## Description

COLD STEEL OYABUN TANTO POINT FOLDING KNIFE: For years we have thought about making a folding knife that closely emulates our famous Tanto. Andrew Demko worked on the problem, and with Lynn Thompson's input, a satisfactory solution was discovered. The result is what we offer here, the Oyabun! It incorporates a reinforced blade point, a high satin polish, expert heat treatment (Rc57 and sub-zero quenched), and the kind of stunningly sharp edge Cold Steel's reputation was founded upon. Furthermore, it is equipped with an integral flipper for effortless opening, and a (patent pending) leaf spring lock and safety. The 4034 stainless steel blade is housed in a strong, economical handle that's reinforced with stainless steel liners. The handle is injection molded with a Griv-Ex foundation and then over-molded with soft, checkered Kray-Ex fastened to the frame with two robust bolts. FEATURES: - Griv-Ex Handle; - 4034 Stainless Steel Blade; - Spring Leaf Lock. SPECS: Weight: 4.1 oz (116.2 g); Blade Thickness: 3.8 mm; Blade Lengths: 3 1/2"; Handle Length 4 3/4"; Overall Length: 8 1/4".

Review: Lever only locks blade in open position. - Locking safety lever only locks when blade is open. Has good feel in hand. Could be a little easier to open, but probably with some use it may improve. Seems to be of good quality and build. It would be nice if they made this with spring assist.
Review: Well worth it - Works great and sharp right out of the box. I like the Tanto blade and the lock works great and releases when you want it to with intentional ease.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lever only locks blade in open position.

Locking safety lever only locks when blade is open. Has good feel in hand. Could be a little easier to open, but probably with some use it may improve. Seems to be of good quality and build. It would be nice if they made this with spring assist.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well worth it

Works great and sharp right out of the box. I like the Tanto blade and the lock works great and releases when you want it to with intentional ease.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ First one was a dud. Replacement was very good.
*by W***E on July 19, 2024*

Updated review of replacement knife: The replacement knife has none of the issues that the 1st knife had. Action is good, lock up is good, the secondary lock makes more contact and the leaf spring pushes down like it should to disengage the lock. I'm happy with this purchase now. Original Review of 1st knife: This is my first Cold Steel knife. Out of the box it was very sharp as expected. The action was slow for a knife running on bearings. The scales and liners on this are very thin/flimsy but I was aware of that before I purchased. I discovered right away that the lock didn't fully engage with any consistency. It appears that when fully engaged the liner lock is at about 30%. When it doesn't fully engage it is at about a 10%-15%. Out of roughly 20 blade deployments, it didn't fully engage more than half of the attempts. When it did fully engage it was very difficult to push the spring down so that I could lower the blade. More difficult than any liner lock should be. Others have commented on this problem but I've also seen reviews where owners do not have that issue. It seems some of these have this issue and others don't. With the blade open, the secondary lock does not completely stop the liner lock from moving . It does prevent the blade from closing but you can still move the liner lock down from the "normal" lock-up (30%) to what I'm estimating to be 10%-15%. It appears the secondary lock only makes contact with the underside of the liner lock at the very rear of the secondary lock leaving about a 90% gap in contact between both. This is why I'm still able to push the liner lock down with the secondary lock engaged. I do not have any confidence in the liner lock of the knife I received and I don't believe it's really safe to use. So I have initiated a return and replacement from Amazon. I will update this review once the replacement arrives and has been inspected.
