CS27TXLC: 27TXLC Recon 1 XL Folding Knife - Black G10
Cold Steel
The Recon 1 series has become, for many people, the ultimate tactical folding knife range.
With a variety of sizes, blade shapes and edge configurations it offers unparalleled diversity, with a knife for virtually any situation. High quality materials and world-beating Tri-Ad® lock ensure that even the super-tiny micro series offer a strength and security that competitors can only dream about.
Ever popular with the Military, Law Enforcement and civilians alike, the Recon 1 series has been tried, tested and proven again and again.
The XL series feature all of the same great performance, cutting power and security of other Recon series tactical folders, but on an even bigger scale! With monstrously thick, wide 5 1/2" blades (available in both Tanto and Clip Point configurations) they are astonishingly effective but still very easily carried in a pocket or clipped to a waistband.

Cold Steel 27TXLC XL Recon 1 Tri-Ad Lock Folding Knife 5.5" CTS-XHP Black PVD Clip Point Blade, Black G10 Handles
The knife arrived very fast and was well packed to avoid any damage in shipment.The knife was very large and bigger than I imagined , but thats very good.I intend to use it as a edc. The knife had a large glass like handle about 5 1/2"and blade was large drop point and Blk Steel very sharp from box. I recommend this knife to any one wanting to buy a large Blk Steel blade and very intimidating if used in self defense action. It has a interchangeable clip on the knife that can be changed to the left side. Buy it and you will be happy and won't regret the purchase of this good looking knive. seller should be rated 5*****
Cold Steel 27TXLC XL Recon 1 Tri-Ad Lock Folding Knife 5.5" CTS-XHP Black PVD Clip Point Blade, Black G10 Handles
One scary knife! When I opened the box It look scary , it was scary when I picked it up. It was more than a tool or a knife it was a deadly weapon. I'm lucky I live in a state where we can carry in the open a blade up to 5 1/2".My first knife I carry for first attack is my SOG Spec Elite-2, 4 1/2 blade i believe? I've carried it in a certain way for years and can get to it and have it open in 2 seconds. For now I have to decide where I will carry my new Cold Steel 27TXLC XL Recon 5-1/2" Plain Blade, G10. A jacket or coat pocket would be perfect, but were i live that doesn't happen but maybe 30 days a years.I'm not happy yet about the belt clip, it needs to be a little longer and maybe wider. For now my Cold Steel 27TXLC XL Recon 5-1/2" Plain Blade, will be used by weak hand and carried as a back up until I figure how and where to carry it.Very sharp but not razor sharp.Trust me if you open the knife on someone if they don't have a gun they're going to run.
