On the mid-week supplemental episode of The Knife Junkie podcast (episode 404), Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco looks at his collection of Cold Steel fixed blades, including the Cold Steel Kobun, SRK, and Western Bowie among others.

Bob starts the show with his favorite comment of the week, followed by his "pocket check" of knives -- the Spyderco Manix 2 LW, FOC/CK Edition Gunstock, T.Kell Guardian and the Bestech Bihai (Emotional Support Knife). Also, time is running out to get on the pre-order for the NoVA-1 collaboration knife with Hogtooth Knives -- order deadline is midnight, March 31, 2023. 

In Knife Life News, the Dervish Knives Prima Fixed Blade Mid-Tech, a new TOPS self-defense neck knife solves the finger ring problem, Knife Rights: Florida Permitless Carry Bill (including knives) passes the House, and the CJRB Prototype comes in two distinct flavors.

Meanwhile in his "State of the Collection," Bob highlights the CJRB Pyrite and the Off-Grid Viper V2.
