SOG Spec Elite I Black Plain AUS-8 Aluminum Button Lock Automatic SE-52

Built for uniformed professionals, the SOG Spec Elite I is a smaller, easier to carry version of its counterpart the Spec Elite II. Retaining an easy to conceal, slim profile makes this a perfect choice for professional work or daily carry. Built tough, the Spec Elite I is a small yet capable automatic folding knife. This version comes with a black TiNi coated, plain edge AUS-8 stainless steel blade and black aluminum handle.

Brand new, direct from SOG Knives.

Blade: Durable, corrosion resistant Japanese AUS-8 stainless steel is finished with a hard coated, black TiNi for a discreetly non-reflective look. A classic clip point profile is paired with a high saber grind delivering powerful piercing and slicing performance while retaining good toughness. Powered by a coil spring mechanism the blade deploys with lightening speed automatically at a touch of the button.

Handle: Lightweight and durable, the Coffin shaped, black hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handles are chamfered for comfort and have milled texture and jimping for a secure grip. A simple yet robust button lock mechanism delivers secure lockup with a slide safety on the opposite side to avoid unintentional deployment while carrying yet allowing for fast deployment when needed.

Carries via a reversible, tip-up only, stainless steel deep carry pocket clip.

Japanese AUS-8 Stainless Steel: a low carbon, high chromium stainless steel offers excellent balance of performance: it has good toughness, corrosion resistance and sharpening response with similar edge retention to 440C.
