Exceeded Expectation
Typically, I find SOG folding knives underwhelming and over-priced. This knife actually exceeded my expectations. PROS: —Grippy scales with good ergonomics —Razor sharp blade —Powerful spring assist…. Deploys with the same force as a decent quality auto. —Tight lock-up with zero blade play —Semi-Deep carry pocket clip —Good size blade —Decent carry profile, thin, streamline, decent weight —Glass breaker and seat belt cutter —Easy muscle memory lock location —Clip combined with scales keep it secure in pocket. CONS: —Grippy scales make it difficult to slide in and out of pocket (trade off for good pocket retention) —Would prefer a better blade steel for the knife price
