SOG's DOGs! Let me hear your howl! C'mon! Welcome to the Bone & Blade Tavern, thread for
SOG's DOG's members to introduce & tell us all about yourselves! Please feel free to introduce yourselves, tell us about yourselves--interests, skills, hobbies, training, etc. We want to know! It is NOT a requirement, but a request! I will begin..

(Foreword:Not bragging, not boasting. Just thought you all would be interested)

I go by many names, but most of you know me as B2D..Head of the SOG's DOGs..Alpha of the Pack. I'm also known as Darkwhispers...& recently took up the name, "Frozenharted", some of you, particularly Alann45, know why.. I will not delve into it. But it was...heart-shattering. My heart goes out to any whom have fallen victim to a heartless witch..love-lost
is a terrible pain. Pfheh! I refuse to let it drag me down.. I have matters to attend here & elsewhere. My first post at these forums was asking help to pick out new knives & gear made by SOG itself, to replace what I had unfortunately lost. Anyway, few of you likely know how SOG's DOGs was started.. It was my admiration for SOG's well-made & tough products that drew my attentiont to how little action this forum sees--I aimed/aim to change that.. SOG's DOGs..it began with a nudge..from a particular member, our very own #2, Alann45..

It began as a nudge, "Maybe you can start a movement", he said.. "Maybe I will.." I said..
Thinking back..it was that nudge..which started as a tiny flake of snow..but quickly became
a roaring avalanche! I have become absolutely determined to see SOG's DOGs to it's end,
I am here for the long-term, as long as SOG's DOGs is here, it's Alpha will be here with it's Pack..that is my promise.. We started as unofficial..then..one day I checked my messages..
Chris, SOG's Forum's moderator..had left me a message--wanting to speak over the phone..
I admit..I was hesitant, I tentatively punched in the number left..we spoke, laughed, talked,
came to a mutual agreement. SOG's DOGs recieved the blessing, became OFFICIAL. Yes, I had not expected, had HOPED it would go this far..& now we continue to grow.. I do not know what lies in store for SOG's DOGs, but I will be here--no matter what comes, I will not abandon the Pack.

My training began as a kid, mostly as play. As I grew older, it matured along with me.. At the age of fifteen, it became serious. My training evolved & matured four years ago.. It is
what it is now--Mixed-Martial-Arts (Kick-Boxing/Self-Defense, Knife-Fighting/Throwing),
Survival (Urban, Mountain, Eastern Woodland), First-aid, Marksmanship (Specializing in primitive, particularly knife-throwing, & lighting-fast & accurate), & another facet.. There are other aspects but these form the foundation. I also train as a powerlifter.. (There are a
considerable number of well-trained people on these forums...)

*I don't consider or see myself as a bad-a@@--I'm just a regular Joe who enjoys physical-training.

Knife-throwing range/record:27/30 throws, 30 ft., target size:about the size of my closed hand..

Kinetic-Force:I can leave knuckle imprints in heavy-metal doors. Yes, it hurts badly. Did it on a dare. :D I don't recommend it either--I've trained for years, & there is every chance I
could irrevocably damage my hand (I did it twice--won't do it again :) )

Have I ever needed to defend myself--Yes, several times. Have I ever hurt anyone---Absolutely not, & will not. It's self-defense, afterall. No one has to get hurt, if you know what you are doing--avoid trouble to begin with.

Current Powerlifting records:

Bench-Press:325
Dead-Lift:500
Squat:500 (Can't squat anymore--bad knee injury back in December)
Overhead Press(Strict-Military):185

Total body weight 185..I'm lean. I don't have a six-pack. I'm just lean.

Age:Guess. :D I'm not telling. :P

Why do I train? I like to stay healthy. I like to rely on myself..

Motto:Treat others as you'd prefer to be treated. Treat others with respect & compassion.

Who am I? Why, I'm B2D--Head of SOG's DOGs..a regular Joe just like anyone else :)

So, please, SOG's DOGs, feel free to come here & tell us about yourselves! It can prove to be interesting to read, trust me. You can tell us as MUCH or as LITTLE as you want! I'm asking you, to please, consider how hard I work to keep this going, & help me out here--tell
us a big about yourselves. It will help the pack to grow larger & closer. SOG's DOG's must grow in order to become greater..it must grow to gain more recoqnition! Please, help me...

Ok I'm in. Well mine is a long story in itself. I too have fallen lately :( lost love nuff said. Found a new one even better (woman). I never was allowed to participate in any sport, save for another story about life. Later in life, say around 22, I started my martial arts. It has been a long hard road there finding a good teacher. So I have had many. From kickboxing, karate, jujitsu, and now hapkido. My love of knives has been with me since I got my first knife at age 14. It was a little single blade folder that I carried everyday, everywhere. It progressed further year by year and now I make knives on occasion when there is a special request ( will post pics later ). SOG however has been in there from time to time, come and gone , traded etc. Now I'm in the SOG DOGs and plan to stay. I have and currently practice survival myself. One of my best friends has taught me a lot. I also enjoy woodworking, gardening, and metal working, along with being a jack of all trades. Well there's part of my story but I will save more for later.

OK, I'll wade in ...... let's see, where to start. OK, here we go: I graduated high school, went to college, went in the Navy, got out of the Navy, went back to college, graduated college, got a day job, got into the Navy Reserves, kept working the day job and the Reserves, retired from the Reserves, kept working at the day job, retired from the day job, been lazy ever since. My martial arts training was learning how to kick butt in the Navy and the corporate world, with minimum proficiency. For whatever reason and I don't know why, I became a SOG fan way back in 2002 and have collected quite a few SOG fixed blades since then. My major claim to SOG fame is that I met & chatted with Mr SOG Himself at SHOT Show in 2004.

Cheers,

Carl

Alrighty then. I too have had some martial arts training, seems to be a theme so far. Two years of Judo and two and half of Jujitsu under the late Sensei Raymond Ancho. Graduated high school, went in the Navy, was in the Persian Gulf War, Honorably discharged as an EM3. I am a machine builder. I love knives, the outdoors, spending time with my family. Of all the knives I own, I own mostly Sogs although Victorninox may have taken the lead. None the less, I have been impressed, and happy with every Sog purchase.

i'll throw my 2 cents in. spent most of my life in florida, lived a little in hawaii, now running in circles in california. I grew up in the country and loved camping, hiking, and the beautiful beaches of hawaii(not florida). Feel saddened when the new friends i have out here ask me why i have a knife. So few understand. Have a dedicated crew that comes out with me hiking every now and then, but still trying to find new and better places. especially now that i'm on the west coast, i'd love to try and get up to the seqouia(sp?) and colorado. Bought a pink sog flash for my gf, which she loved, though i doubt she'll come join blade forums :P cool beans, i'm done
