Item Title: SOG Specialty Knives Seal Knife 2000
After one of the most extensive testing and evaluation programs ever undertaken by the US Government that included knives from almost every major cutlery manufacturer in the USA, we are very proud to announce that the SOG SEAL Knife 2000 triumphed and has been declared the highest ranked knife among the US Navy Seals.
The Seals are probably the most specialized elite military group in the world today. Seals must undergo a rigorous training program that has been devised to produce the consummate warrior. Only a select few endure and are accorded the right to wear the SEAL Trident on their uniform.
This knife evaluation program included the following tests: Tip breaking strengths, blade breaking toughness, sharpness and edge retention, handle twist off limits, two week salt water immersion tests, gasoline and acetylene torch resistance, chopping, hammering, prying, penetration, cutting of 6 different types of rope and nylon line, low noise and reflectivity evaluation, plus an intense hands-on competition in the field.
The SEAL Knife 2000 can be securely carried in its waterproof Kydex sheath. This scabbard uses a friction fit as well as a backup nylon strap for knife retention, allowing you to carry it upside down or sideways. The SOG SEAL Knife 2000 is perhaps one of the most dramatic fixed blades on the market. You can be assured on this amazing knife that the SEALs have done their homework, so you don't have to.

Alternate Description
Over years of military experience Robert Hanna, currently an active duty Navy SEAL, witnessed a recurring theme: open blades are useful and necessary but dangerous to equipment and personnel. His own personal experience with this problem occurred while training where his platoon was deploying inflatable boats and themselves out of a fixed wing aircraft. Being new and the first one to the boat after it landed in the water, he began cutting away the rigging that attached the parachute to the boat with his knife. He punctured the back of the boat and put his squad at a great disadvantage for the rest of the night.
That experience coupled with countless stories of injuries to people and equipment led Rob to invent his patent pending GROOOOVE! He spent months of drafting and testing prototypes. This new innovation allows rope/line to be cut without unsheathing the knife. The Groove sheath is perfect for rescue situations where an open blade can be dangerous. The Groove sheath allows trapped people or animals to be freed from seat belts, rope tangles, or other similar situations with out exposing the trapped to a live blade and possibly causing a more frightening situation.
The new Groove sheath will be introduced on the SEAL Pup and SEAL Knife 2000 as an added feature at no extra cost and integrated into the new SOG Trident (TF-2) folding knife. Feel the Groove in 2004.
