The Cold Steel Kobun 5.5" Tanto Serrated Fixed Blade Knife combines a proven blade geometry with a rugged fixed-blade design built for serious cutting work. Built around a tanto point—that distinctive angular tip favored for penetration and controlled cuts—this knife pairs a serrated edge with Cold Steel's no-nonsense engineering. The 5.5" blade length gives you reach and control without excess weight, making it equally at home in a hunting pack, camp kit, or on your belt during fieldwork. The black Kray-Ex handle offers a secure grip in wet conditions and won't slip when your hands are cold or gloved, and the included sheath keeps the blade accessible and protected.
Cold Steel built the Kobun without the marketing fluff—just solid geometry, proven edge design, and materials that hold up to real use. If you're after a fixed blade that handles tanto-blade advantages without the premium price tag, this one delivers the straightforward performance hunters, outdoorsmen, and gear enthusiasts have come to expect from the brand.
Tanto serrated blades excel at slicing and controlled penetration, making them versatile for game processing, camp tasks, and general cutting. The fixed-blade design means no folding mechanisms to maintain, no blade play, and one less thing to think about when you need to cut now.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tanto blade, and what makes it different from a drop point or clip point?

The serrated edge on this Kobun adds slicing capability, making it a versatile choice for camp tasks and field processing.
Is the Cold Steel Kobun good for hunting and game processing?
Yes. The 5.5" tanto blade with serrated edge is well-suited for hunting, field dressing, and camp prep work. The fixed-blade design ensures the blade won't fold under load, and the Kray-Ex handle stays secure even when wet or gloved.
What's included with this knife?

What is Kray-Ex, and why does it matter?
