The Spyderco Cobol Folding Knife, model C273TIP, combines innovative design with exceptional craftsmanship for reliable everyday carry. Crafted from high-performance M390 stainless steel, the 3.63-inch blade features a hybrid upswept tanto pattern with a saber grind primary bevel that flows into a flat grind at the edge, ensuring sharpness and durability. The blade’s design is inspired by traditional Japanese tanto and katana styles, offering a striking aesthetic with a functional edge. An extended tail allows for one-handed opening, reminiscent of a classic straight razor, enhancing ease of use for both right and left-handed users.
The handle is constructed from solid titanium scales with integral spring arms and seated ball bearings, providing a smooth and secure opening mechanism. When opened, ball bearings index into holes in the blade sides, locking the blade in place for safe handling. The design includes a generous choil and hand pressure on the tail for added grip security, making it ideal for detailed tasks and everyday use.
The Cobra features a reversible deep-pocket wire clip, allowing tip-up carry on either side for versatile carry options. Its sleek silver finish and gray titanium handle complement its modern yet functional design, making it a sophisticated addition to any collection. Whether for daily tasks or collection display, the Spyderco Cobol offers a unique blend of form and function that stands out in the world of premium folding knives.
