SOG Specialty Knives & Tools SE37-K Seal Team Elite Knife with Kydex Sheath

After surviving one of the most extensive test and evaluation programs ever undertaken by the U.S. Government, including knives from most U.S. cutlery manufacturers, the SOG SEAL Knife triumphed. The SEALs are one of the most specialized elite military groups in the world today. SEALs must undergo one of the most rigorous training programs devised to produce the consummate warrior. Only a select few endure and earn the right to wear the SEAL Trident on their uniform. The SEAL knife evaluation program included: tip breaking stress, blade breaking limit, sharpness, edge retention, handle twist off force, two week salt water immersion tests, gasoline and acetylene torch resistance, chopping, hammering, prying, penetration tests, cutting six different types of rope and line, plus an intense hands-on competition in the field. The SE37-K SEAL Team Elite fixed blade knife from SOG Specialty Knives & Tools (model SE37-K) is complemented by a hard molded Kydex nylon sheath. All SOG products are guaranteed against defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the original purchaser.
