Thanks to everyone’s had work in pressuring Congress the knife community has a great win.  The pending US Customs ruling about assisted opening knives has finally been resolved.

On October 28, 2009 The President has signed the Homeland Security Appropriations Bill (H.R. 2892) for FY 2010 that includes a permanent “fix” so that any folding knife with a bias toward closure cannot be declared a switchblade by U.S. Customs.

The Military times just did a great review of tomahawks and the SOG Tactical Tomahawk preformed well. Read the article on Military Times.

In case you don’t know the SOG Tactical Tomahawk is styled after the Peter Lagania designed version used in Vietnam.  We took that design as inspiration and applied SOG style and modern craftsmanship to make a great tool.

Here is a sneak peek at something for 2010. I won’t share anything else about it except it is something that we have never made before.

Enjoy

If you get a chance check out the November issue of Tactical Knives.  They do a great review of the SOG Throwing knives and Spirit.

Here is what he said about the Fulcrum throwing knives:

Built For Balance
The two throwers sport a unique balancing feature on the blades, giving the user the option of changing the weight distribution of the knives. Constructed of brass discs connected by a screw through the knives, these weights can be adjusted anywhere along the handle of the knife. The knobs are easily tightened by hand, and there is a large flathead screwdriver notch should the user want to tighten or loosen it more. I talked about how I like to throw bigger blades, but what happens when the small blade starts acting like its big brother?

According to the author he likes the Spirit and here is what he said

Broom of Doom
I attached the piercing weapon onto the end of a broomstick, stepped back about 20 feet and took aim at my pumpkin foe. On the second try the tip went through the pumpkin cleanly and into the wood behind it. I have other spears, but the head on the SOG Spirit is smaller, so it can be thrown farther with less effort. This size spear, more of a javelin, is rare on the market and is a welcome addition.

I suggest that if you get the chance go to the news stand and get this issue of Tactical Knives.
