For carriers who want carbon fiber pattern styling on a proven CobraTec frame, the CobraTec CTK-1 Medium 3-inch Carbon Fiber Pattern Tanto OTF Knife delivers the CTK-1 line’s usual speed and fit (CobraTec part no. MCFCTK-1MTNS). It pairs a 3-inch tanto blade in D2 tool steel with CNC-machined 6061 aluminum alloy construction, sized for medium-frame carry. Deployment is dual-action out-the-front (OTF) — a single top switch fires the blade forward and pulls it straight back in, no manual folding needed. It’s a solid pick for EDC, home defense, or as a fast-access utility blade.
