Title: As expected from SOG
Review: I returned this in favor of a knife with a partially serrated blade, but this is still a great knife. Blade is sharp, blade steel is AUS8, which isn't the greatest but it's good, should hold an edge and stand up to a reasonable amount of abuse. The blade is bigger than you would expect, both in length and in thickness. The back of the blade has ridges for your thumb to provide more support. The rubber handle is comfortable, and unlike some knives which have finger grooves cut in, the grip is plain, making this knife comfortably ambidextrous. While it does have a full tang, it isn't as sturdy as I would expect - see for yourself by unscrewing the screw at the pommel, and be careful about flexing the blade side to side, as that is most likely to break the tang. This knife isn't the greatest, and it has a few problems, but it does have the quality you would expect from SOG and it is a nice-looking and well-performing tool.
