The CobraTec CFCTLWTNS Lightweight delivers precision deployment with its dual-action out-the-front mechanism and premium D2 tool steel construction. This compact tactical knife combines carbon fiber reinforced aluminum construction with a razor-sharp tanto blade for professionals who demand reliable performance.
What Makes This Different
The CFCTLWTNS features CobraTec's refined OTF firing mechanism with improved spring tension and blade lock engagement compared to standard switchblades. The carbon fiber aluminum handle reduces weight by 15% while maintaining structural integrity under stress. D2 tool steel holds a sharper edge 40% longer than standard stainless steel alternatives, requiring less frequent maintenance.
Key Features
- 3.25-inch D2 tool steel tanto blade with 60-62 HRC hardness rating
- Carbon fiber reinforced aluminum handle weighs only 3.2 ounces
- Dual-action OTF mechanism with ambidextrous thumb slide operation
- Deep carry pocket clip positioned for tip-up carry
- Tanto point geometry optimized for piercing and precision cutting
- Glass breaker pommel integrated into handle design
- Overall length of 7.75 inches when deployed
Field testing demonstrates consistent blade deployment across temperature ranges from -10°F to 120°F. The D2 steel composition resists corrosion in humid environments while maintaining edge retention through extended cutting tasks. Law enforcement and military personnel report reliable function after thousands of deployment cycles. The lightweight construction reduces fatigue during extended carry periods without compromising structural strength.
