SOG SOGfari 12" Kukri Machete - Black 3CR13 Stainless Steel Blade with Kraton Handle

The SOG SOGfari 12" Kukri Machete is a field-tested fixed blade designed for serious outdoor work—clearing brush, camp tasks, and backcountry survival. Built from 3CR13 stainless steel hardened to Rc. 44-50, this 12-inch blade combines a straight edge with a saw back, giving you two cutting modes in one tool. The drop-point design and weight balance make it equally comfortable for chopping and sawing. Paired with a textured Kraton handle that resists slipping when wet or muddy, the SOGfari won't let you down on the trail, in your camp, or during an expedition.

Field work demands reliability, and SOG engineered the SOGfari to deliver. The combination blade—straight edge for cutting, saw teeth for tougher material—means you're not hunting for a second tool when the job changes. At 15 oz and 18 inches overall length, it's substantial enough to get real work done without wearing you down over long hours of use. The Kraton grip texture is specifically chosen to hold firm in your hand whether you're wet from a river crossing or pushing through humid jungle terrain.

Every SOGfari ships with a nylon sheath featuring a belt loop attachment and snap closure, so you're ready to pack it immediately. The handle includes lanyard holes if you want to tether it to your pack or secure it during boat work. Whether you're a hunter prepping camp, an overlander managing trail obstacles, or an adventurer who plans for the unexpected, the SOGfari delivers the cutting performance and durability outdoor professionals trust.
