This is my second SOG and I am positively surprised by the quality of workmanship and attention to detail. It looks great, wonderful feeling of fitting the hand. In the larger one probably for three fingers but in the smaller one it fits perfectly. I recommend it.
Compact and lightweight folding knife built for everyday carry (EDC). Developed by renowned Japanese knifemaker Kiku Matsuda.
Featuring a Tanto-style blade crafted from CTS-XHP stainless steel manufactured with powder metallurgy. The blade is hardened to 61-63 HRC and showcases an elegant satin finish.
The knife blade can be deployed using a thumb notch, enabling ambidextrous one-handed opening. Additionally, opening is possible via the lock button or the flipper. Jimping along the spine offers enhanced thumb control. When open, the robust and reliable XR Lock secures the blade in position.
The ergonomically contoured handle is constructed from weather-resistant, durable Micarta. A slip-resistant texture assures a firm grip, even in wet or dirty conditions.
A spring clip ensures convenient everyday carry, allowing attachment to a belt or pocket edge. Designed to be reversible and positioned in a tip-up configuration, the clip accommodates both right- and left-handed users.

SOG Specialty Knives & Tools is an American brand founded in 1986 by Spencer Frazer, inspired by the MACV-SOG knife used by special forces units during the Vietnam War. The first S1 Bowie model was created in cooperation with Japanese master bladesmith Ichiro Hattori and became an icon among tactical knives. SOG gained recognition thanks to the SEAL 2000 model, which was adopted for use by the Navy SEALs and is currently displayed at the Navy SEAL Museum in Fort Pierce. The brand also offers advanced multitools that use the patented Compound Leverage technology, nearly doubling the pressure force of the pliers thanks to double pivot points. SOG products are characterized by solid construction, precise workmanship, and are intended for both professionals and outdoor enthusiasts. Currently, SOG tools are manufactured mainly in the USA and Taiwan, continuing the tradition of quality and reliability.
