GBI have tried 5 times to get an updated… I have tried 5 times to get an updated status on my order. 4 of those times I sent message and never got a response. Called the 5th time to and was on hold listening to a recording for an hour. Absolutely no customer service whatsoever. Will never order from this company again.

GBWaranty not worth the paper it was written on. Apperantly they have been bought by a company galled GSM group. My SOG powerlock needs a little love so i called them up. The original warranty stated that sog of course covers manufacturer defects. They also stated that their lifetime warranty also covered labor and that they would adjust ot and replace any broken tools in it for life. GSM now says they "only have to honor the warranty as it was when it was sold" then refuse to do anything because they say it was "normal wear and tear" and offer a discount on a new tool. So basically, they do NOT honor the original warranty. (And its mot like i wasn't prepared to pay for the broken pieces)

GBDon't buy a SOG Don't trust this company, I bought a SOG while in the US. Th equality is questionable, the blades were blunt the file is fake and the pliers mechanism is crunchy. Several tries to contact the company have gotten me nowhere, they don't respond to email or their own contact page. they have been described as "shady " in another review but they have long passed that, they are just trading on the name and taking money for nothing but cheap tat.

GBI recently purchased a SOG SEAL XR… I recently purchased a SOG SEAL XR fixed knife from SOG. The knife is excellent and it would hold up in a combat situation. The sheath is another matter all together. SOG's kydex sheath's are made in China. If the sheath is inferior in quality to what it carries, then it will fail under stress. If SOG is going to advertise their knives are made in the United States then they should also convey their sheath's are made in a communist country; a country that makes inferior products! Your selling your knives to active duty personnel, veterans, etc... For a $300.00 knife you would think everything would be of the highest quality. Not a company saving a few dollars on a sheath because their cheaper to make in a communist country. Those dollars your saving could lead up to the sheath failing when a veteran or police officer needs it the most! The customer service for SOG is not great either. I waited for a call back for 2.5 hours. They have no problem with taking your money immediately, but the return policy is time consuming and you have to pay to return their knive's and piece of s..t sheath's. I give SOG customer service and their products 0 stars. Thomas Eddings Retired USMC Martial artist 45 years.

GBI've been a SOG knife owner for over 10… I've been a SOG knife owner for over 10 years. From my first Trident to the latest Trident, I have purchased 6 knives, 2 keychains and a tabletop sharpener. All are first rate quality especially the USA made OTS Automatic I bought last year from SMKW in Sevierville, TN. Saving my mad money for their OTF Automatic.
