SOG Flash II AO Folder Black GRN Handle Partially Serrated AUS-8 Drop Point Blade SOG-FSA-98

At the core of this knife is a 3.5" drop point blade crafted from AUS-8 stainless steel. Known for its balance of toughness, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening, AUS-8 is a trusted steel that performs well under regular use. The blade features a hardcased titanium nitride finish that adds an extra layer of wear resistance while reducing glare, giving it a low-profile, purpose-driven look. A partially serrated edge adds versatility, making it easier to handle rope, webbing, and tougher fibrous materials without sacrificing clean slicing capability on standard cuts.

The Flash II’s assisted opening mechanism ensures rapid, one-handed deployment when it matters most. With a simple push of the thumb stud, the blade springs into action smoothly and securely, locking into place with confidence. The liner lock mechanism keeps the blade stable during use, providing added safety and reliability.

The handle is made from glass-reinforced nylon (GRN), offering an excellent blend of strength, impact resistance, and lightweight performance. Finished in matte black, the handle provides a discreet, tactical appearance while maintaining a secure grip in a variety of conditions. At 4.5" closed length and weighing just 3.1 oz., this knife carries comfortably in pocket or pack without unnecessary bulk.

Measuring 8" overall with a blade thickness of 0.13", the Flash II strikes a strong balance between cutting power and portability. It’s slim enough for everyday carry but robust enough to handle demanding tasks when called upon. Whether you’re on the job, outdoors, or handling daily utility work, this folder is designed to keep up without hesitation.
