Cobratec Knives Large FS-3 Tanto LBFS-3TNS Automatic Double Action OTF

Product Description

Cobratec Knives Large FS-3 Tanto is a double action automatic OTF knife with a 3.5″ D2 tanto blade. OTF means “out the front.” The blade slides straight out of the handle and back in along the same line. Double action means one switch both fires and retracts the blade, and the Kinetic Locking System holds it in place once it is open.

The blade is polished D2 steel, 0.125″ thick, with a plain edge and a hardness of 61 HRC. The tanto shape gives you a flat grind and a strong, angular point. The handle is black zinc aluminum alloy, and the knife weighs 7.8 oz. A glass breaker is built into the design, which gives it a second job beyond cutting.

Size and use

This is the large FS-3. It measures 9″ overall and 5.5″ closed, so it is a full-size knife for the belt or a bag rather than a small pocket piece. It suits people who want fast one-hand deployment for work, camping, vehicle kits or collecting. Automatic knives are regulated differently from state to state, so check your local laws before you order.

D2 holds an edge well, so a decent sharpening stone is a good companion. A sturdy belt, a multitool and a compact flashlight round out a simple everyday carry setup. Model number LBFS-3TNS.
