The Cold Steel Kobun is a boot knife that is designed to be lightweight and has a Tanto style. Its name is derived from the Japanese martial arts or underworld, where "Kobun" means "soldier". This name is fitting for a knife that is effectively designed to be a reliable and efficient tool. The Kobun closely resembles our Master Tanto in its profile, but it has a thinner blade, which makes it ideal for use as a lightweight boot knife. If you prefer fixed blades, you can explore the various options available in different colors and materials.
