The combined low price for these two knives separately is over $80 over the past 90 days. If you're in the market for these, this seems like a good deal for ~26 bucks apiece.

How did you come across this deal ? I don't see any 2 pack bundles unless I use the link. I didn't even know 2 packs were a thing.
Honestly something is off with the listing, and there's no reviews for this bundle and it isn't available in the cold steel Amazon store. You can only find it with this mystery link. Hopefully they're legit.

Not great steel, apparently. Could rust. Dulls easily.

Maybe I might have bit if the Kobun had a plain edge. Still very tempting.

Update:
Ok, I did a BNTL (buy now think later).
After seeing the price breakdown, there was no going back.
$28 - Kobun serrated
$24 - Recon 7

You could build a tree house for your kids or a dog house for your pig if you have the skills.

Stab cardboard boxes to show your friends how sharp they are, then put them in your closet and never look at them again. The knives, not your friends.

I don't think you know anything about steel, so good call sticking to those gas station knives.
