Kabar makes a good knife and I think most people like their nighthawk's but the SOG has gotten some poor reviews, namely this one http://www.cutleryscience.com/reviews/seal_2000.html by Cliff Stamp. I would suggest that in a relativley dry environment the kabar takes the cake but in a wet one the nighthawk would be superior. Although of the two I have found Kabar's design to be more geared to fighting than to general use. My biggest dislikes of this design is that nasty full guard and weak pommel.
P.S. You might consider taking a look at the BK&T line of Camillus http://www.camillusknives.com/1mainframe.htm?bkt/index.shtml~main (spectacular knives IMO)

I have all three and prefer the KABAR for all around camp use.

Stamp hates SOGs and writes with a biased opinion Even though he swears he doesn't and tries to use his "testing" to prove they are sub par. Take it with a grain of salt. The 2000 is an excellent knife. Do your own testing and don't let others color your opinion.....
