The Chris Reeve Sebenza 31 is the pinnacle of hand-tuned engineering with a reputation for rock-solid reliability and impeccable craftsmanship. With a blade length of almost 92 mm, extremely hard CPM-MagnaCut steel (63-64 HRC) and the iconic Reeve Integral Lock, the Sebenza 31 sets the standard in the premium folding knife segment.
