The Cold Steel Kobun is a lightweight knife that takes its name from the Japanese underworld, where the word "Kobun" is sometimes used as an indicator of rank that suggests the word "soldier"in, or one who takes orders from his "Oyabun" or boss. It's a fitting name for a knife like the Kobun, which was effectively designed to be "a good soldier"in. Proven to be incredibly popular with the Military, where it's prized for its light weight and discreet profile as much as its durability and cutting potential. The Kobun features Cold Steels 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 Kobun's deeply checkered Kray-Ex handle is designed to offer maximum grip and is contoured to resist turning or shifting in the hand.

Kobun Fixed Blade is light weight and tough. Very sharp.

My wife got me one of those many years ago and has been a favorite every since

The Kobun is a nice little knife to have around for light work like cutting rope and things like that when camping, it arrived arazor sharpI and feels very comfortable in the hand. I would not recommend this knife for heavy duty to use. The sheath is trash.

Very good knife - gave it as a gift - recipient was very excited - going to use it as his main hunting knife

A quality Boot knife for its price range. Strong and dependable. My only criticism is the rough edge: it seemed like the final edge was put on with a course grind... I put on a new edge after receipt. And typically use my knives for work-related applications and also for construction use and Cold steel is my go-to brand for heavy abuse. So far, this holds an edge as good as any other cold steel knife that I use but with the convenience of a fixed blade I appreciate the low profile and small mass as it's convenient for everyday carry

I got the knife for my son who is an avid collector of knives. He just loved it. His first use of the knife was to carve the Christmas ham. It was like a hot knife through butter. Thank you cold steel

I'm on my second one. The knife is solid as a rock. Unlike the previous scabbard, this one is impractical to wear. The new clip holds the knife in a fixed position instead of allowing to float on your belt which was a good thing due to its overall length. When you draw the knife, the scabbard comes off your belt with it. Bring back the old clip.

The Kobun is just as advertised. A great knife that has multiple functions but is primarily a fighting knife. It is lightweight, easily concealable, and made with very good and strong steel.

This knife came extremely sharp as are all Cold Steel knives. Light in the hand and strong appearing blade. I still haven't found how the sheath is designed for right hand use. I guess I'll have to review more youtube videos!

Knife feels really good in the hand, very sharp and a very functional sheath.
