Swedge III

BH-03

We share a belief with knife designer, Brent Beshara - excellence in design is fundamental. Born out of that principle is this unique set of tactical blades.

As Canadian military operator for 24 years, spec ops navy diver, special forces, life long martial artist and custom knife designer & maker, Beshara has invented revolutionary blade geometry, BESH Wedge™. The result is superior tip strength less prone to breaking. The S-Wedge’s functional shapes are fast and powerful with grind lines never seen before. All knives feature a full tang, G10 handles for non-slip grip and a heavy duty Kydex sheath that offers multiple mounting options.

Cryogenic Heat Treatment


SOG's unique cryogenic heat treatment process increases the toughness and wear resistance of our blades. Taking the knife slowly down in temperature to less than -300°F and then back to room temperature. This stress relieves the material on an atomic level and increases overall strength as well as edge retention. Knife edges stay sharp longer with significantly less micro-fracturing and edge-chipping. Its this dedication to making your knife SOG sharp that sets us apart from the rest.

Message from the Designer


Brent Beshara, inventor of the SOG Swedge series, retired Canadian military, and National Explosive Ordnance Disposal School instructor had this to say about the innovative Wedge® design:

"Through my innovativeness, enthusiasm and real world experience, my designs focus on the needs of the end user. Whether you are an individual client or a corporation, I maintain an understanding of your requirements while creating designs that are distinctive and functional."
