Description

For our first Fusion tactical folding knife we wanted something that was progressive, and performance driven. The Salute is an acknowledgment that great design can still be affordable with a little perseverance. Take the machined G10 handles in combination with scalloped full-length steel liners for a whole new look. Add a big lockback, smooth as silk operation, and a proven Bowie style blade. For good measure, throw in our patent-pending new invention- a movable thumb stud so you can tailor the position to your own hands. We didn't forget to incorporate our trademark low carry bayonet clip either. The Salute pocket knife lives up to its name and is worthy of carry on any front in the world… including your back yard. 

GREAT FEATURES AND TRADITION "I purchased this knife because my family has a long history of military service and emergency services. We have all owned SOG knives and they have always performed in the worst of conditions and expectations. SOG will continue to be out "goto" knife down through the next generations." - Customer review, December 2021
