WINNER of one of the most extensive testing and evaluation programs ever undertaken by the US Government for the Navy, the SOG SEAL Knife surpassed all others to receive the highest performance honors and become the chosen blade of the US Navy SEALs.
The US Navy SEALs are one of the most elite specialized military groups in the world. SEALs must undergo a rigorous training program devised to create the consummate warrior. Only a select few endure and are given the right to wear the SEAL Trident.
The knife needed to accompany a Navy SEAL must be just as worthy. The US Government's knife evaluation program included incredible tests that evaluated the following:
-
tip breaking strength
-
blade toughness
-
sharpness and edge retention
-
handle twist-off limits
-
two-week salt water immersions
-
gasoline and acetylene torch resistance
-
chopping
-
hammering
-
prying
-
penetration performance
-
cutting ability for six different types of rope and nylon line
-
low noise and low reflection factors
-
intense hands-on training in the field
You can be assured that on this extraordinary knife, the SEALs have done their homework, so you don't have to!
