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!
