SOG has introduced the KiKu XR Fatcarbon pocket knife, designed with Kiku Matsuda. It features a modified tanto blade made of CTS-XHP steel, renowned for its cutting ability, and precision-machined Fatcarbon handles for a secure grip. The knife combines aesthetics and functionality, operating with SOG’s XR lock for enhanced performance.
SOG states “Designed in collaboration with the legendary Kiku Matsuda, the Kiku XR has powerful styling that harkens to its Japanese DNA, this muscular pocket knife makes a subtle statement of strength wherever it’s carried. The high-utility modified CTS-XHP tanto blade cuts under virtually every condition, and the expertly machined, beautifully colored, and textured Fatcarbon carbon fiber composite handles provide a sure grip. SOG’s renowned XR lock is gauranteed to safely and securely operate this knife with an almost fixed blade like lock up. Expertly blending form and function, the Kiku XR is a rugged solution for situations that require a quick opening, super sharp folding knife.
It’s not often that people compare a pocket knife to a work of art, maybe it started when the Kiku XR first became available. This version of the Kiku XR kicks it up a notch via the beautiful precision-machined Fatcarbon handle scales. Serious wow factor with this knife.
A modified tanto CTS XHP steel blade takes on any cutting, chopping, or piercing task you can throw at it. It’s a fully ambidextrous knife that conveniently opens three ways via the XR lock, a kick, and a large thumb hole. The Fatcarbon handle scales are more than a pretty face and allow a secure grip with or without gloves and in dry or wet conditions.
The Kiku XR is a muscular folder that ascends to new heights of performance. Featuring our XR lock, black-coated CTS-XHP premium steel, and incredibly cool machined Fatcarbon handle scales.”
