SOG Specialty Knives

A well known brand name in the world of outdoor survival, tactical knives and multipurpose tools was founded by Spencer Frazer in 1986. The letters SOG originally stood for Studies and Observation Group, an elite joint services military group designed for covert operations in the Vietnam War.

Their First Knife
The first knife produced by the company was a fixed blade commemorative knife that was manufactured from an original design of a Vietnam military knife. Their first award winning folding knife was named the Tomcat and produced in 1988. Today the SOG Tomcat 3 is the updated version of this popular knife. The blades on the current knives are sport the clip point style and made of high quality VG-10 stainless steel, are rust resistant and super sharp. The handles on these knives offer a comfortable no slip grip. These knives are built to last a lifetime and make excellent choices for law enforcement and emergency rescue use.

SOG Assisted Technology
A new concept in design was created in 2000 to make it easier and faster to open a folding knife using either hand. Assisted opening knives should not be confused with switch blade knives, SOG knives that use this technology do not open at the touch of a button. The user must apply pressure to a thumb stud or specially designed flipper to open the blade.
