CobraTec CTK-1 Medium OTF Tanto Knife, 3" D2 Steel Blade, Black Aluminum Handle with Glass Breaker & Pocket Clip

The CobraTec CTK-1 Medium OTF Tanto Knife is a serious-duty automatic for shooters, hunters, and outdoor professionals who need reliable steel and quick access. The 3" D2 blade deploys at the press of a button—perfect for camp tasks, emergency response, or any situation where one-handed deployment matters. The tanto profile delivers a reinforced tip and flat cutting edge that handles both precision work and heavy cutting without compromise.

Built around a black aluminum handle, the CTK-1 balances durability with reasonable weight for daily carry or field use. The integrated glass breaker gives you an edge in emergency scenarios, whether you're in the field or dealing with obstacles at camp. The included pocket clip lets you ride the knife in or out of a pack without fumbling, and the manual design means there's nothing to battery and nothing to fail when you need it most.

D2 steel is a proven workhorse in tactical and outdoor knives—tough enough to hold up to real abuse and simple enough to sharpen at home. This isn't a novelty piece; it's the kind of tool that earns its place in a truck or go-bag and stays sharp enough to trust when it matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included with the CobraTec CTK-1?

The knife comes with a pocket clip for secure carry. No sheath is mentioned in the product specs.

Is this knife legal to carry?

OTF knives are legal in many states but restricted or banned in others. Always check your local and state knife laws before purchase or carry. We cannot provide legal guidance, so verify where you live and work before relying on this tool for everyday carry.

What's the difference between a tanto and a drop-point blade?

The tanto profile features a reinforced, angular tip and a relatively flat cutting edge. This design prioritizes tip strength and straightforward cutting—it's favored in tactical and utility settings where durability and control matter more than belly or curve.

How do I maintain D2 steel?

D2 is a relatively simple, high-carbon steel that holds an edge well and responds to basic field sharpening. It can rust if left wet or exposed, so dry it after use and store it dry. A ceramic rod, whetstone, or sharpening steel will keep it field-ready.
