Versatile Construction Meets Military-Grade Needs
The F03T-N is versatile enough to function as a small machete, a limb saw or a hammer. The 9.5-inch, 420 stainless steel blade features a section of small serration near the hilt that can be used to make precise cuts. On the back of the blade is a long, deeply serrated section, which is ideal for sawing through dense foliage. The knife handle features hammer checkering on the bottom for precise placement when pounding, and a scratch-resistant black oxide finish reduces reflectivity.

Ergonomic, Lightweight Design Ensures Comfortable Use
Even if your blade is sharp, it's hard to make precise cuts if your knife doesn't fit comfortably in your hand. That's why this knife features a unique, molded Kraton handle. The handle features SOG's unique Digi-Grip texturing, which gives you gripping power where you need it most. And at just 14 ounces, the F03T-N is lightweight and easy to carry anywhere.

This knife is backed by a lifetime warranty that protects against defects in manufacturing and materials.

This review is from: SOG Specialty Knives & Tools F03T-N Jungle Primitive, Black Hardcased (Tools & Home Improvement)

Very high quality; well balanced handling; solid feel and construction; VERY, VERY sharp right out of the box. Sheath is tightly sewn and has an attached pouch that makes for a very good gun clip holder. Knife will not bust through the sheath. I haven't seen this knife for less than $75 in my local retail stores that sell SOG products. Great for adventure camping.

Tip bent within the first few strikes on a branch!
Not intended for serious use IE: camping or "THE JUNGLE".
I will be getting a KBAR for sure.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great prop, horrible knife., December 31, 2010

This review is from: SOG Specialty Knives & Tools F03T-N Jungle Primitive, Black Hardcased (Tools & Home Improvement)

This knife looks very cool and mean and I think it was a smart move by the SOG marketing team. Would make a great prop in a Rambo movie or something similar. But for anyone who knows even a little about steel and knives in general, this piece is plain JUNK. The steel is horrible and is as cheap and low quality as you can find. The blade is thin and very easily damaged/broken. The balance is also bad. This is not a useful knife at all in that it loses it's edge just by looking at it and the light-weight flexible blade is horrible for trying to chop anything. The saw-teeth on the back are also useless in that you can't actually saw anything with them.

Don't get me wrong with this review... I'm a big SOG fan and own several of their products. (Trident, Seal Team). But the knives I own and like are made much better with much better materials. The Jungle Primitive is just plain junk and should be avoided like the plague by any real knife owners looking for a useful blade.
