At 9.2 inches (23.4cm) overall with a 3.9 inch (9.9cm) clip point blade ground to a mid-height saber profile, it strikes a deliberate balance between piercing capability, slicing performance, and blade durability that general-purpose outdoor knives rarely achieve. The steel of choice is CPM S35VN, heat treated to Rc. 59-61, which offers a measurable 15-20% improvement in toughness over its predecessor S30V while remaining easier to reprofile in the field. Finished in Black Cerakote for corrosion resistance and a non-reflective profile, this is a folder built to handle whatever Australian hunting and outdoor conditions can throw at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSOG Seal XR - Partially Serrated Folding Knife Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Steel - CPM S35VN:\u003c\/strong\u003e A premium American-made powder metallurgy stainless steel offering excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and 15-20% greater toughness compared to CPM S30V.
