The CobraTec FS-3 American Flag OTF delivers reliable automatic deployment with patriotic styling for everyday carry and tactical applications. This medium-sized out-the-front knife combines D2 tool steel performance with distinctive cerakoted aluminum construction.
What Makes This Different
The FS-3 features a dual-action firing mechanism that enables both deployment and retraction at the push of a button, unlike traditional spring-assisted folders. The D2 steel blade holds a razor-sharp edge significantly longer than standard stainless options, maintaining cutting performance through extended use. CobraTec's precision machining ensures consistent lockup and smooth operation cycle after cycle.
Key Features

Field performance centers on the D2 steel's ability to maintain sharpness through demanding cutting tasks while the aluminum construction keeps weight minimal for all-day carry. The drop point geometry excels at precision work and utility cutting while remaining effective for tactical applications. Weather-resistant cerakote coating protects against corrosion in humid environments and extended outdoor use.
