Hi All,

I believe this is an SOG Agency. Anyone out there able to confirm/identify?

Thanks a lot.

A quick Google search pulls up hundreds of pictures of the SOG Agency.

I don't think your knife is one, the blade shape is a clip point while the Agency looks more like a drop point with a slight recurve. The handle profile is also different. The finger guard is also a different shape and isn't brass.

Doesn't look like an Agency to me.
 
I looked for a long time and I couldn't find a match, hence the post here. The closest was an Agency, so that was my guess. Crazy to me that all knives don't have model identifiers on them.
 
I'm not sure what that is. The agency was not made in seki. Maybe a prototype or something like that. K KenHash might know.
 
That is one of the limited edition Government models SOG had made by Kinryu, Seki.
Kinryu made all the standard models as well. The original box for that knife
should read "LTD. LEATHER GOV'T". I think they numbered 1-250, but maybe not all were.
The Desert Dagger was another model offered as a limited edition model with same leather handle
and pommel.

Interesting. Thanks for chiming in. Your knowledge is always helpful.
