Cold Steel Espada XL — 7.50" Folding Knife, Clip Point, Plain Edge, S35VN Stainless Steel Blade, 9.25" Black G10 Handle with Polished Bolsters, Tri-Ad® Lock, Pocket/Belt Clip (Model CS62MA | UPC 705442017615)
Meet the king of statement folders. The Cold Steel Espada XL (CS62MA) takes the classic Spanish navaja silhouette and scales it into a modern, hard-use folder that carries like a showpiece and works like a fixed blade. A massive 7.50-inch clip point blade in premium S35VN stainless steel delivers exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The contoured black G10 handle with polished bolsters gives a secure, gloved-hand grip and refined styling, while the proven Tri-Ad® Lock provides bank-vault lockup you can trust. Finished with a robust pocket/belt clip, this XL Espada is equal parts performance, presence, and pedigree.
Why the Espada XL Rules Your Pocket (and the Camp Table)
Premium S35VN Blade (7.50") – Powder metallurgy steel with vanadium/niobium carbides for long edge life, chip resistance, and easy touch-ups compared to many super steels.
XL Clip Point Geometry – Long, sweeping belly for slicey performance, bold clip for controlled tip work, and ample spine thickness for confidence in tough tasks.
Tri-Ad® Lock Strength – Cold Steel’s signature lock technology distributes force to a stop pin for class-leading lock strength and durability under real-world leverage.
Control-Focused Ergonomics – A 9.25" G10 handle with polished bolsters and deep finger grooves gives traction, leverage, and a natural index in multiple grips.
Carry-Ready Hardware – Stout pocket/belt clip and ambidextrous thumb ramp/opening groove (model dependent) for deployment with authority.
What It Excels At
Field & Camp: Food prep, cordage and strap cutting, light wood processing, and utility chores where a big, sharp edge saves strokes.
Ranch, Boat & Shop: Rope, net, webbing, pallet wrap, and heavy packaging—long blade = longer, cleaner cuts.
Collection & EDC Rotation: A modern navaja with premium materials and striking fit/finish—showpiece looks, workhorse performance.
Details That Make a Difference
Blade Steel: S35VN balances hardness and toughness, so the edge stays keen after extended use yet responds well to ceramic or fine diamond touch-ups.
Clip Point + High Polish (finish varies by run): Enhances slicing aggression and penetration while still offering good control for detail cuts.
G10 + Bolster Construction: G10’s dimensional stability and texture maintain grip in rain, sweat, or gloves; bolsters add rigidity and classic style.
Tri-Ad® Confidence: The stop-pin system helps mitigate shock and wear, extending lock longevity compared to many conventional back locks.
Carry & Use Tips
Leverage the Length: Let the blade’s reach do the work—long, sweeping cuts reduce fatigue and improve cut quality.
Choke Up or Back: Use the forward groove for control work; slide back on the handle for power cuts.
Mind the Real Estate: This is an XL folder—check your local carry rules and choose pockets or belt placement accordingly.
Care & Maintenance
Clean & Dry: Wipe the blade after use, especially around the pivot and lock interface.
Quick Touch-Ups: S35VN responds well to ceramic rods and quality strops; maintain the edge frequently rather than waiting for it to dull.
Pivot & Lock: A drop of light oil in the pivot; occasionally inspect the Tri-Ad® stop pin and screws for security.
Safety & Compliance
Know Your Laws: Blade length and carry rules vary by city/state/country. Verify local regulations before daily carry.
Safe Handling: Keep fingers clear of the lock path when closing; always cut away from your body and use eye protection for tough jobs.
