Sig Sauer Knives Xi Sbrn Xiphos 3.40" Folding Modified Tanto

The Sig Sauer Knives Xi Sbrn Xiphos is a compact folding knife designed for hunters, shooters, and field users who need a sharp, reliable blade in their pocket or pack. Built by Eikonic Knife Company, this modified tanto folder carries the Sig name and tactical heritage into everyday carry territory. With a 3.40" blade and 4.20" handle, it strikes a practical balance—substantial enough to handle field tasks, small enough to slip into a cargo pocket without bulk.

The modified tanto blade shape is a favorite among working knife users. It delivers a sharp point for detail work and a robust spine that won't fail under pressure. The Nitro-V stainless steel holds an edge well and resists corrosion, which matters when you're in wet brush or high country. The dark acid stonewash and satin finish give it a no-nonsense look that hides wear and works with any hunting or tactical setup.

Coyote brown G10 scales provide grip in wet conditions and won't slip around when your hands are cold or gloved. The whole package folds down to pocket size, making it ideal for backcountry hunters, range trips, or overlanding adventures where a second blade rounds out your kit. This is the kind of knife that earns its carry weight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Xiphos a good EDC or hunting knife?

Yes. The 3.40" blade is practical for field dressing, camp tasks, and general utility work. The folding design keeps it pocket-friendly for daily carry, and the modified tanto shape is popular with hunters and tactical users who value a sharp point and sturdy spine.

What's the handle material and how does it perform in wet conditions?

The handle is Coyote brown G10, a textured synthetic that grips securely even when wet or gloved. G10 is durable and won't absorb moisture, making it reliable in rain, snow, or field conditions.

Will the Nitro-V blade rust or corrode?

Nitro-V is a stainless steel that resists corrosion well, so you can use this knife in wet environments without worrying about surface rust. That said, any stainless blade benefits from a quick wipe and occasional maintenance in harsh conditions.

What's the difference between the modified tanto and a standard tanto?

A modified tanto has a slightly more traditional point than a classic tanto, blending the aggressive geometry of the tanto with a tip that's easier to control for fine detail work. It's a working compromise—still strong, still sharp, but less extreme.
