"I discovered SOG knives during my career in the Marine Corps. After continuous need and practical use of the Para Tool in an extreme situation, I was thoroughly convinced that SOG would stand up to any situation. Every SOG product I have ever owned has outlasted and outperformed all other edged weapons or tools I have tried. Now, in my current job, and as law enforcement officer, my colleagues' continuously reaffirm SOG as an elite choice. Whether it's in the field, on the street or even at play, SOG weapons stand out and hold up to any occasion. SOG helps create the tools we want and need."
