For any of you who are not yet familiar with SOG, the legend actually started in Vietnam. MACV-SOG was a United States special ops unit that was highly classified. Back then; SOG was short for Studies and Observation Group.MACV-SOG members were carrying a distinctive combat knife when engaged in covert missions in the jungle. In 1986, Spencer Frazer was a young designer who was inspired enough by that knife to become the founder of SOG Specialty Knives. It was his mission in life to be successful at paying tribute to those special ops members by reproducing that SOG Bowie knife from Viet Nam.  To this day, real men carry SOG knives into seriously challenging circumstances, knowing that they have been honored as the knife preferred by Navy SEALS, and that they’re also US Army Special Forces field-proven.
