Hah! That's the perfect question. Not retarded at all!
In general it's a rugged, reliable, folding knife that can endure abuse and will not fail (break, unlock etc.) under stress. Can be used for defense as well. That being said, not everyone agrees as to what features actually makes a good "tactical" folder.
Some will say that it's an oxymoron because only fixed blades are appropriate for this purpose. Some say that the blade must have a minimum of 4" etc. Some say that the spine has to be of a certain thickness or that the blade must be of a certain configuration. The truth is that the very term "Tactical Folder" has become a popular buzzword (like "No Carbohydrates") used to sell even junky knives.
So buyer beware.
