Possibly not fake. The original price is about correct, and some SOG stuff is made in China according to sources like Wiki and SOGknives.com... I get most of my China-made Fenix and Nitecore stuff from Aliexpress and it's always been genuine, but I'm careful about sellers - This place has a good number of sales and pretty good feedback. Looks alright to me, but Caveat Emptor always applies....
I've heard that sog is now made in China. I heard it was sold on aliexpress. But its a fishing shop , interesting ...
I don't think it's meant to imply a fishing shop... Dakou means saw-gashed, referring to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut-out_(recording_industry)'Dakou' was/is basically black market imports of foreign (ie, Western) music in the 1990s, which later gave rise to China's own rock music scene. Even today it has cool 'underground' tones, as it developed within a strong Communist regime and was the only way kids could get to hear things like Metallica, Nirvana and Joy Division. https://www.tinymixtapes.com/column/100-flowers-introduction?page=showhttps://radii.co/article/photo-of-the-day-dakou-generationSo I'd guess the name is basically the same idea as Rock Chicken or Punk Hedgehog.
Thank you very much! I will probably order from here. Black powerpint looks very nice.
For the price, it's probably worth a punt. Let us know how it turns out... if it's good quality, I might be tempted to try one myself!
Well, I've got a satin finish (2 actually), but that black really looks nice with a savings of around $20.00 too.Might have to look into one.
I've always used victorinox and leatherman. I am thinking of buying (sog) for the first time. I have doubts about the quality. I hope this seller sells original sog.
What is bo? I'm curious about your opinions on powerpoint. I will have the product in a few days
I have also seen BO as Black Oxide coating, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_oxide
I doubt it will kill you, but I would not use it, just in case you end up ingesting any of the coating. This may or may not help : https://ehslegacy.unr.edu/msdsfiles/24766.pdf
I ordered. I will share my thoughts when it arrives. probably in 2 weeks
I had two ordered : One black powerpint, and a silver powerlitre. Apparently the seller doesn't know what black means. however, it seems perfectly genuine
it sure cannot : the bit storage is taller than the sheath
looks crooked. other than that everything is fine. just annoying... it's okay to use
Very nice in black, I am eager to get mine since the other one came in silver Mine is a little misaligned too, but that's not uncommon for this type pliers, most of my MP400s are, so is my SOG powerlock I think
