Cold Steel 17TS Kobun - Serrated

The Cold Steel 17TS Kobun Serrated is a lightweight fixed blade that takes its name from the Japanese underworld, where "Kobun" is used as an indicator of rank suggesting "soldier" — one who takes orders and gets the job done. The Cold Steel 17TS Kobun Serrated adds aggressive teeth to the proven platform, delivering enhanced cutting performance on fibrous materials, webbing, and cordage where a plain edge would struggle. Proven to be incredibly popular with military personnel, where it is prized for its light weight and discreet profile as much as its durability and cutting potential.

The Cold Steel 17TS Kobun features the iconic reinforced American Tanto point, making it 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. Despite its thin profile, the deeply checkered Kray-Ex handle is designed to offer maximum grip and is contoured to resist turning or shifting in the hand.
