These Gift Ideas From SOG Are Better in Black

These days, EDC gear comes in nearly every color combination you can imagine. But if there’s one color you can bet on, make it black. All-black gear is having its moment (it goes with everything!), but it’s been the go-to color theme for so many EDCers over the years, whether it’s for a tough tactical look or a low-profile minimalist setup. If you know the person on your list is into EDC gear but aren’t sure what to get them, our friends at SOG have lined up some of their best gift-worthy gear for this guide. One thing they all have in common is that they look better in black, and they’re sure to please anyone on your list looking to perfect their “all black everything” carry.


SOG Stout FLK Blackout

This blacked-out little chonker of a knife isn’t just a great gift, it’s a great EDC blade overall that anyone into gear can appreciate. It hits this nice balance of pocket-friendly yet capable with its well-proportioned “little big knife” design language, measuring just 3.77“ closed. The shorter 2.62” CRYO D2 steel blade may be stout, but it’s surprisingly robust and its clip point geometry maximizes the usable cutting edge to handle general EDC tasks.

Despite its smaller blade, it’s still easy to operate thanks to an enlarged thumbhole and rear flipper tab, offering multiple ways to deploy the blade. It locks into a sturdy steel frame lock to withstand heavy use, while black G10 scales and hardware round out the knife.

If you want to gift a capable knife that carries easily and discreetly, the Stout FLK Blackout is a great choice.

SOG Pillar Blackout

Maybe they’ve got their EDC knife situation sorted. Maybe, just maybe, they’d appreciate a blacked-out fixed blade to have the most badass knife on the campsite, or to complete their tactical bug out bag kit. Whatever they might use a fixed blade for, the SOG Pillar was designed to get it done. SOG worked with field professionals to optimize the blade for the most demanding critical missions a regular-sized EDC pocket knife can’t handle.

This American-made knife boasts a 5“ clip point blade in premium S35VN steel with a black Cerakote finish and linen micarta handles. To help them carry this 9.9” long, full-tang fixed blade, it comes with a Kydex sheath they can mount to their bag or carry rig of choice.

If you’re shopping for someone who appreciates a good knife, tactical gear, or spending time outdoors, don’t skip the Pillar Blackout.

SOG ParaShears Black

The EDCer on your list probably already knows how fun it is to put together an EDC. So if you think they’d enjoy assembling a new kind of kit, like a first aid kit, the SOG ParaShears are a great entry point.

Designed to meet the needs of first responders, this shears-based multi-tool is an excellent addition to a first aid kit or emergency bag. Some key functions include shears, a strap cutter, glass breaker, and multiple screwdrivers. The ParaShears also feature SOG’s Compound Leverage technology to make it even easier make cuts compared to your run-of-the-mill shears. They even fold up for maximum portability, making them especially versatile for the amount of space they take up.

If you’re shopping for someone who loves to be prepared, these blacked-out SOG ParaShears should do the trick this holiday season.
