Features:

• Product 1: Overall length: 9 7/8 inch
• Product 1: Blade length: 5 1/2 inch
• Product 1: Steel: Japanese aus 8a stainless
• Product 1: Sport type: Hunting
• Product 2: As much as Cold Steel loves the massive cutting and piercing power of big, fixed blade knives, there is no denying that wearing one in plain sight will often draw unwanted attention or comments. Conversely, small fixed blades like the Kyoto knives seem to go unnoticed or, if they do draw attention, they almost always get a “pass” because of their small size and innocuous appearance.
• Product 2: Available in traditional and reinforced point blade styles, they offer astounding cutting and thrusting potential that belies their modest stature.
• Product 2: The robustly stout blades have wide, full tangs that run the full length of the handle. They are coupled with stainless steel guards and super high traction Kray-Ex handles that are stylized to mimic the traditional look of cord wrapped Japanese sword handles.
• Product 2: The slim, comfortable sheath is versatile and will accept a bead chain lanyard, or a Cold Steel C-Clip, so it can be carried in a variety of ways.

Details: Cold Steel 17TZ Kobun, Black, One Size
The Kobun is a lightweight tanto styled boot knife. It takes its namesake from the Japanese martial, or underworld where the word 'Kobun' means 'Soldier'. it's a fitting name for a knife like the Kobun, which was effectively designed to be 'a good Soldier'. in profile it closely resembles the master tanto, but it sports a thinner blade, and that supports its main function; to be a light weight boot knife. Like the Tantos, it features the tanto styled reinforced point. This contrasts sharply with most boot knives on the market today which are Notorious for their paper thin points which are easily broken or bent. In contrast, the Kobun's point is highly resistant to bending or breaking because it is reinforced by the full thickness of the blade's spine which runs almost to the very tip of the blade. The Kobun's deeply Checkered Kray-Ex handle is designed to offer minimum bulk with maximum grip. Its cross section was made as thin as possible (approximately 1/2'), then contoured to resist turning or shifting in the hand. The Kobun comes complete with a Secure-Ex sheath.
