    I tried an onion and ketchup on a sog I have, it did nothing to it (atleast 3 hours) ?
    I think I'm going to use another knife maybe a smith and wesson, blade material is diffrent on it.

    Can you imagine what she say you did what !!!! And then sleeping on the sofa eating canned ravioli for a week lol

    So my knives seem to be stainless (some maybe high carbon)
    So I'll put a drop of ketchup on all of them, then in a couple hours I'll check them lol

    SOG Flash II and Trident are the main ones i use. Carry the Flash every day, and the Trident is either in my truck or on my life vest for kayak fishing.

    Sure they're made in China, but they work well enough for me. I use them alot in salt water striper fishing from my kayak. They hold up well to the salt, and I love the spring assist. Line cutter is great for fishing too, can leave the knife attached to my vest and still cut line.

    Hmm you're right. Seems some are made in the USA apparently, which incidentally are where the one's I have were made.
