MPN: CTOTFUTBLK
The CobraTec Knives CTOTFUTBLK takes the out-the-front deployment CobraTec built its name on and pairs it with a standard, refillable utility blade. That combination puts it in a different category than most everyday-carry knives: instead of sharpening a fixed edge, you swap in a fresh blade when the old one dulls. It runs a 3.375-inch black anodized aluminum handle and a 1-inch satin-finished utility blade, measuring 5.125 inches with the blade deployed and 3.5 inches closed. This is a working tool for anyone who cuts drywall, carpet, boxes, or cordage all day and wants push-button speed without folding it open by hand.
The handle is machined from 6061-T6 anodized aluminum, and all interior parts are CNC-machined for a tight, repeatable fit. The dual-action mechanism drives the blade out and pulls it back with a single button, so the blade stays fully retracted and protected inside the handle between cuts. A built-in safety stops deployment if the blade path is obstructed and requires a manual reset before it fires again, which keeps the mechanism from grinding against whatever it hits. The blade carrier accepts standard utility blades, so replacements are cheap and available anywhere. At 3.2 ounces with a right-hand pocket clip, it carries like a folding knife but deploys straight forward. CobraTec backs it with a lifetime warranty.
This one earns its keep for tradespeople, warehouse crews, and anyone who runs through utility blades faster than they can strip and sharpen a conventional edge. Keep a pack of standard blades on the shelf and the CTOTFUTBLK stays sharp indefinitely for a few cents per swap. It is assembled and quality-controlled in Texas.

It uses standard, interchangeable utility blades rather than a fixed knife edge. The deployed blade is a 1-inch satin-finished utility blade that drops into the carrier. When it dulls, you replace it with a common utility blade instead of sharpening, which keeps a fresh cutting edge on hand at all times.
The knife is dual-action out-the-front, meaning a single button pushes the blade straight out of the front of the handle and pulls it back in. Between cuts the blade sits fully retracted inside the aluminum body, and a built-in safety prevents deployment if the path is blocked, requiring a manual reset.
The handle measures 3.375 inches, closed length is 3.5 inches, and it opens to 5.125 inches overall with the blade deployed. It weighs 3.2 ounces per manufacturer specifications and includes a right-hand pocket clip, so it carries much like a standard folding knife.
It is assembled and quality-controlled in Texas, with parts manufactured internationally. The interior components are 100% CNC-machined for a precise fit, and CobraTec backs the knife with a lifetime warranty.
