ABOUT SOG Our story begins in Vietnam, where members of a highly classified US special ops unit - known as MACV-SOG - carried a unique combat knife into the jungle on covert missions. Years later, in 1986, that knife inspired a young designer, named Spencer Frazer, to found SOG Specialty Knives. His mission: to reproduce the original SOG Bowie knife and pay tribute to the special ops unit that created it. What began as a single commemorative model soon became a full line of innovative tools - field-proven by US Special Forces, even honored as the Navy SEAL knife of choice. Today, SOG knives are carried with confidence into the most demanding situations. Forged out of tradition, hardened in the field, honed for you. ## Features - LIGHT EDITION KNIFE (LTE) - Utilizing high-strength carbon fiber components, LTE knives provide the best of both worlds - the benefit of a mid-sized knife and a lightweight tool you can trust; it is a large-format folding knife - CRYO CTS XHP - Offers a high degree of corrosion resistance as well as excellent edge retention; early 25% lighter, the muscular Kiku XR LTE pocket knife delivers a statement of strength and nimbleness; it is an ideal choice for everyday carry use - XR LOCK - Capable of withstanding up to 1,500 pounds of force, this locking mechanism provides the ultimate level of security for your blade when it's open, ensuring that it stays firmly in place during use - CARBON FIBER LINERS - The LTE series swaps metallic liners for carbon fiber; just as durable, but far lighter and easier to manipulate and carry; Kiku XR LTE frees up precious weight while being no less capable - OUTDOOR KNIFE - At just 4.1 ounces, Kiku XR LTE is a lightweight folder designed for all the challenges of the outdoors; fully ambidextrous, with reversible pocket clip, it is equipped with SOG's strong XR locking mechanism and premium XHP steel ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08WJNY5P5 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #171,414 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #260 in Tactical Knives | | Blade Edge | Drop Point, Plain | | Blade Length | 3.13 inches | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Drop Point | | Brand Name | SOG | | Color | Blackout | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (143) | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Micarta | | Included Components | 1 item | | Item Length | 1 inches | | Item Shape | Rectangular | | Item Type Name | Holster | | Item Weight | 7 ounces | | Manufacturer | SOG Knives & Tools | | Model Name | SOG-12-27-04-57 | | Model Number | SOG-12-27-04-57 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Part Number | SOG-12-27-04-57 | | Power Source | hand_powered | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Hunting | | Reusability | Reusable | | Size | 3.1" | | Special Features | Foldable, Lightweight, Locking Blades, Reversible | | Style | Modern | | UPC | 729857011488 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 Year Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** SOG - **Color:** Blackout - **Handle Material:** Micarta - **Included Components:** 1 item - **Model Name:** SOG-12-27-04-57 - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Hunting - **Special Feature:** Foldable, Lightweight, Locking Blades, Reversible - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![KIKU XR LTE - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61r8xcvq2HL.jpg) ![KIKU XR LTE - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51KlgIXhH4L.jpg) ![KIKU XR LTE - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51e06vxRx5L.jpg) ![KIKU XR LTE - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611ywqYF7BL.jpg) ![KIKU XR LTE - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6158ufX37YL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - SOG KIKU XR LTE Lightweight Outdoor Ambidextrous Large-Format Folding Knives | CTS XHP Steel Blade | XR Locking Mechanism - SOG High-Performance Duty S35VN Steel Ambidextrous Carry EDC 3.9" Sharp Blade Seal XR --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/290171363-kiku-xr-lte](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/290171363-kiku-xr-lte) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-08-06*
