We’ve teamed up with SOG for this gift guide and picked out 5 outstanding choices for the person on your list this holiday shopping season. Whether they’re a fan of SOG or appreciate well-made, functional gear for their everyday carry, we’ve got you covered with these solid gift ideas.
Custom Engraved SOG Knives
SOG is probably best known for their quality pocket knives, making them a good place to start your gift shopping. SOG has continued to improve the quality and designs of their knives across the board to cater to EDC enthusiasts, outdoor adventurers, and uniformed professionals in the field alike. To take things to the next level, they offer custom engraving of text and logos on their blades too. The service is a great way to make the gift of being prepared that much more special with a touch of personalization.
SOG Flash AT Pocket Knife
For the knife nut on your list, consider one of our favorite SOG knives: the Flash AT. We’ve recommended it as one of the best pocket knives you can get today, especially if they appreciate the quick, satisfying action of assisted-opening knives. In addition to its snappy deployment mechanism, the Flash AT also features SOG’s AT-XR Lock. It’s ambidextrous, easy to use, and safely locks the knife from accidentally opening and keeps it locked in place even under hard use. The Flash AT’s 3.45“ D2 steel blade handles cutting and slicing tasks with ease thanks to its combination of versatile blade shape, cryogenically heat-treated edge retention, and titanium nitride coating for corrosion resistance. All this knife won’t weigh them down either thanks to its beautifully bold Civic Cyan GRN handles, with 10 styles available to fit your style and your carry.
SOG PowerAccess Deluxe
If they love practical gifts, it doesn’t get much more practical than a well-equipped multi-tool such as the PowerAccess Deluxe. With 21 tools, you can be sure that the DIYer on your list won’t be missing anything when they start their next project. They’ll get the usual suspects like needle-nose pliers, a plain edge blade and different kinds of screwdrivers along with heavier-duty newcomers like a wood saw, a serrated knife, and a jewelry driver. Unique to the PowerAccess Deluxe is its compound leverage system, which multiplies the user’s grip strength while using the pliers, reducing the amount of effort needed for a job well done. It comes in a sleek stealth black in high corrosion resistance 5Cr15Mov stainless steel, with a nylon sheath and 12-piece hex bit kit for an all-in-one DIY and EDC ensemble.
SOG Surrept 24 CS Daypack
There are plenty of reasons why commuting to work or school can be a drag for the person on your list—don’t let their backpack be one of them. SOG’s Surrept CS Daypack was designed to prepare the user for just about anything a hectic day might throw their way. At 24L in capacity, it’s sized just right for holding a full day’s worth of essentials in its slew of compartments. The main compartment boasts a padded laptop sleeve as well as a tablet pocket to keep their devices protected on the go. An admin panel on the front ensures their smaller essentials remain secure, organized, and within reach. The CCW-compatible backpack is built with 420D ripstop nylon for a tough yet lightweight carry experience, finished with 2-way lockable zippers for peace of mind when facing bad weather or traveling to parts unknown.
SOG PopGrip Tool
If the person on your list spends a little too much time on their phone, the least you can do is gift them something that’ll improve the experience while adding some extra functionality to their EDC to boot. SOG joined forces with the popular phone grip makers at PopGrip to produce this ingenuous accessory: it’s a phone grip and stand that’s equipped with an integrated mini multi-tool. The tool is held in place magnetically via SOG’s TwistMag latching system, keeping it secured when you don’t need it, and just one twist away when you do. The multi-tool boasts a slotted screwdriver that doubles as a pry tool, 1/4“ and 4mm hex bit slots, and a handy bottle opener. If you want a stocking stuffer that’s stuffed with features, the SOG PopGrip is a great choice.
SOG 35th Anniversary T-shirt
For the diehard SOG fans in your life, surprise them with some serious SOG swag. To celebrate 35 years of being in business, SOG is offering commemorative t-shirts. They didn’t phone it in with a boring logo design either. For this special occasion, SOG commissioned artist Karly Kennedy to do the design. The result is a beautiful composition that incorporates many symbols that represent SOG’s history and values. Imagery like an owl for wisdom, a snake as a nod to the MACV-SOG heritage, a third-eye to represent self-recognition, an hourglass for time, a halo for something everlasting, and a skull, which represents rebirth when paired with wings. The shirt itself is made from a blend of cotton, polyester, and rayon for a comfy fit the person on your list deserves.
And to even better match your EDC, the shirt is a perfect companion and tribute to SOG’s Vision XR LTE 35 Year Edition, a limited edition, serialized, and premium tanto blade. It comes with a 3.36″ CRYO CTS XHP bladedressed up with tiger stripes, and fits right in the theme of SOG’s landmark anniversary.
