SOG Celebrates Milestone Anniversary with Limited-Edition Collectible Knife
Inspired by SOG’s flagship knife, the original S1 Bowie that launched the company in 1986, the 40th Anniversary Fat Guard Bowie is a modern take on the legendary covert fighting knives used by the MACV-SOG (Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group).
Available in a limited run of just 500 individually serialized knives, each with numbers one through 500 etched into the butt end, this exclusive release is a collector’s item like no other. Featuring a 6.1-inch clip-point AUS 8 steel blade that resists corrosion and holds its edge, a protective polished black PVD finish, and an ergonomic stacked leather handle.
The knife also comes with a commemorative SOG 40th anniversary Zippo lighter, a rugged black leather sheath that stores the included sharpening stone in a convenient external snap pocket, a certificate of authenticity, and an anniversary plaque. All items are presented in a handcrafted pine display case featuring a glass viewing lid, creating a timeless keepsake destined to become the centerpiece of any collection.
