Built around a one-piece integral titanium handle and a precision button lock mechanism, the Sonora combines lightweight durability with outstanding ergonomics and a refined, minimalist design.

This configuration features a 3.35-inch drop point blade crafted from premium CPM S90V stainless steel with a lightwashed finish. Known for its exceptional edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, S90V delivers long-lasting cutting performance for everyday utility, professional use, and enthusiast collections.

Manufactured entirely in the USA, the Sonora showcases MachineWise's commitment to precision CNC machining, tight tolerances, and functional engineering.
