CobraTec CTK-1 Medium OTF Knife 3" D2 Steel Carbon Fiber Handle

The CobraTec CTK-1 Medium delivers reliable out-the-front deployment with a 3-inch D2 steel blade engineered for demanding cutting tasks. This tactical knife combines the strength of D2 tool steel with the lightweight durability of carbon fiber-wrapped aluminum construction. The partially serrated drop point blade configuration maximizes cutting versatility across multiple applications.

What Makes This Different

The CTK-1 stands apart from standard OTF knives through its D2 steel blade composition, which maintains a sharp edge significantly longer than typical stainless steel alternatives. The carbon fiber aluminum handle reduces weight by 15% compared to solid aluminum construction while maintaining structural integrity under stress. CobraTec's dual-action mechanism provides consistent blade deployment and retraction across thousands of cycles.

Key Features

• 3-inch D2 tool steel blade with Rockwell hardness rating of 60-62 HRC
• Partially serrated drop point blade geometry for versatile cutting applications
• Carbon fiber-wrapped aluminum handle with textured grip surfaces
• Integrated glass breaker tip for emergency situations
• Removable pocket clip with tip-up carry orientation
• Dual-action OTF mechanism with ambidextrous operation

Field performance demonstrates consistent blade lockup under lateral pressure with minimal blade play during extended use. The D2 steel composition resists corrosion better than carbon steel while maintaining superior edge retention compared to most stainless alternatives. Emergency responders benefit from the glass breaker feature, while the serrated section handles fibrous materials and rope cutting efficiently.
