Tigerstriping is one of most interesting camouflage patterns and was developed in Vietnam to blend into triple canopy as well as other environments. Our artisans at SOG have created a special process to selectively remove TiNi coatings to produce these interesting patterns. Be the first on your block to own one! The Flash line of folding knives debuted SOG’s patent pending S.A.T.(SOG Assisted Technology). This mechanism helps propel the blade open once the operator has initiated the one-handed opening action. They’re fast as lightning, safe, and provide an extremely strong blade lock. This opening action is uniquely different from all others with its fast start and power curve throughout the movement of the blade. When closing the blade into the handle you actually feel as if you are cocking a side arm, as the blade is held securely inside the handle. Invented by Spencer Frazer, who always manages to come up with something cleverly different, S.A.T. is the framework for this new line of lightweight folders. The piston lock is easily released with a sliding button. SOG also had the foresight to incorporate an additional safety lock that gives added security when the blade is closed. Note that when the safety shows red…you are ready to go. In addition to S.A.T., the handles (glass reinforced Zytel®) are contoured with a new ergonomic sensibility that makes the knife a pleasure to use. SOG has also incorporated a new reversible, bayonet-mounted clip that extends from the back of the handle for the lowest, most discreet carry possible, and dual thumb studs for ambidextrous opening.
