Cobratec Knives Gideon Hidden Release Automatic, D2 Steel

Product Description

The Cobratec Knives Gideon Hidden Release is an automatic folding knife with a 3″ D2 steel blade. It belongs to the Quick Strike series and has a drop point blade with a plain edge and a black coated finish.

The feature that sets it apart is the patent pending hidden release. There is no visible button on the handle. You push the bolster up to deploy the blade. A kinetic locking system holds the blade open once it is out.

Size and Build

The blade is 0.109″ thick and rated at 64 HRC. The handle is 6061 T6 aluminum in red and black. Overall length is 7.5″, closed length is 4.25″, and weight is 2.7 oz. That makes it a small, light knife that is easy to carry every day.

This knife suits someone who wants an automatic for daily tasks like opening boxes, cutting cord, and general utility work. A drop point blade has a solid tip and a good belly for slicing. The plain edge is simple to maintain.

For gear, a sharpening stone or guided sharpening kit keeps a D2 edge in shape. A small pocket organizer or a good belt and carry setup rounds things out. Check your local and state laws on automatic knives before you order.
