I have recently seen the new SOG Flash series of knives on-line. Has anyone had any experience with them. I love the Kershaw assisted opening, and wondered how SOG's performs. Looks like a nice package at a good price.

Thanks in advance.
 
All SOG products I used prior to my most recent Flash I purchase rated four out of four stars. I received my Flash I in the mail last Tuesday. My personal findings (Yours may be different), were that the spring which opens the blade is very weak. If you don't hold the knife just right when opening the blade (Which is difficult since it is so small), the blade only opens two-thirds of the way. Closing the blade is not smooth. I rate this knife one star out of four. My knife was returned yesterday. I would like to try the larger Flash II - maybe a larger blade with more weight would give better opening results.
I still would buy SOG products - I LOVE my Pentagon Elite.
 
Hi Scottsman,

The Flash is a new model for us. You may wish to visit the SOG Forum. There are some current Flash owners posting there.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.
 
I recently got a flash I and i really like it. It doesnt open as fast or hard as a chive, which to me is a good thing cause i feel as if i'm going to hurt myself with a chive. All and all its a good little knife. But i would say wait for the new Tini ones to come out. Thats a sweet looking knife. Oh and you cant beat SOG's warrenty and from all i've heard and read, they stand by it.
