A friend of mine found out that I've been eyeing the Magnadot so he ordered one online and mailed it to me. Twas waiting for me last night when I got off of work.

This knife is SWEET! :D It has a Modified Clip point Bowie blade with dual finger ramps and dual thumb studs. The blade is just under 3/16ths of an inch thick and shaving sharp. The handle is large and fills my hand well. My Buck 110 and SOG X-42 Auto clip were big, but this bad boy is even bigger.:eek: :D

Lock up is solid with no blade blade and the action is smooth. It gets better the more I opening it. The Fit finish and grinds are excellent, just what I'd expect from SOG.

The dual finger groves/ramps help provide a wide range of grips. and make it much easier to choke up on the knife for skinning or other delicate tasks. The Serations are very sharp and will make rope cutting really easy.

This knife comes with a Black Nylon pouch wich holds it quite well. It's even setup for Vertical and Horizontal carry. Wish is really great to have IMO.

I'm supprised that this knife doesn't get more publicity on the Forums. It's a great inexpencive Tank of a knife. You guys should really check it out,:cool:

Right on brother! I purchased a Magandot back in `97 for around $50 and I have to say for a Zytel-handled folder, it is a tank!! Very, very solid lockup, thick blade (0.16"...that`s thick for a folder), and good overall fit and finish. Certainly a very underrated knife.

Nice!:) Do you still use and carry yours? Mine is now on my BOB ready for when I go out of town for Christmas. :)
 
Don`t really use it that much...occasionally use it for some light cutting from time to time.
 
The Magnadot is an underrated knife!
Congratulations Heber, to have a friend like that!!! I owe him thanks too! ;)
Enjoy the knife,

Wow, this is the oldest thread that I've seen be brought back up.

Though I am glad that the Magnadot is getting more publicity.
