Tools and Hardware Reviews of SOG Specialty Knives & Tools STGFSA-98 Flash II - 1/2 Serrated Aluminum Handle, Black TiNi

Customer Review: Excellent Knife
Summary: 5 Stars

I've had a lot of knives in my life but none as useful as this one. I live on a horse ranch and often have to cut something while hold something else. With the assisted opening feature I can easily open the knife with one hand. Now I use it for just about anything.

It is a little bulky to carry everywhere but that has never stopped me. The clip on the knife has broken twice but that might just be me sitting down the wrong way.

It's not useful for running around being a commando but if you have to open a knife with one hand this is the knife.

Description of SOG Specialty Knives & Tools STGFSA-98 Flash II - 1/2 Serrated Aluminum Handle, Black TiNi

The SOG Flash II Knife is the full-sized version of the S.A.T. assisted-opening SOG Flash I, for bigger jobs and larger hands. A short opening movement of the thumb stud initiates the S.A.T. (SOG Assisted Technology) coil spring, whipping the AUS-8 steel blade fully open and locking it in place with a sliding piston. Textured aluminum handle scales provide secure grip and years of hard-working durability. Short of a fully-automatic (read: illegal) knife, this is about as fast a blade as you can get.

SOG Assisted Technology for Speed and Safety
Fast, safe, one-handed opening makes SOG Flash Series knives incredibly easy to handle in a wide variety of situations. Once you start opening the knife, SOG's Patented SOG Assisted Technology, or S.A.T., takes over. Through the balance of opposing high-tension coil springs in the knife, the force to propel the knife open becomes greater than the closing force, and the blade will open on its own. This unique feature means that if you are using your dominant hand on another task, you can just as easily open the STGFSA-98 with your other hand.

For security and peace of mind, S.A.T. was developed in conjunction with a superior locking system. The unique design of S.A.T. knives allows them to use locking mechanisms that are stronger, more reliable, and easier to access ambidextrously than conventional liner locks.

For Flash Series knives, this means the blade is held in place with a reliable piston lock that can be released quickly with a sliding button. An additional safety lock offers extra security when the blade is closed. For easy reference, the lock switch shows red when the knife is ready to open.

Cryogenic Heat Treatment for Sharp, Dependable Blades
Of course the workhorse of any knife is the cutting surface, and STGFSA-98 offers a full, 3.5-inch, half-serrated blade finished with an elegant black, hardcased TiNi, which is a durable titanium and nickel compound.

SOG's proprietary Cryogenic Heat Treatment process ensures that this blade will stay sharp over the long haul. This intensive process takes more than 48 hours and involves slowly bringing the blade's temperature down to less than -300 degrees Fahrenheit, then bringing it slowly back to room temperature. The stress created through this process relieves the material on an atomic level and increases overall strength and edge retention.

Elegant, Ergonomic Design for Ease of Use
Even if your blade is sharp, it's hard to make the cuts you want if a knife doesn't sit comfortably in your hand. That's why the handle on this knife features a unique, ergonomic contour. Crafted from hard-anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, the handle helps ensure that your knife is both durable and well-balanced. And it is lightly textured to prevent slippage.

At just 4.2 ounces, this folding knife is lightweight and easy to carry. A reversible, bayonet-mounted clip extends from the back of the handle, allowing the knife to sit low in your pocket for the most discreet carry possible.

This knife is backed by a lifetime warranty that protects against defects in workmanship and materials.
