Today we're gonna be taking a look at the SOG flash Tanto

assisted open stiletto

Or are we stick around?

Welcome back to the channel crew and today we're going to be doing a little bench top review on this SOG

stiletto style

Assisted

opening

folding knife now this is

the

flash tanto

Variety now you knife aficionados out there

ae gonna quickly realize that this is a fake is a counterfeit is not a SOG

If I'm wrong

By all means please drop your comments below

but i found this knife and

With the price on it

I thought it can't be real and got it in did some research looked through some

current SOG catalogs and past catalogs

Couldn't find it anywhere

That being said it's a pretty cool little knife, so we're gonna take a look at it now

Like I said when I took it out of the box you can quickly tell. It's not SOG quality a lot of the

Finishing on it is rough around the edges where the wood meets up to the metal

little corners

Machining marks things like that

it does have a pocket clip like I said, it's the long stiletto style

Handle here it is an assisted open meaning. It has a spring when you start to open and will go the rest of the way

and it is a

stiletto

Style blade there. It is 440 steel

And despite it being a knockoff. I really like this knife. It's it's fairly sturdy is what it is for cheap knife

We've talked about it before

If it's able to cut rope

Able to open boxes and of course with that style of blade It could also

work well in a self-defense situation

So overall for the money

I think it's a pretty decent not now let's take a look at a few of the specs on this thing

The first spec we're going to take a look at since got our scale on is the weight

This knife is a little bit on the heavy side

Yeah, it's around five point two ounces, so

considerably heavier

Than the Boker Kalashnikov that is my everyday carry

However, it's got a lot of stainless. It's got a little more meat on the blade and

That sort of thing would of course warrant it being

heavier

Also you will notice it is a locking blade here is the

lock for the blade to fold it back up that's pretty traditional

No big deal there next let's get some measurements on this thing, so we'll measure it closed first

And we get just a little bit actually over four and a half inches there it looks like closed

So now we will

Open it and go over all length looks like we're about eight and a half inches

Overall so that obviously would put the blade somewhere in the neighborhood of

Four inches on that so there you go crew even though it is a counterfeit even though. It is a knockoff

there

Is the lowdown on

What this particular company is calling a SOG flash
