SOG Twitch II: "Cryogenic EDC" by Nutnfancy

Another winning SOG EDC blade. Like it's standard-setting Flash 1 stablemate, the Twitch II has the perfectly shaped full flat ground AUS-8 blade with cryogenic heat treat. It slices superbly, is perfectly sized for all kinds of utility tasks, and wears a decent edge. More importantly, it sharpens fast and readily. The assisted opening flipper design rocks and rockets the blade out fast. The safety is unneeded but present if you're paranoid about pocket deployment. Pocket clip is skeletonized and strong and carries deep enough. The aluminum handle scales are good looking and tough but don't provide much traction (which is ok for the POU). Weight is 2.4 oz and much less with the Lowe's plastic handled version of the Twitch II (which loosened up in hard use, shown). Lockup on this version is excellent. Value is adequate, maybe a bit more than other comparable capability blades. But with its ultimate thinness and speed you will fall in love with the Twitch II as it becomes a transparent part of your system. /////////////////Nutnfancy Likability Scale: Twitch II aluminum scales: 8.5 of 10; Twitch II Lowe's plastic scales: 7 of 10 as shown, 9 if solid lockup assured

THE BLADE WIGGLES ON THIS THING LIKE A FUCKING FROST KNIFE. yeah. i went there. frost knives. the shittiest brand of knives in history. i have frost knives that dont wiggle this much

again, i repeat it. does anyone else have this problem

[MrAeroshady]

@143yamaha yes all you have to do is get(a flat head screwdriver with the octagonal end i forgot the name sorry..and on one of the little silver things tighten it to your desire..recommend oiling it too

[meuberepic]

hey nutin, you are my favourite reviewer on youtube. i don't think you can have quality video without length, and so much of gear philosophy is the given persons thought process. you are amazing because you tell all the thought process and back up opinions with facts.

[143yamaha]

does anyone else have a ton of blade play (horizontal) on this?

[Kylef7735]

@143yamaha Exactly everything is good at somthing.

[143yamaha]

@Kylef7735 yes it is, but honestly, ive been carrying this lately. haha

[Kylef7735]

@143yamaha Thats just personal prefrence.

[Kylef7735]

I find the Kershaw Leek to be a better buy than the SOG Twitch; in terms of value. I have found the Kershaw Leek for half the price of the Twitch. To me, the SOG Twitch is not twice the knife as the Leek. Twitch might have better steel, but I can buy two Leeks for the cost of one Twitch. Two Leeks will last me longer than one Twitch for what I use them for. Just my opinion. I enjoy your gun and knife reviews.
