I recently read the fantastic book Damn Few: Making the Modern SEAL Warrior by Rorke Denver.
The book in itself is a fascinating read about the training and mentality of some of the most elite warriors on the planet.
Though the section about knives is short, and more of a tactical nature, there was some interesting take aways:
“A Folding knife is a broken knife. Great in your pocket at home, not so great in battle”
“For most SEALs the big Rambo knife is mostly a myth”
In his own words, Rorke had two different knives he would choose from to carry on missions.
SOG Desert Dagger w/ 6″ blade
SOG Pentagon Knife w/ 5″ blade
So if you are in the market for a fixed blade tactical knife, you sure couldn’t go wrong with either of the choices above. Personally endorsed by a Navy SEAL
