Product Description
The Chris Reeve Small Sebenza 31 S31-1690 puts the Forever Flag CGG, an American flag in motion rendered on glass blasted titanium, on the compact Small Sebenza 31, paired with a 2.99" CPM MagnaCut drop point and made in Boise, Idaho.
CPM MagnaCut is a powder metallurgy stainless steel designed by Dr. Larrin Thomas to balance edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Chris Reeve Knives runs it at 63-64 HRC on a 0.12" thick hollow-ground drop point, finished in a stonewash that helps hide everyday scuffs. The handle is 6AL4V titanium with a glass blasted finish and the Forever Flag graphic, which has appeared on CRK knives since 2002 as a tribute from Chris and Anne Reeve, both naturalized American citizens.
- Blade: 2.99" CPM MagnaCut drop point, 63-64 HRC, hollow grind, stonewashed plain edge, 0.12" thick.
- Handle: Glass blasted 6AL4V titanium with Forever Flag CGG graphic.
- Deployment + Lock: Single thumb lug; Reeve Integral Lock with ceramic ball interface.

Ideal for: collectors who want the Forever Flag CGG in a compact size, buyers who want the Sebenza platform in a smaller frame, and fans of American-made precision folders.

Chris Reeve Small Sebenza 31 S31-1690: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Chris Reeve Small Sebenza 31 Forever Flag CGG Drop Point (S31-1690).
What lock does the Chris Reeve Small Sebenza 31 S31-1690 use?+
It uses the Reeve Integral Lock, which Chris Reeve Knives machines from the 6AL4V titanium handle itself. A ceramic ball sits where the lock bar meets the blade tang; CRK designed it to reduce wear at the lockup over years of use. The blade opens with a single thumb lug.
What's included with the S31-1690?+
The knife ships with its pocket clip installed, plus a 5/64" wrench, fluorinated grease, Loctite, and a microfiber cloth from Chris Reeve Knives. No sheath is included: CRK includes its G'Feller leather slip sheath only with wood or polished-graphic models. Contents are set by Chris Reeve Knives and are subject to change.
How does the Small Sebenza 31 compare to the Large?+
The Small Sebenza 31 has a 2.99" blade, measures 3.98" closed, and weighs 2.8 oz, while the Large Sebenza 31 has a 3.61" blade. Both use the Reeve Integral Lock and 6AL4V titanium handles, so the Small gives you the same platform in a more compact frame.
What is the Forever Flag CGG?+
The Forever Flag has appeared on Chris Reeve knives since 2002 as a tribute to American heritage from Chris and Anne Reeve, who are naturalized American citizens. The CGG (Computer Generated Graphic) edition shows the American flag in motion, applied to the glass blasted 6AL4V titanium handle of this Small Sebenza 31.
Is the Small Sebenza 31 Forever Flag available with other blade shapes?+
Yes. Knifeworks also carries the Small Sebenza 31 Forever Flag CGG in two other blade shapes: the S31-1510 with a tanto blade and the S31-1508 with an Insingo blade. All three share the same glass blasted titanium handle, Forever Flag CGG graphic, and Reeve Integral Lock.
