New Megafolder by SOG ?

I have copied the following from the news page at Skylands Cutlery
PENTAGON ELITE SERIES - THE ORIGINAL PENTAGON ELITE HAS BEEN UPDATED TO THE NEW ARC-LOCK. A NEW MODEL
CALLED THE PENTAGON ELITE II HAS BEEN ADDED. THIS NEW MODEL FEATURES THE ARC-LOCK AND A 5" BLADE.BOTH
MODELS HAVE AUS-8A COMBO EDGE BLADES. SUGGESTED RETAIL PRICES ARE $74.95 AND $99.95.
Unfortunately, there are no pictures at the site yet, and the homepage of SOG isn't up to date either. The Arc-Lock is said to be ambidextrous and very similar to the Axis lock system. Finally, a big folder with an innovative lock at an affordable price

?Does anyone have pictures or further information ?

Thanks in advance,
Tobse !


 
That looks like the original Elite.

I think it's a smart move on SOG's part to introduce not only a new lock but to break the 4" (folderblade)ceiling and join the megafolder tribe. Despite them coming out with new models every season along with everyone else, they never seemed to break forward on the offensive. I hope that they'll leave the minute sharpend back edge unsharpend, unlike how it appears on the current Elite.
 
Yes, it looks like the industry is starting to listen and give us what we've been asking for. I may have to score one of these to appease me until the BFF1 comes out.
