Awesome collections posted. I've just started getting into the SOG's. I have 4. Question, did the older Powerlocks (larger tool) not have locking tools like the smaller Powerplier?
Scott
A brief timeline:
The original geared compound leverage tool from SOG was the Power Plier. A bit later they brought out a smaller version, called the Pocket Power Plier. Neither of these had locking blades. Then came the PowerLock in 1998, which was the first tool from SOG that did have locking blades. Shortly after the introduction of the PowerLock, SOG discontinued the original Power Plier.
Hope that helps! :)

Gareth: The gear scratch on you P3 is interesting, it always seems weird to me that the gears can scratch the plier head.
Allan: If I come across a case of Blackie Collins sheaths for the Paratool you will be the second to know! And I'm right there with you the Power Plier is my favorite also.
Here are my PowerLocks: My favorite is 5th from the left.

And a group picture:

I know this is a multitool forum but the 2 black handle knives are a AutoClip and Mini Autoclip made from BG-42 steel. This incredible steel is kinda interesting so here is some info on BG-42:
(http://i1126.photobucket.com/albums/l615/bmarian12/42brochure.jpg)
I have one Power Plier that has a Quality Control problem...I think it is my only Power Plier made in Lynnword. The plier head might have been stamped "SOG..." incorrectly since the G and USA are missing but the sides of the plier head are parallel.

Hmmm, I'm looking at your pointy-tipped Pocket Power Plier. (photo below) It is just like mine, with the new plier head (pointy tips, a larger wire cutter section, etc) and round-head pivot screws. Also the handles on mine have a brushed finish, like SOG used to put on their tools a long time ago.
I wonder why the changes? :think:

These flaps seem to be a pain. I keep trying to close the blade and the other tools without opening the flaps first. ;)

It is funny; I was expecting a smaller multitool, not something in the same class as the Supertool and the Swisstool. Maybe I need to buy a smaller SOG now..

The 1/4 inch drive version of the SwitchPlier indeed came first. :salute: I suspect you may be correct regarding that warranty claim / sticker theory. :-\
Post by: David on November 05, 2011, 04:06:37 AM
Thanks David :) Any signs that the PPP might have been polished up by some previous owner after leaving the factory? (the partially "erased" stampings make me ask)

Bob, I went and looked it over a little closer and it is a possiblity. There seems to be other hints of a little to much time on the buffing wheel. But the inside of the handles appear to be satin finished also. I went and looked at my PowerPliers which V1 matte V2 satin V3 satin from Edmonds, Wa.. The PP satins are similar to the PPP. With the exception the the stamps are a little better. Altho one of them has a light stamp. At this point I cant say for sure. I`ll study it some more when I have more time.

It has a good distressed finish and is assembled with dowels instead of nails/screws. I love little things like dowel construction over nails/screws. :)

I also like alot the old folder (Fielder) that I had too, ::)
I wish I didn't give that one away but I know its new owner uses it a lot and enjoys it :salute:
I also like the red dot of the other 2 folders (safety? ???) and that you have all the odd one (Baton, Sync, etc. :ahhh)
Post by: gerleatherberman on July 02, 2018, 03:16:46 PM
The red dots are blade safeties and those two knives need them. Especially the Trident Elite (one with strap cutter), since the springs are so strong. :ahhh
The oddball SOGs are some of the later additions. I just need the Baton Q1 and Q4 to complete the set, but that will have to wait for other paychecks.

It was filthy, but cleaned up well. You can see from the pictures in the listing that I thought I was in for a big-time restoration.
It just needed some good cleaning skill. :woohoo:

Received one of my "grail SOGs" today. U.S.A OG Switchplier. I was pleasantly surprised when, what I thought were rust marks, came off with a deep silicone oil cleaning. The MT appears to have been carried little and never used.

Those Batons are really the most innovative MT in the currect SOG lineup. Much like the Sync I & II belt buckle MTs. They do stick out among the other SOG MT designs. :)

:o :oThank you, TP! It really is extraordinary in its' design and execution. Why they discontinued it, I don't know. The action of the little plier system is soooo smooth. Similat to a bigger SOG. The modern crosscut feels gritty and stiff in comparison. :)

ANOTHER OG SwitchPlier. Thought I'd pick a cheap(little bit used) extra of this tool. I know the pliers are a bit weak, but I think this will pair well with a SAK. :)
1st pic: not cleaned yet and hanging would with other SwitchPliers. 8)
2nd and 3rd pics: the tool after cleaning and a few minutes with a black sharpie (permanent market..haha).
4th pic: added to the "beater tool" cigar box. All of these have a great or mint condition sibling in the collection(except the blue LM-knockoff). :facepalm:
Post by: gerleatherberman on July 21, 2018, 06:02:14 AM
The main reason I wanted this one is the awesome plier head. I pictured it with another PowerPlier(newer rounded pliers).

