The CobraTec CTK-1 Large delivers reliable out-the-front deployment with a 3.75-inch D2 steel dagger blade in a tactical Army DigiCamo aluminum handle. This dual-action automatic knife combines precision engineering with practical features for demanding applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional folding knives, the CTK-1's out-the-front mechanism provides instant blade deployment and retraction with a single thumb slide. The D2 tool steel blade maintains its edge significantly longer than standard stainless options, offering 58-62 HRC hardness for superior cutting performance. The aircraft-grade aluminum handle features a digitized camouflage pattern that resists wear and provides secure grip even in wet conditions.

Field testing demonstrates consistent blade deployment across temperature ranges from -10°F to 120°F. The D2 steel composition resists chipping and rolling while maintaining cutting ability through extended use. Law enforcement and military personnel report reliable function in tactical scenarios where quick blade access proves critical. The glass breaker feature has proven effective on tempered automotive glass in emergency extractions.
