TOPS Knives California Cobra Black 1095 Black G10 Double Edge Neck Knife CALCO-01

Leo Espinoza designed the TOPS Knives California Cobra as a purpose built self-defense tool with a pronounced, double edge recurve blade and spiked integral finger guard. This is an effective tool for the professional as well as general user with minimal training. The California Cobra is also functional for general utility thanks to the compact size, robust construction and ease of carry. The California Cobra comes with a blade of Black Traction Coated 1095 and Black G10 handle scales.

Brand new, direct from TOPS Knives, USA.

Blade: The 1095 carbon steel blade is compact, coming in at just over 3 inches from behind the guard. Dramatically curved, the double edge blade is devastatingly effective at piercing and slicing in either direction. Dual saber grinds deliver good durability with jimping on the spine and a prominent guard for security and traction. The guard is also spiked at the end as a non-lethal impact tool. Non-reflective and corrosion resistant, the Black Traction powder coat finish offers discreet use.

Handle: A full tang construction supports textured black G10 handle scales over contrasting red liners forming a simple, ergonomic handle that fills the grip in multiple positions. Simple and compact for carry, the handle has an intuitive feel and is securely held even under stress.

Sheath: Carries via a Black Kydex sheath with rotating spring clip.

1095 High Carbon Steel: Highly popular, simple carbon steel. Used extensively by both production and custom knife makers. Low abrasive wear due to low carbide content but very tough and easy to sharpen. Not corrosion resistant and will rust without proper care. TOPS utilizes a differential heat treat process which delivers a harder edge and tougher spine.
