SHOP CASE KNIVESThe SOG Knives SOGfari is a rugged, reliable tool designed for those who need a machete that can handle both outdoor adventure and survival situations with ease. Built to be lightweight, versatile, and highly effective, it’s the kind of knife you can count on whether you’re clearing brush on the trail, building a shelter, or tackling chores around camp. At just 13.1 ounces, it offers a balanced feel that’s powerful enough to chop yet light enough to carry comfortably for extended periods.
At the heart of the SOGfari is its 13-inch plain edge blade, crafted from tough 3Cr13 stainless steel. This steel is well-regarded for its durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to take a sharp edge, making it ideal for the demanding tasks a machete must handle. With a blade thickness of 0.08 inches, it offers the perfect blend of cutting power and control. Whether you’re slicing through vegetation, limbing branches, or performing light chopping tasks, this blade is up to the challenge. Adding to its versatility is the sawback spine, giving you a secondary cutting tool that can be used for notching wood, cutting rope, or even light sawing jobs when you don’t have access to larger equipment.
The SOGfari’s full tang construction ensures strength and reliability from blade to handle. This design means the steel runs the entire length of the machete, providing the kind of durability that’s essential for heavy-duty use. Complementing the blade is the handle, made from textured black Kraton. Known for its resilience and comfort, Kraton provides a non-slip grip even in wet conditions, giving you the control and confidence needed during demanding tasks. The handle is also shaped for ergonomic comfort, making long sessions of use less fatiguing on your hands and wrists. A lanyard hole at the base adds extra security, letting you attach a cord for better retention or personalization.
Carrying the SOGfari is easy thanks to the included ballistic nylon sheath. Sturdy and practical, the sheath features a belt loop for convenient access, so your machete is always at your side when you need it most. Whether you’re hiking through dense forest or working around the yard, having your machete secured but within reach makes it far more practical for everyday outdoor use. The sheath also protects the blade when not in use, preserving its edge and ensuring it’s ready when the time comes.
Measuring 19 inches overall, the SOGfari offers the reach and leverage you’d expect from a quality machete, yet it remains manageable for anyone to carry. Its combination of a sharp cutting edge, functional sawback spine, and lightweight build makes it an excellent tool for campers, hikers, hunters, and survivalists alike. It’s not just a blade—it’s a dependable companion built to make tough jobs easier and outdoor adventures more enjoyable.
