it being a cardboard tube it didn't bend the tip. If you're standing in your bedroom two feet from a cardboard target (as I've seen some doing) then MAYBE this could have some purpose but after five or so throws its going to break down. NOT FOR SERIOUS THROWERS!

I received the Cold Steel Jungle Dart today, a day earlier than the estimated delivery date. It came well packaged, with small air cushions for padding. The product itself is great. Despite being made of plastic, it is not a feather weight knife, though this is due to the great feeling handle. Also, having tried it on a few cardboard boxes that it came with, the Jungle Dart does what it was made to do, and that is penetrate. It's tip holds up well, except for the very end of the tip, less than a millimeter, came of. Other than that minuscule problem, it is a great knife, and works great as a package/letter opener.

I picked up three of these to play around with. I've enjoyed throwing knives in the past, and am not an expert, but here are my observations. First off, remember that I won't be held liable for anything I say here if you hurt yourself playing with these. They are in fact intended to be used as weapons, and will very handily put out an eye or cause extreme bleeding. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Now, on to the review: Before attempting to throw these, I removed the metal rings to improve balance and air flow. This was not hard. I just took a pair of pliers to them and they came off quickly and easily. First off, the bad. All of these 'faults' are in fact strengths of the tool, and make it more effective for the uses for which it was INTENDED. They just happen to make it less effective for having fun throwing them at things. The Jungle Dart's main fault when it comes to throwing is its weight. I highly doubt that throwing these outdoors work out, as they would fly off target in the slightest wind. The second fault is the grippiness of the rubberized handle, which makes it very difficult to execute a sliding throw, as would (I believe) normally be used for a straight shuriken. And finally, I think the 'one-sided' shape of these darts can cause them to not fly true. The blade is concave on one side, and forms a flat triangle on the other side, which seems to cause air to flow unevenly and can carry them slightly off target. That said, my friend and I had a great hour or so tearing up a cardboard box with these, IN MY LIVING ROOM, and therein lies the benefit of something like the JD. No sane person would dare toss a real knife - or other pointy, metal object - around his living room. But the JD is light enough and 'soft' enough that we didn't cause any harm to any surrounding objects. We did take care to move my wife's coats away from the corner where the box was standing, but even after ricocheting off of my leather jacket a couple of times, it showed no damage (although I doubt that we nailed it with the tip). After an hour of throwing, all three of the darts had lost their pristine tip and one has a notch in the edge, but they are still plenty pointy (and strong) to easily pierce cardboard, and, by my assessment, skin, although I don't intend to fully test this. As far as using this tool for its intended purpose (seriously injuring people), I have no doubts that it would prove most efficient. At the time of purchase, the edges and point are as sharp as you could expect a 'plastic' tool to be, and would be very efficient for raking, slashing or stabbing. The item is small and light, and would be fairly easy to carry around, but I would not put it in a pocket. If you put it in point down, the point will quickly wear a hole in the bottom of the pocket. If you put it in point up, expect to skewer your hand on it next time you absent-mindedly reach for your keys. For carrying, you'll want to either make a sheath or else use the metal ring to neck-carry it. Or, as Cold Steel advertises, tape it to some part of your body. Just please don't try to take it through airport security, otherwise I will mock you and call you an idiot. Oh, and you'll go to jail. So all in all, I would say that the Jungle Dart is a good GROWN UP 'toy', or else a decent 'tool' with specific intended uses.

This thing is GREAT! In terms of what this is *really* for, and what you are paying - just shut up and buy it! The grip is great, and it's sharp and actually very scary. Between one of these and pepper spray (assuming that gets past the security "experts" that wouldn't give af if you were assaulted), you are pretty much good to go against anyone. Of course it's basically a nylon shiv.... but most people aren't very interested in fighting after they get stabbed. I found a sick locking kydex sheath for it online. This thing has better ergonomics than a lot of expensive knives I own! The grip feels SO solid, it has a nice rough thumb groove - and I think you could probably even get quite a few blows in before it broke. I actually just went ahead and got an extra for storage!

Lo que esperaba

coldsteel is a nice brand. all stuff is nice from them, like this small item :)

simple, effective, lightweight knife

Great product, it can actually cut reasonably well, and will be a usefully sturdy tool. Just remember that it’s still plastic

Do people not know what grivory is before they purchase or just don't read up prior or what?! Perfect for the price and does exactly what is says. Take a roast or side of pork out of the fridge and stab it see for yourself. Works awesome. If not Prime has free returns LOL.I got this because finding a discontinued CS Urban Dart on the secondary market is impossible so I settled for a $10 Jungle Dart just for fun. Would love to see pictures of the "boxes" these guys are stabbing and "breaking" them with,Cold steel does 100's of videos beating the crap out of the whole night shade product line without any issues. People just like to whine and complain about everything, you ever see the damage inflicted by those crude jabby things convicts make? Get a grip dudes, or spend some real coin and get a Microtech Jagdkommando ;)
