Product Description

The Spyderco Cobol™ C273TI is a breathtaking fusion of traditional eastern blade geometry and cutting-edge Western engineering. Designed by Paul Alexander, the Cobol features a 3.63" hybrid Tanto blade that merges the upswept, graceful lines of a katana with the robust tip strength of an Americanized tanto. Crafted from Bohler M390 particle-metallurgy stainless steel, the blade offers world-class edge retention and superior corrosion resistance, finished with a unique saber-to-flat grind transition for optimized slicing and piercing.

The handle is precision-machined from solid gray titanium, providing a lightweight, ergonomic chassis that feels as refined as it looks. Innovation is found in the non-locking ball-joint mechanism, which utilizes integral spring arms and seated bearings to provide a smooth, tactile "stay-open" feel without a mechanical lock. This makes the Cobol an ideal high-performance EDC for users in regions with strict knife regulations. With its generous finger choil and reversible deep-pocket wire clip, the Cobol is a functional masterpiece that transitions seamlessly from the pocket to the collection.
