Espada XL S35VN

The high-quality Cold Steel Espada XL S35VN is not big, it's huge! But it is " great"-like!

The only word that comes to mind to describe it is "legendary".

Inspired by the Spanish Navaja knives (the Navaja is still used in Spain today), but with a design and materials that represent the 21st century.

The Espada series is the result of the brilliant collaboration between Andrew Demko and Lynn C. Thompson. This collection is a masterpiece of modern knifemaking. If you thought Crocodile Dundee had a big knife, look no further. It's even a pocket knife! The blade of the XL Espada is made of high-quality S35 VN steel, an American super steel known for its sharpness and durability. The polished G-10 handle scales and the 7075 aluminum frame not only give the knife an attractive appearance, but also a robust construction.

It can be carried in jeans or a pocket thanks to the pocket clip and also weighs "only" 454 g. Thanks to Andrew Demko's ingenious design with a "thumb disk" (a flat thumb stud mounted on the back of the blade, similar to the well-known "Emerson opener"), which allows the knife to be opened at lightning speed, it is always ready for use.

But the best is yet to come: The blade of the XL Espada is secured with Cold Steel's patented Tri-Ad locking mechanism, which has proven to be incredibly robust and reliable. This mechanism can withstand anything you can imagine - and remains securely and firmly locked and can then be folded again as smooth as butter, as if on springs.

With an overall length of approx. 42.5 cm and a blade length of approx. 19 cm, the XL Espada is a real powerhouse. It is not just a tool that wants to be used, but a statement. The Cold Steel Espada XL S35VN is definitely worth every penny!
