COLD STEEL 27LC RECON 1 W/ CLIP POINT KNIFE

27LC Recon 1

Cold Steel is famous for raising the bar in the knife industry and our Recon 1 tactical folders are setting a standard that’s hard to beat. Why? Because they are as tough as nails and will cut like a chain saw! Every facet of their construction has been over engineered to make them as strong, durable and effective as humanly possible. The blades are made out of AUS 8A stainless steel that’s been vacuum heat treated and sub zero quenched, and the handles feature G-10 laminate scales, massively reinforced by heat treated steel liners and five locking bolts. To compliment their super tough blades and handles, they each feature our revolutionary Ultra Lock, which practically precludes lock failure.

To compliment their tactical mission, we have given each blade a tough black Teflon finish. Our testing has shown this coating or finish offers three major advantages for use on tactical blades. The first is; it is highly resistant to scratches and abrasions while keeping rust at bay. The second is; it eliminates glare and light reflections which may give its user away. The third is; it’s a superior lubricant, which causes the blade to slip through even tough material with markedly less friction. This means you can cut deeper and far longer than with a non-Teflon coated blade.

To make the Recon 1® as easy to carry as possible, we have equipped each knife with a small, extra strong pocket clip. This clip is completely ambidextrous so lefties take note. What’s more, its diminutive size doesn’t abrade and irritate the palm under protracted use like a larger clip would.

ULTRALOCK
We believe this revolutionary locking mechanism (patent pending) is as “fool proof” as it gets and represents a big advancement in safety. The way the lock works is as the knife is opened the blade rotates in a semi circular manner around the locking pin via a larger cut channel in the blade tang. Then just prior to reaching the fully opened position the spring loaded locking pin moves forward through the oncoming straight portion of the tang channel until it “dead ends”. At this point the blade is rigidly locked open and can’t budge even a fraction of an inch as the locking pin is surrounded by solid steel which prevents any movement of the blade. In fact this lockup is so strong it can only be overcome in two manners. The first is to apply so much force to the blade that the locking pin shears off or breaks through the solid steel blade tang. The second is to manually retract the locking pin far enough that it escapes the straight part of the channel. Once this is done the curve portion of the channel can engage it and once again rotate around it as the blade is closed.
