Got my brand new S2 Trident in the mail yesterday and am impressed! :D It was quite different from what I expected, which is strange, because I have worn my eyes out looking on pictures of the Trident on the Internet.

It's a bit smaller than I expected, but that makes it more compact as well, and actually I like the size a lot. I was expecting a huge bowie, but the Trident has a blade and a handle that seem very right for everyday knife useage.

The blade is unbeliavingly thick and sharp. I bet I can cut off my finger in a snap with this one.

I can't wait to get off from work an try the Trident out - it will definitely come to good use in my care. I'm not a putting-the-knife-in-a-display-case kind of guy, but like to put my tools to the test. :cool:

rower,

I had exactly the same impression when I first received my SOG S1 Bowie, the near-twin of the S2 Trident. I couldn't help but think, "now isn't this a dainty sort of knife."

But over the past 2-1/2 years of use and abuse the Bowie hasn't lost that "small" feeling and remains my favorite SOG. Great "feel" in the hand, nice heft, excellent for skinning a pig, and the perfect piece of Tactical Tableware.

Congrats on your Trident, please keep us posted with your impressions.

Cheers,

Carl
