Price: $1,199 (Steel), $1,299 (graphite)
Specs: Forged 1025 carbon steel body and MS-300 stainless steel face with tungsten insert (Forged TEC); Cast 431 stainless steel body with forged ST-118 stainless steel face and tungsten insert (Forged TEC X)

Who it’s for: The King Forged TEC is for accomplished golfers who want more distance, while the Forged TECX X is for mid-handicap golfers who want more distance and forgiveness in a compact iron.
The Skinny: The fourth generation of Forged TEC irons has a shorter blade length, thinner topline and narrower sole to make it appeal to better players, and Cobra also is releasing the first Forged TEX X, a game-improvement club that looks similar but is larger, more forgiving and delivers more ball speed for mid-handicap players.
As with many Cobra irons, the Forged TEC and Forged TEC X are available in a traditional, variable-length set or a One Length set. In the One Length version, each club is the same length as a typical 7-iron (37.25 inches).
