The Cold Steel Spartan Folding Kopis 4-1/2" Carpenter CTS BD1 Stonewash Blade is a bold, heavy-duty folding knife engineered for serious cutting performance. Inspired by the ancient kopis blade design, this knife features a forward-curving 4.5-inch blade that maximizes chopping power and slicing efficiency while remaining compact enough for folding carry.
The stonewashed blade is crafted from Carpenter CTS BD1 stainless steel, a premium American-made steel known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. This steel provides a reliable balance between hardness and durability, making it ideal for survival, bushcraft, and tactical field use.
Strong edge retention for extended cutting sessions
Excellent corrosion resistance in outdoor environments

Stonewash finish reduces visible wear and glare
The Spartan features textured handles designed for maximum grip and control, even in wet or gloved conditions. Paired with Cold Steel’s renowned Tri-Ad locking mechanism, this knife offers exceptional lock strength and reliability during hard use.
