I think the Desert Dagger is my all time favorite knife. On the few I've seen the fit and finish is flawless. I love the balance of the knife, it truely feel's alive in the hand.

one day...

:(
 
I have been kicking myself for letting the limited stacked-leather handle Desert Dagger get bought out from under me at Plaza Cutlery. I waited too long, if I just didnt spend any money on food that month I could have bought it in time to save it!! ....sob.....sob:(


Sweet knife!:D

The Desert Dagger is a great knife.:) Picked on up the summer and love it. Not only is it really beautifull, it's also a good user.:D Took it camping with me in October. It slices food really well. You should also check out the Government/Government Agent. It too is a sweet knife. Am fondling it right now.:D

Shhh, don't mention that knife around here cause Ron is liable to post a pic of it.:):p (Hint, Hint)

...Sorry, Ron, but I just HAD to.:D.
 
SOGman99 beat me to the draw! The Desert Dagger is a highly elegant and truly well balanced knife (as is the Government). I, too, would love a leather handled model. Maybe someday! :)
 
This is one nice combo for the Desert Dagger

In the Probert Encyclopaedia http://www.probertencyclopaedia.com/F6B.HTM the Desert Dagger is described as ''an American military knife developed to provide a more versatile tool than a regular dagger-type fighting knife.''

In 1995 Duncun Long even once wrote ''With the dagger style knives, the SOG Patriot (also known as the Desert Dagger) is my first choice''. http://www.prairienet.org/guns/media/scripts/6-27-95.htm

Well, you can't go wrong with the SOG Desert Dagger. I second what Duncan Long wrote.

I found this rather strange line drawing of the Desert Dagger http://www.discountknivesonline.com/desertdagger.htm
See if you can spot the difference. Perhaps Ron could tell us if there's one such Desert Dagger around some place.

Krizzard,
You DO have some sources, don't you!?!?:eek:

That handle is similar to the leather one, but drawn in the "Kraton" grip pattern.
I just got a Desert Dagger - VERY nice! It is similar in some ways to the old Gerber Mk II, but with a more comfortable grip, and slimmer profile.

I'd really like a leather one. I let the leather government get away (I sold it for twice what I paid...), but would like the leather dagger... hint... hint... hint...;)
 
BobbyB: But of course we have resources. Then again aren't we all SOG men here ;-)
About the Desert Dagger, yes it would appear that you have indeed answered correctly.
Mmmmm... Yes indeed, nothing like the sweet smell of fresh new leather.

Krizzard, out.
