Cold Steel Espada Features The Cold Steel Espada XL carries a 7.5 clip point blade machined from premium AUS-10A stainless steel a steel selected specifically for its ability to take an exceptionally fine long-lasting cutting edge. At 16.75 overall this XL size gives the blade significant reach and leverage for demanding cutting tasks well beyond typical EDC use. Cold Steel s patented Tri-Ad locking mechanism secures the blade open with proven shock resistance and strength standing up to hard use without failure. This combination of oversized blade and rock-solid lockup makes the Espada XL a genuinely capable working knife rather than a novelty. The 9.25 handle is built from expertly polished G10 scales paired with mirror polished 7075 aluminum bolsters and frame giving the knife both a refined look and a durable lightweight structure. This design born from a collaboration between custom knife maker Andrew Demko and Cold Steel President Lynn C. Thompson blends classical Navaja styling with thoroughly modern materials and construction. At 16 oz the knife carries enough heft to feel substantial without becoming unwieldy in hand. An included belt clip keeps the Espada XL accessible for quick deployment whenever the task calls for serious cutting power.
