New SOG Tool- PowerDuo
« on: January 18, 2012, 04:13:35 AM »
As Nikos said in the other thread, SOG does indeed have a new multitool coming out, and it should be available in a month or so.  It's the PowerDuo, and here are a few pics we took of both the silver and black versions:

















































Pretty sweet huh?

And according to Chris, the PowerDuo is pretty far along on the production schedule. Both the regular and the black finish models should be available in late March/early April :)

Is it my sick, twisted imagination??  Or has SOG been snooping around the Victorinox and Wenger plants?? :think:

I saw this one last year but I was sworn to secrecy about it.  At the time, my first thought was that it is a combination One Handed Trekker merged with a Pocket Power Plier.

I actually like this tool, and I think it's great to see SOG finally putting out a new tool.  The Power Assist was a nice tool but it was really little more than a variation on the PowerLock, and this is the first all-new tool to come out of them in a long time.
