Description
Ultra-short urban EDC pocket knife. It does not come with a sheath or pouch, but features a pocket clip for carrying at the top of a pocket or attaching to MOLLE webbing, for example.
The knife was designed by SOG (SOG Specialty Knives & Tools), a company specializing in military, tactical, and survival knives. The company's name itself is a nod to the elite special operations unit that operated during the Vietnam War from 1964 to 1972 (Studies and Observations Group). It used to be an American company, but in 2021 it was acquired by GSM Outdoors, which also owns the Cold Steel brand, among others. Production has been entirely outsourced to China, Taiwan, and Japan.
