Sobata 398 Titanium Knife
$225.00
Description

　　Titanium blade and handle for a classic knife that is practically weightless

　　This simple, yet classy design serves as the ultimate everyday carry knife. The combination of the satin-finished sintered titanium blade and the blasted titanium handle creates a classic-looking knife that feels practically weightless in the hand. The single-position titanium clip allows the knife to be conveniently attached to a belt loop or pocket for easy access. The modified sheepsfoot blade, along with the superb edge retention of the sintered titanium, has an excellent balance of form and function. The Sobata 398 is the perfect knife to take on long backpacking expeditions, to include in a tackle box for weekend fishing trips, or even just to be a centerpiece to an amazing collection.

Footprint sold separately.

For any repairs or maintenance above sharpening and lubing the pivot, please return to Vargo Customer Service for proper servicing.

Badass Alpine Shell With Gimmicky App-Pairing Zipper: Artilect M-Formation 3L Review
　　Setting out from the parking lot of Meadow Mountain, it was bright, sunny, and in the mid-40s — warm for a February ski tour. But that didnt last long. About halfway to the summits ski shack, clouds rolled in, the temperature dropped sharply, and winds started picking up, biting through my fleece midlayer. I donned my Artilect M-Formation 3L shell...
Up A Tree Without A Paddle
　　It was the trip of a lifetime. Several months paddling the Amazon, trying to eat without being eaten. It almost all went to plan. But when Bruce Frey and Ed Welch found themselves being trailed through the jungle by a jaguar at sunset, their only choice was to take refuge in a tree and hope they could survive the night. ...
Full Suspension Skiing? ShredShox Binding Platform Puts Shocks on Skis
　　Suspension systems are used in motorcycles, bicycles, cars, baby strollers, camp chairs, and even shoes. But why not skis? 　　That question led Nick Foster and Ken Nichols to create ShredShox — the first and only full-suspension ski platform. Like a mountain bike uses air shocks at the front fork and tail, ShredShox uses them to suspend bindings above the ski....

The 13 Best Airports in the World with Outdoor Lounges, Parks, and Pools—Yes, Pools
　　If you’re a regular traveler like me, you already know this: most airports are awful. You’re constantly rushing through a crowded terminal, competing with a harried mess of humanity, only to then cram yourself into a narrow seat for a few hours until you get to your next terminal purgatory—meanwhile, dragging your luggage the whole way. Germs waft through the...
Want to Live Longer? You Better Start Moving—All Day Long.
　　To predict your longevity, you have two main options. You can rely on the routine tests and measurements your doctor likes to order for you, such as blood pressure, cholesterol levels, weight, and so on.

The Best G-Wagen Ever Is Electric: 2025 Mercedes G 580 With EQ Technology Review
　　Known officially as the G 580 with EQ Technology, the new G stuffs a battery pack and four electric motors into the internal combustion version’s existing chassis rather than starting from scratch. The electric G-Wagen also receives slight stylistic revisions, mostly in the name of aero. 　　But even if electrification represents the logical next step for a historically established military...
