Gimping was actually fantastic and not too rough (excluding the flipper tab, WAY TOO MUCH). However, I really wish that the handle was made of G10 or Micarta instead of GRN. The GRN handle scales I received were of poor quality and varied in exact fit to the knife. They felt almost 3D printed, and not in a good way. The plastic parts that move the axis bar were all loose or misfitting ever so slightly and there was excess plastic that should have been sanded off still clinging to one of the handles scales. If SOG made G10 handle scales for this knife that could be purchased individually, I'd pick them up in a heartbeat. Overall, poor QC on the handle scales.","textLength":723,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"GJMA","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"New Bedford, Massachusetts","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-04-08T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"SOG Knives","siteUrl":"https://sogknives.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/5087_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"813628-SOG-12-21-13-57","title":"SOG Seal XR TI MagnaCut Folding Pocket Knife","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/813628-SOG-12-21-13-57","category":"hunting-knives-tools-pocket-knives","reviewCount":4,"ratingCount":4,"averageRating":4.5,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":2},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7350430,"locale":"en_US","rating":4,"title":"Solid, Tough and Balanced","text":"It was basically everything I expected it to be when I got it. Something that surprised me was how balanced it felt in hand between the blade and the handle. It feels lighter than its actual weight. That being said there is the occasional lock stick and right after I bought it full price they discounted it for Presidents Day. I’d say the Presidents Day price is the right price and that this knife and its other versions are overpriced. Overall an ok buy for this price, which is why I give it 4 stars. If it was a lil cheaper I’d give it 5 stars.","textLength":549,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Parke","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":"Arkansas","state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-03-19T00:00:00-04:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"syndication":{"sourceName":"SOG Knives","siteUrl":"https://sogknives.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/5087_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"813628-SOG-12-21-13-57","title":"SOG Seal XR TI MagnaCut Folding Pocket Knife","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/813628-SOG-12-21-13-57","category":"hunting-knives-tools-pocket-knives","reviewCount":4,"ratingCount":4,"averageRating":4.5,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":0,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":2},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7350432,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Best SOG Knife to date","text":"SOG knocked it out of the park with the Seal XR.

Designed and optimized in consultation with professional users, the SEAL XR provides the feel and functionality of a SEAL knife in the form of a large format pocket knife. This is SOG's first knife featuring a MagnaCut steel blade, regarded as a top performer in all established standards including edge retention, corrosion resistance, durability, and ease of sharpening. Titanium liners replace the standard steel liners used in the original SEAL XR to trim 20% of the weight from this beast of a knife while adding additional corrosion resistance and durability to this already hardy knife. Black, olive drab, and FDE GRN handle scales are included for the user to decide the look of the knife. This new SEAL knife retains the fully ambidextrous design and XR lock from the original.
