The Best SOG Products to Give Dads this Father's Day

For 35 years now, SOG has been making innovative everyday carry knives, tools, and gear that suits the needs of the community with an eye towards constant improvement. They know a thing or two about what men want and how they use their gear, which makes SOG uniquely suited to be your one-stop shop of choice when you’re looking for a gift for your dad this Father’s Day season. In this guide we’ll round out some of our favorite EDC-friendly gifts your dad will appreciate, some of which can even be engraved with a personalized message of your choice to truly make his Father’s Day gift something extra special.


For the Classy Dad: Ultra XR - Carbon & Gold

If your dad always looks sharp and keeps it classy, this is the perfect EDC knife for him. The Ultra XR ultra sleek, impossibly thin, but it gets the job done. As SOG’s premium EDC folding knife in their new line of XR Lock knives, it offers one-handed operation and solid lockup even during rough use. This particular knife has an attractive contrasting look that juxtaposes the lightweight carbon fiber handle and a premium CPM-S35VN stainless steel clip point blade treated with a gold tone blade wash that makes it even more resistant to corrosion in the long run.

If your dad loves tactical gear, he’ll appreciate this EDC knife designed for active duty pros in the field. This is a limited-edition serialized everyday carry knife of which only 500 have been made, featuring a sleek ‘wolf grey’ G10 handle colorway and a 3.4" cyrogenically heat-treated D2 tool steel blade. The knife has partial serrations, allowing the user to cut through cord and other rough material quickly, which is especially useful to have in an emergency situation.

For the Practical Dad: Terminus XR LTE - Carbon & Graphite

For the reliable dads who take care of business and get the job done no matter what, get him a versatile knife to match, like the SOG Terminus XR LTE. This lightweight “LTE” edition of the crowd-favorite Terminus XR knife features an updated design that utilizes lightweight carbon fiber scales and a sleeker handle with improved ergonomics and grip during a cut. At just 2.2 ounces in weight total, this is a knife that isn’t too hefty for pocket carry, and with its strong XR lock and flipper opening it’s a highly capable knife that cuts especially well while holding a keen edge thanks to its CPM-S35VN stainless steel composition.
