Frequently Asked Questions

What types of SOG knives are available from LA Police Gear?

The SOG category focuses on SOG brand knives, including folding knives and fixed blade styles such as straight blade tantos. Availability can vary by current inventory, so shoppers can compare the live selection by carry style, blade type, and intended use.

Are SOG knives suitable for law enforcement or duty carry?

SOG has a tactical heritage tied to the MACV-SOG-inspired Bowie design and is marketed toward demanding field and professional use. For duty carry, choose a model that fits your hand, carry method, agency policy, and local knife laws.

What is SOG Assisted Technology on the Flash knife line?

SOG Assisted Technology, or S.A.T., is described on the page as a system used in the Flash knife line for quick blade access. The page also notes a piston lock that can be released with a sliding button.

How should I choose between a SOG folding knife and a fixed blade?

A folding knife is generally easier to carry in a pocket, pouch, or duty bag for everyday cutting tasks. A fixed blade or straight blade style may be preferred for field work, outdoor use, or heavier utility tasks where quick deployment and a rigid design are priorities.

What should buyers consider before choosing a SOG knife?

Consider size, weight, blade type, folding versus fixed blade design, grip comfort, and how the knife will be carried. The right choice should fit your hand, match your task, and comply with applicable laws and workplace or department rules.
