SOG Trident Mini AO Folder Black GRN W/Groove Handle Black TiNi PS Clip Point Blade SOG-TF-21

The SOG Trident Mini AO Folder Throwback Edition takes a proven tactical design and refines it into a compact, everyday-carry-friendly format that’s built for speed, control, and dependable performance. Designed for users who want a lightweight folder that still delivers serious utility, this mini Trident brings assisted-opening convenience and rugged materials together in a streamlined, no-nonsense package.

At the core is a 3.15" clip point blade crafted from AUS-8 stainless steel, a trusted steel known for its balanced combination of toughness, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. Heat treated to an HRC of 57-58, it delivers consistent edge performance that holds up well under regular use while remaining simple to maintain in the field or at home. The blade is finished in a hardcased black TiNi coating, enhancing wear resistance and reducing glare while giving it a bold, tactical appearance built for real-world use.

The clip point blade shape offers excellent versatility, featuring a fine, controllable tip that excels in precision tasks while still providing strong piercing capability when needed. With a blade thickness of 0.11", the design maintains a slim, responsive feel without sacrificing durability, making it ideal for users who want a knife that moves quickly and handles everyday cutting tasks with ease.

The assisted opening mechanism ensures fast, one-handed deployment, allowing the blade to spring into action smoothly when needed. It’s designed for reliable, repeatable performance, giving you immediate access without hesitation. Once open, the blade locks securely, providing confidence and stability during use across a wide range of tasks.

The handle is constructed from glass-reinforced nylon (GRN) with a grooved texture pattern, finished in matte black for a clean, tactical look. The groove design improves grip security and control, helping the knife stay firmly planted in hand even in challenging conditions. A unique cutout in the handle allows you to cut cord, fishing line, or seatbelts while the blade is still closed. Despite its durability, the handle remains lightweight and comfortable, contributing to the knife’s overall easy-carry nature.

At just 7.18" overall and 2.25 oz., the Trident Mini is built for discreet, effortless carry. It slips easily into a pocket or pack while still offering enough blade length to handle everyday cutting jobs with confidence. It’s a compact tool designed for users who value efficiency without excess bulk.

The SOG Trident Mini AO Folder Throwback Edition delivers black TiNi AUS-8 clip point steel, grooved black GRN handle, assisted opening speed, and ultra-light compact tactical EDC performance.
