Vargo Sobata 398 Sintered Titanium Alloy Folding Knife

From Vargo, a company that specializes in titanium accessories, the Sobata 398 folding knife is a stellar outdoor companion. Instead of a stainless steel blade, the Sobata employs a sintered titanium ceramic-silver alloy, which is far more corrosion and rust resistant—great for wet environments. The titanium blade, in combination with the titanium handle, makes this one of the lightest folding knives in its class at just 2.3 ounces. However, that certainly doesn’t mean the Sobata can’t handle tough cuts. Measuring over 7 inches long with a sturdy wharncliffe blade and reliable frame lock, it excels under pressure. Fitted with a tip-up pocket clip and a flipper and thumb slot, this blade is as easy to take on the go as it is easy to open.
