SOG Knives Flash II Knife

Item #SOG0011 | 225 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Great, not Perfect

By Ranked #288 - Kayak Accessories October 31, 2010

First off, this knife will last. I've used the Flash II for a long time now and this year's model has raised the bar. A few changes include: Molded handle with more rough areas which increase grip even when wet/bloodied up; the newly revamped ergonomic safety release is easier to actuate than previous models and the non-serated blade comes sharp enough to shave with. Unfortunately, this sharpness only lasts a few weeks with regular use and upkeep. The AUS-8 stainless looks and feels good, it just doesn't keep its edge as well as I would like. All in all, it's a great knife with a good feel, good looks, and it's easily carried, just expect to sharpen the blade weekly.
