Combining precision machining, refined materials, and Chris Reeve's legendary attention to detail, the Sebenza 31 delivers a dependable everyday carry platform built for long-term performance.

The handle is precision machined from 6Al-4V titanium and features a glass-blasted finish for a uniform matte texture, improved grip, and reduced visual glare. Natural canvas micarta inlays add additional traction while providing a refined contrast against the titanium frame.
