Check out the video of the Twitch XL that I just finished.  It is a work in progress and let me know what you think.

I am trying to compile a list of apperances of SOG products in various TV shows and movies. Here is the list I have so far. I am sure that there are I items I am missing so if you know of anything please let me know.

Lost – Tigershark

House – Twitch XL

Kill Bill – Desert Daggert

Shooter – Twitch XL

Terminator 2 – SOG Bowie

Battlestar Galactica – SEAL Revolver

Bonus point if you can provide or point to an image of the knife in the TV show or movie.

Update: I have also posted this on bladeforums.com and gotten some good answers to add to the list.

The movie “SOLDIER” with Kurt Russell has at least two SOG’s that I have seen.

Shows Kurt in action with a SOG Seal 2000.

Also, shows Jason Scott Lee in action with a SOG Pentagon in the final one-on-one fight scene with Kurt.

We are currently in the process of uploading all the new product information to the SOG website. In the meantime if you can not wait to see everything online a PDF of the catalog has been uploaded for your enjoyment. The file is about 10 MB in size so give it some time to download.

I recently received this comment from Joe Norman, Whitetail Deer expert.

SOG,
I would like to personally thank you for your commitment to excellence. I have carried the SOG Revolver on every hunt I have went on. There is truly nothing that compares to the revolver. I have cut numerous limbs and small trees out of my way during stand placement and I have also cleaned one bear and five whitetail deer and the saw and knife are both as sharp as the day I got it. Every hunter needs this and it is so convienent to carry. Thanks again……

Joe Norman,

It seems like the Hunter Revolver is getting quite popular and if you have not checked it out yet what are you waiting for?

We have been working on this for a couple months and I am happy to finally announce that almost all of our Arc-Lock knives are now being produced with VG-10 blades. This now includes the X-Ray Vision, Vision, Mini X-Ray Vision, Pentagon Elite I and II, Spec Elite I. Also, this was done with out increasing the cost of these knives. If you have been holding off on buying one of these knives, you no longer have an excuse. We were also able to do this with out raising prices.

The blades are stamped with VG-10 and should be showing up in stores any day now.

Jake with multi-tool.org posted some nice images on flickr comparing the SOG PowerLock wire cutter and the SwissTool. Here are his comments and some pictures.

The wire cutter on SOG’s new PowerLock is wider and has a much better edge than the wire cutter on most other multi-tools. I was able to cut lamp cord with it whereas most other multi-tools make a mess of finely stranded wire.

This photo shows the SwissTool Spirit jammed on lamp cord (right panel). I can actually suspend the SwissTool Spirit by the wire. It didn’t take a lot of force but I did have to pry the SwissTool Spirit jaws apart. It had just mashed the wires rather than cutting them (left panel). The clean ends were cut with the new SOG PowerLock.

I just wanted to let everyone know that the SOG Kilowatt knives have begun shipping and they should be showing up in stores in the next two weeks.  If you have ordered one your wait is coming to an end.  We are very happy with this knife and think that it will be a great seller.  Any questions or comments let me know.

I know everyone has been waiting patiently for more details on the SOG – Kikuo Matusda. So with out further ado I am posting the details and a couple more images.
