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.

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

cutting ability for six different types of rope

intense hands-on training in the field
