Nice knife. Coletrane, I have a Sog gov tac and i was using it just like the Sog Flash 2 and The Pink Glove youtube video.
I didn’t know that the knife is only for cutting not for splitting wood with the tip:S. I used the tip to split soft wood and now my tip broke off.
About .2inch is gone, i can’t find the tip anymore. Do you know how I can fix my gov tac? The knife was brand new and 91$ :S.
Maybe i have to buy a sharpen stone and make a new tip myself?
I have started a thread on bladeforums.
Look by Manufacturer’s Forums and then SOG.
My name is itseasyforyou and thread title is SOG Gov-Tac question and photos.
Heh, a little weird holding my Pentagon and looking at this at the same time.
As i made quite clear, i have my Pg. now, but mine came with the new/old? sheath.
The only complaint i hold with it is that it is very slightly misaligned where the guard and the kraton meet.
Superb knife.
So how would you rate the sharpness of the knife? Would I have to take it to get Proffesionally sharpened after the buy? I am planning to buy a new one, Yes even at 135.00 had bad experience with buying used stuff in the past, you got lucky but I have bad luck.
Old comment is old, but srsly, you read my mind. I’ve been looking for a knife like this for years now. I just wish they still made the CRKT Merlin II sheath, then I could play for realsies.
I bought this knife when I was around 19. I’m 30 now and still have it. I beat the hell out of this knife and its still good. Mine is the older seki-japan type.

Good knife, and good review.
Yea this is the knife used in Hitman
By amitpaul, June 13, 2008 @ 9:57 pm
Would this knife be considered as a dagger? I’ve heard stories of police officers bending the definition a bit.
By coletrane811, June 14, 2008 @ 5:25 am
yes, this one is most likely illegal to carry because it’s double sided. check with the local police to be sure though.

it was pretty sharp, but could be sharper. if you can sharpen a knife, you’ll be alright.
