SOG Hidaka XR 3V Satin Folding Knife - Olive
Folding knife designed as an advanced evolution of the Kiku XR, featuring a blade with a modified Tanto shape crafted from high-grade CPM-3V tool steel. The larger dimensions and choice of premium material ensure the latest version excels not only in everyday tasks but also under rigorous field conditions.
With a carefully engineered design and high-quality components, the Hidaka XR offers excellent cutting performance and user safety. The knife is the work of distinguished Japanese blade maker Kiku Matsuda.
blade made of CPM-3V steel, satin finish, jimping
Featuring a smooth cutting edge measuring 101 mm in length, the blade is crafted from premium CPM-3V tool steel. This material stands out for its exceptional resistance to dulling. A Satin finish gives the blade a semi-polished look and helps conceal any minor scratches or scuffs acquired during use.
Jimping on the reverse side of the blade ensures a solid thumb rest, delivering enhanced control during precise cuts. The knife’s optimal balance contributes to superior handling and enables more accurate cuts while minimizing hand fatigue in extended use.
ergonomic handle, clip, lanyard hole
Handle scales crafted from Micarta composite in green offer lightweight construction while delivering outstanding resistance to moisture and damage. A non-slip texture combined with a finger groove ensures a reliable and secure grip during use.
A flexible low-carry clip enables convenient attachment of the knife to a pocket, belt, or other gear. The end of the handle features a hole designed for threading a cord or attaching a securing lanyard.
flipper and solid XR lock
Deployment of the knife is accomplished via a flipper, enabling rapid one-handed opening. Once deployed, the flipper also functions as a small cross guard, providing protection by preventing the hand from sliding onto the blade. The blade remains securely locked in place by a robust XR Lock, engineered to endure forces up to 727 kg.

Militaria.pl is a distributor of SOG.
SOG Specialty Knives & Tools is an American brand founded in 1986 by Spencer Fraser, inspired by the MACV-SOG knife used by special forces during the Vietnam War. The first S1 Bowie model was created in collaboration with Japanese master blacksmith Ichiro Hattori and became an icon among tactical knives. SOG gained recognition with the SEAL 2000 model, which was adopted by the Navy SEALs and is now on display at the Navy SEALs museum in Fort Pierce. The brand also offers advanced multitools that use patented Compound Leverage technology, which nearly doubles the pressure of the pliers thanks to double pivot points. SOG products are characterized by their solid construction, precision workmanship, and are designed for both professionals and outdoor enthusiasts. Today, SOG tools are manufactured primarily in the US and Taiwan, continuing a tradition of quality and reliability.
