Cobratec Knives Medium FS-3 DTOM Tanto Automatic Double Action OTF, D2

Product Description

The Cobratec Knives Medium FS-3 DTOM Tanto is a double action automatic OTF knife with a 3″ D2 blade. It belongs to the FS-3 series and uses Cobratec’s Kinetic Locking System to hold the blade in place once it is out.

The blade is a polished tanto with a plain edge. Tanto points are strong and good for piercing and utility cuts. The steel is 0.125″ thick and D2, rated at 61 HRC. D2 is a tool steel known for holding an edge, so plan on a sharpening stone for upkeep.

Size and build

This knife is 8″ overall and 5″ closed, so it is a medium-size OTF that stays easy to carry. The handle is zinc aluminum alloy finished in Cerakote Don’t Tread On Me. Total weight is 6.3 oz. A glass breaker is built in, which is a useful extra for a knife that rides in a vehicle or a go-bag.

It fits people who like an automatic knife with a short, stout blade: daily carriers, tradespeople, hunters who want a camp backup and collectors of the FS-3 line. Automatic knives are regulated differently from state to state, so check your local rules before you order.

For gear, think about a good belt or pocket carry setup, a sharpening stone suited to D2, a small flashlight and a pair of work gloves. A multi-tool makes a solid partner for jobs a knife should not do.