Thanks Fuzzy... I think I know what you mean... finishing on the tools seems not as good as on modern ones... the metal material (at least) on the blade (though I like the PE blade V-grind) looks softer than modern ones... I sharpened it quicker than sak blades... but maybe this is just me... :cheers:

I've got my next paycheck MT money spent, but will definitely be looking out for a V.3. :salute:
I might have missed some differences in between the 3 PP versions I have, I took an in-depth overview on them and this is what I found, :salute:
The one with the lanyard (on the left) is the newest one, I am inclined to believe, and I think none of them have been modded :tu:
From L to R:
Plier head:
a. very rounded and polished plier head, without any sharp corner, all the jaw's edges are chamfered, these are the longest and slimmest
b. rounded tips and pliers, but not as much as the first one, there is less chamfering/rounding on the far back of the jaws, closer to the pliers, and it is not as long and slender as the newer jaws, but not as short and stubby (blunt) as the oldest ones :think:
c. squared ends, defined edges and sharper, straighter corners and lines on all of the jaws and pliers, they are also shorter and stubbier
(https://i.imgur.com/dDegNFl.jpg)
(https://i.imgur.com/1DKQvOa.jpg)
Saw and tools:
a. the newest one (left) has a 1/4" driver, a flathead ended file, much coarser, and a saw with much finer teeth
b. the old one has a round-end file, Robertson screwdriver and a wide teeth saw
c. the oldest one has the same saw, same Robertson driver but the file is an even older version of the flathead ended file, I believe previous to the round file (ignore the wear on the file)
(https://i.imgur.com/AlJ69B7.jpg)
Handles:
they seem to be the same on the three, the newest one (now on the center) has a lanyard attachment that the other two lack, I believe it came like this from factory, ???, and the screws are the same (Hexagonal) on all there :)
(https://i.imgur.com/mh6qduk.jpg)
so, with no absolute certainty, I am pretty sure that the changes have been:
Version 1: wide teeth, Robertson, flat file, thick stubby squared jaws
Version 2: wide teeth, Robertson, round file, thick stubby somewhat rounded and chamfered jaws
Version 3: small teeth, 1/4" driver, flat file, thinner slimmer rounded and chamfered jaws, adds a lanyard ring attachment
that is not an undebatable statement, and any modding of the tools would change that, but it's what I've come to believe after this exploration of my three PowerPliers :cheers:

that's a rare one to find, and when somebody asks (quite frequently in the forums) for a bladeless tool I always spit out the classics (Victorinox Jetsetter, Gerber Dime, Gerber Bladeless MP600, etc.) but I never mention this one because it's really expensive and hard to find, :P

Not sure about dates, but I got my last one about 2010-ish and that was still the old style pliers and solid hex screws, so after that? TP might know? :think:

I am inclined to believe that one is second generation (first Gen being PE blade, round end file, no lanyard ring, second Gen being PE, squared end file, lanyard ring, new style head and screws, and third Gen being 50/50 blade, squared end file, new style head and new pivot screws, lanyard ring :think:) that is, not the first but not the latest one.
But I am not sure :ahhh :dunno:
Post by: Dutch_Tooler on October 03, 2018, 10:19:28 PM
If mine originally came with a lanyard ring, it no longer has it...
BTW here I went hoping for a better file than on the PAD. It is, just slightly, but not much... ::) No LM or Vic quality by far.
Post by: ThePeacent on October 04, 2018, 08:50:01 PM

OK, so I am not an expert and definitely not good at dating, but
it has new style plier tip (pointier instead of rounded), thus it is China production and not old USA. It has Allen screws so it's also an indicator of Chinese made, what means it's post 2007 :salute: I think SOG introduced their gear covers in 2009, so if it has them, it must be post 2009. Yours doesn't.
It's an S44 model (does not have 1/4" driver socket) so it's still in production, that would make yours a 2007 to 2018 made model? :dunno:
sorry I cannot narrow it down more but a you probably know SOG doesn't keep much info of their own changes and updates, it even took Chako quite an effort to know that the PPP was introduced in 1998 :P

Just had time to read the wiki page, which confirms your general timeline except for the gear cover. No gear cover, but China model pliers and pivot screws - that would put it at ca. 2007-2009, wouldn't it? :dunno:
Just curious, nothing crucial for me to know ;)
AFAIK the PPP never came with gear overs, no matter what model or generation is it ???

And the Powerlock may be better finished and nicer to look at, but its handling of bit sets is inferior (almost useless 90° position of bit driver due to handle cover being in the way and orientation to the inside of the handle, thus requiring opening of pliers...)

third from the left it's like SOG said "Hey, let's see how many "SOGs" can we put on the tool", and tried to write it in every corner, but for the next gen someone came and said "whoa whoa, back up guys :o, we gotta remove some of the lettering there :dunno:. So much stamping of the brand will eventually remove too much material to the point where it weakens the structure of the pliers :ahhh"

You're so right. Maybe next time they can do an intricate pattern all over the pliers. Even complete with plier teeth that are shaped like "SOG". :D

MMR, its a SOG-branded Paladin PT-540 multi-tool. This one is dedicated to telephony/IT work. My supervisor 'gifted' all the 'field techs' with one. This one; is no-longer made under this trademark, or SOG. I wish SOG would re-issue it under their branding again. These are becoming 'high-dollar' collectors. Comes with both the punch-down bit for 66-blocks, and BIX. Also has scissors, screwdrivers, and the 'usual suspects'. Leatherman should note this, because if they made a 'IT-dedicated tool' it would-be a super-seller! :D
It’s an awesome looking multitool for sure.
LM used to (I don’t know if they still do) make a version of the Squirt that had a wire stripper instead of the usual pliers.
If it’s any good, I don’t know, apart from that I don’t think leatherman has made any MTs dedicated towards electrical work

Bear and Son makes a fairly good electrical tool. The 155EL. The tool locking system is lame, but the unlock bat can be removed and still allow locking/unlocking by lifting the adjacent tool.

Hmm....it doesn’t seem like the soSmurfpillst dictatorship called the E.U. will not allow its citizens the freedom to buy Bear and Son knives locally.....looks like we have to order them from the US and have some bald eagles fly them over here...

Just arrived , my first SOGs , don't know what type they are but I'm sure somebody will tell me. :hatsoff:
The smaller one is a late model SOG CrossCut (they also made a similar MT with pliers called the CrossGrip).
If you take a photo showing the tool components someone may be able to tell you what the larger one is.
