SOG SEAL Pup Knife Review & Demo-Urban Survival

This is a review and demonstration on the SOG SEAL Pup knife.

I've modified the sheath to make it into an urban survival knife by adding a fire steel rod, a sharpener, paracord, reflective and duct tape, and a fishing line and hook.

This knife is light, balanced, and tough. The blade is made of AUS 6 S/S, which makes it hard to get a good edge in the field. That said, it maintains an edge better than my carbon blade knives.

I'd recommend this knife to anyone looking for a decent camping/utility knife. A straight edge would be better for bushcraft, but for urban survival applications, the serrations will gnaw right through metals, plastics, nylons, and other synthetics with ease.

The protective sheath and managable size make this a safe knife for all skill levels.

Generally I don't like combination blades at all, but in this knife they just don't bother me. Like you said, not a huge bushcraft knife, more of an "all rounder". Great video man, I like some other stuff you have (like the wolverine)...

PS: are you canadian?

[envirosponsible]

@EnterTheMuffin I live in Canada currently though I don't call myself Canadian. Canada is a sales territory for the Corporation of Canada and I don't observe arbitrary boundaries made by corporations.

@jimmydewdle Thanks for the tip.

@Impulset0 If you want a gerber LMF II, you should look at the Gerber Bear Grylls Ultimate fixed blade, its the same knife with more perks, a better handle, and its also cheaper.

@prodieus Where do you see it for 49? At my Canadian tire it's going for 59! They're also selling the Gerber LMF2 infantry knife for $110. I'm thinking of picking that one up as well.

Great knife! Loved the review

[APhelps91]

i just got my knife for Christmas and to see what it is able to do makes me love it more nice review.

Driftworked you can buy the SOG seal pup at Canadian tire for $49.99 i was thinking of trying it out

[driftworld86]

living in canada has lots of drawbacks to ppl who's into knives. a KA-BAR that costs 40~60$ in USA costs for canadians extra 30 dollars due to shipping... after buying Kabar's 1213, Kershaw Skyline, Spyderco pacific salt + resilience, i'm bankrupt almost >< now i'm on fence between seal pup elite (costs me ~90$) or gerber big rock (costs 50$ at canadian tire)....
