The CobraTec CTK-1 Small delivers reliable out-the-front action in a compact 2.75-inch package built for everyday carry. This tactical folder combines D2 tool steel construction with practical features like an integrated glass breaker and secure pocket clip. The stonewashed aluminum handle provides durability while maintaining a lightweight profile.
What Makes This Different
The CTK-1 Small stands apart from standard folding knives through its out-the-front deployment mechanism, allowing single-handed operation in confined spaces. The D2 steel blade maintains a sharp edge longer than standard stainless options while the tanto point design excels at piercing tasks. At 2.75 inches, this knife meets most local carry restrictions while providing sufficient cutting surface for daily tasks.
Key Features
- 2.75-inch D2 tool steel tanto blade with superior edge retention
- Out-the-front automatic deployment for one-handed operation
- Black stonewashed aluminum handle resists corrosion and wear
- Integrated glass breaker for emergency situations
- Removable pocket clip for secure carry options
- Compact size complies with most local knife regulations

Field performance centers on the D2 steel's ability to hold a working edge through extended cutting tasks. The OTF mechanism functions reliably in temperatures from freezing to desert heat, making it suitable for outdoor work, tactical applications, and emergency response scenarios. The glass breaker feature adds utility for vehicle rescue operations or emergency egress situations.
