Dear SOG Knives,

I want to say that the knife I purchased from AG Russell was literally a Life Saver!  This past Saturday, my fiancés family and I visited the AG Russell showroom. I bought a few knives for my collection, my fiancé bought a machete as an Xmas present, my in-laws discussed the zebra painting, and I was drooling over the SOG Agency and the AG Field Knife II.  Since the Agency and the Field Knife II are out of my reach during Christmas, I ended up discussing the Twitch II with the salesman.  I was really impressed with the one hand opening of the knife and how handy that would be when opening feed bags on the farm and cutting twine for lashing down cargo.  I was carrying a Victorinox Cadet, but I replaced it Saturday with the Twitch II.  As we left your shop, I clipped the knife to the inside of my pants pocket, but little did I know I would use it less than 24 hours later.

Sunday as we left NWA on I-40, a few large animals step in front of our car, and my fiancé swerved to keep from hitting the large towering animals in the road. The car spun out of control and we flew off the side of the interstate hitting a tree that spun my side (passenger) into 2 large trees. My right leg was pinned under the dash, as my pants had hung on something, and my seat belt wouldn’t unlock as the passenger side seat was sitting partly  on top of the center console. My right arm was pinned because the impact swung it up under me, but I used my left hand to retrieve the Twitch II knife from my pocket, opened it with one finger, and cut the seat belt. I then used it to cut away my pants leg that hung up under the dash.  If I would of not been able to get out of the car we would still be sitting there as no one was around us, we were way off down the embankment, the cell phone was busted, the front lights had busted out, it was really cold and we were wet from an exploded cooler.  By being able to free myself, I was able to disconnect the car’s power, and then I was able to pry open the busted trunk to retrieve a flashlight and a working cell phone.

We suffered a few cuts, some bruised ribs, a few bruises, a totaled car, but we survived. I’m grateful for our visit to the AG Russell Knife Shop and for the great products that they carry.  I will soon be placing a order for a Twitch II from AG Russell for my fiancé, who when I bought the knife was afraid I would injure myself with a SAT knife, but after our adventure I think she now see’s how handy the SOG Twitch II is in a desperate situation.

When I finally get in the position to buy the SOG Agency I’ll be placing my order from AG Russell. AG Russell and SOG have earned a customer for life!

To SOG,

My name is Zach S, I am a volunteer Firefighter and Emergency Medical Technician in the Oceanside Fire Department (New York), and a proud member of South Side Hose Company #2.  I also work for a Long Island craft brewer.  But mostly I am a proud owner of a SOG Trident.  I purchased this knife while with my brother, a member of the United States Coast Guard, on his base. I saw the knife, and I made the purchase.I usually carry the knife in my pocket, to use for daily things, like cutting open boxes, maybe a piece of rope here and there, and anything else a knife can come in handy for.

On the morning of October 14th 2011, a little while after leaving work, I witnessed a horrific auto accident.  Immediately my training kicked into high gear as I watched one car slam into another on the parkway.  I was able to avoid colliding with the spinning cars and pulled my truck over to the side of the road.

As I assessed the scene I noticed that the driver of the Mustang was badly injured and needed to be extricated from the car.  Unable to gain any access to the car from the driver side I approached the passenger side of the car.  The windows were rolled up and the door was locked.  I pulled out my SOG Trident, with the blade still closed in the handle I used it to smash open the window.  I assessed the unconscious patient, and with the aid of a few other medics who stopped at the scene we were able to get her stabilized and prepped for extrication. I was then able to use the Trident to cut her seatbelt off.  The Rescue truck from the East Farmingdale Fire Department arrived and the brave men and women were able to cut the door off the car without injuring the patient, or myself (still in the back seat of the car holding spine stabilization). Photo attached below…

You never know how useful a tool is until you need it in the heat of action.  So I wanted to send you a little thank you note for making an amazing product.  I told my brothers in the firehouse about what happened, and about your great products, so Im sure you’ll have a few more lifelong customers. I know I am!

Thanks Again,

Zach S
