Added pics and specs to CS-39LKC Cold Steel Kobun
In Japan, the underworld meaning of “Kobun” is “soldier” and that’s exactly what we have designed this knife to do; be a good soldier. Most boot knives are notorious for their paper thin, easily bent or broken points. In contrast, the Kobun’s acute point is highly resistant to this because it is reinforced by the full thickness of the blade’s spine which runs almost to the very tip. The Kobun’s handle was designed to offer minimum bulk and maximum grip. Its cross section was made as thin as possible, then deeply contoured and checkered to resist turning or shifting in the hand.
