Commemorate 40 years of SOG with the 40th Anniversary Fat Guard Bowie, a limited edition fixed blade for collectors, campers, and anyone who respects a legend. Based on SOG's original 1986 S1 Bowie, it recreates the fighting knives carried by MACV-SOG in Vietnam. Each knife is individually serialized, with its number from one through 500 etched into the butt end. The 6.1 inch clip point blade is AUS-8 steel wearing a black PVD coating, a pairing known for solid toughness, easy sharpening, and a finish that resists glare and wear. At 0.23 inches thick it carries the heft a Bowie demands for camp chores, heavy cutting, and the occasional show of force. A substantial guard and pommel frame the classic profile. A leather handle gives the knife a warm, authentic feel in the hand, and the included leather sheath keeps the 10.7 inch blade ready for the belt. It ships in a pine wood display case with a glass viewing lid, a one of a kind Zippo lighter, and authenticity documentation. Part working tool and part history lesson, this is a "bulletproof" tribute and a collector-grade centerpiece for any serious blade shelf.
