Cold Steel CS92R95 Spear Head Trainer - 10.66" Black Santoprene Blade & 6.33" Handle

The Cold Steel CS92R95 Spear Head Trainer is a fixed-blade training knife built for practice and skill development without the risks of live steel. With a 10.66" blade and 6.33" handle, both molded from black Santoprene, this trainer gives you the weight, balance, and handling characteristics of Cold Steel's spear point design in a safe, durable platform. Whether you're drilling defensive techniques, practicing knife forms, or introducing someone to blade handling fundamentals, a quality trainer lets you build muscle memory and confidence without the edge hazard of a sharp blade.

Santoprene is a synthetic rubber compound that withstands repeated impact and contact training far better than wood or plastic alternatives. The spear point profile—symmetrical and sharp-looking, though blunt—is one of the most versatile blade shapes for both offensive and defensive work, making this trainer useful across multiple training disciplines. The full-tang, fixed construction means there's no moving parts to fail or wear out, and cleanup after a training session is straightforward.

This is a straightforward, no-frills trainer designed to take punishment and last through hundreds of hours of drills. It's ideal for martial artists, self-defense instructors, historical blade practitioners, or anyone who wants to train knife skills safely before (or instead of) handling a sharpened blade.
