Cold Steel 7.5" Folding Pocket Knife – Rugged, Tactical & Ready to Work

Cold Steel XL Espada Folding Pocket Knife – 7.5" CPM S35VN Clip Point

The Cold Steel XL Espada is one of the largest and most legendary folding knives ever produced, combining classic Spanish Navaja styling with modern engineering and premium materials. Designed through a collaboration between Andrew Demko and Cold Steel President Lynn C. Thompson, the XL Espada delivers unmatched strength, exceptional cutting performance, and an unmistakable presence for collectors, outdoor enthusiasts, and heavy-duty users alike.

The massive 7.5-inch clip point blade is precision crafted from premium American CPM S35VN stainless steel, offering exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Its long cutting edge excels at slicing, chopping, piercing, and demanding utility work while maintaining the refined appearance of a classic Navaja-inspired blade.

Despite its imposing size, the XL Espada is ergonomically designed to ride comfortably in the pocket. The patented Demko Thumb Plate® allows the blade to automatically deploy as it catches the edge of your pocket during the draw, providing incredibly fast one-handed opening.

The beautifully finished polished G-10 handle scales are paired with mirror-polished 7075 aluminum bolsters and frame, delivering outstanding strength, premium aesthetics, and exceptional durability. Cold Steel's legendary Tri-Ad® Lock provides industry-leading lock strength and shock resistance, famously withstanding over 600 pounds of suspended weight during Cold Steel's rigorous product testing.
