Character and philosophy
The SOG Hidaka XR is designed as a durable, high-performance folding knife that can handle not only everyday tasks but also more demanding outdoor situations. The CPM 3V tool steel blade is known for extreme toughness and high resistance to chipping, making it ideal for hard cutting tasks or work in demanding environments.
The modified tanto / Kiku blade profile provides an excellent combination of penetration, aggressive cutting performance, and versatile usability. The construction is designed to offer precise control during work while also providing sufficient strength for heavier tasks.
The XR Lock ranks among the strongest locking mechanisms in its category and allows safe one-handed operation from both sides. Thanks to this, the knife is comfortable for both right-handed and left-handed users.
