SOG Mini Vulcan Tanto,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: SOG Specialty Knives & Tools VL-04 Vulcan Mini Tanto Knife, Satin (Tools & Home Improvement)
This is a great EDC pocket knife. It comes razor sharp and stays that way for quite some time. When the edge does need to be touched up, it is quick and easy to get it razor sharp again.
I think this is the perfect size for a pocket knife. The knife just feels solid with no free play at all and opens very smoothly. The arc lock locks up rock solid and when the blade is in the handle, it wants to stay folded up until you open the knife past a certain point. The bayonet style clip is the best in the business and allows the knife to be completely hidden when in your pocket. It is also reversible to either side. You couldn't ask for a better pocket knife.

A good EDC knife. A "slightly" smaller Vulcan tanto,

This review is from: SOG Specialty Knives & Tools VL-04 Vulcan Mini Tanto Knife, Satin (Tools & Home Improvement)
I now have both the SOG Specialty Knives & Tools VL-03 Vulcan Tanto Knife, Satin and this knife. I still like the larger version of the Vulcan Tanto but really it is too big for an every day carry. The blade at .16" also too thick for good lunch cutting work, ie it splits my apple before it cuts it. The blade on the smaller Vulcan knife is only slightly shorter, maybe a 1/2 inch of cutting surface. But it's also thinner which makes it more useful as an every day carry. Some reviewers have complained about the weight of the larger knife, I really don't notice the difference in my pocket. I also like my SOG Specialty Knives & Tools TWI-20 Twitch XL, Graphite Handle as an EDC, but that knife has an assisted open which gives people the wrong impression. It is faster to open than this knife, but for an EDC, quick opening to open a letter or cut the tape on a box isn't a high priority.
On the Twitch vs the Vulcan, the drop point of the Twitch is very handy for tip cutting work. The re-curve of the tanto blade of the Vulan hooks things like rope better. The Twitch is thinner, by about 1/2 the thickness but heavier. Both blades are the same thickness, .125" and the same effective cutting length. Both blades are tight in the hinge, no wiggling about. Either knife is a fine every day carry.

Great Knife I researched like crazy before buying...,

This review is from: SOG Specialty Knives & Tools VL-04 Vulcan Mini Tanto Knife, Satin (Tools & Home Improvement)
Very pleased with this knife! Shipped sharp out of the box, perfect size, great blade. After 12 hours of research into the best of many worlds into one knife, this has it (no serrated blade but have that on others). The blade to me is both a tanto and drop point mix. Has a slight curve on the straight part of the blade to help hold and cut rope and wire as well.
Thanks!
