For sale are two vintage and very rare SOG TeamLeaders. [You certainly dont see this everyday.]
Heres a bit of description from a SOG promotional piece:
This was the third knife SOG ever produced (model number "S3") and was manufactured in the mid-to-late 1980s (I don't have the exact year...probably around the 3rd year of SOG's existance). If I have my stats correct, only about 250 were produced. So these are very rare and highly valued knives.
They are in near new condition and appear to have never been used to cut anything. The have some small surface hairline scratches that have come from minimal handling. They have no boxes or paperwork (knives and sheaths only).
One is an SK-5 carbon steel blade that has a blued finish. The other has a blade that I believe is probably AUS-8 stainless steel that has a brushed finish.
These are BIG, imposing knives! When open, they rival fixed blades in size!
These were picked up from a collector a couple years back who had picked them up new; so Im the second owner.
As with all great or rare knives, I was hoping to keep these indefinitely (because Im that fond of them), but due to other hobbies, Ive needed to re-evaluate keeping them.
It's my intention to sell them as a pair (as they were acquired) and may/will hold out for that scenario (Ill have to see...touch base with me anyway if you're interested in only one...I'll put you on a waiting list).
[BOTH SOLD] Selling for $775/Pair (shipped). / Price reduced to $600/Pair (willing to sell individually)
Please email me if you have questions, if you want additional images, or if you want to pick these up.
This price includes basic insured shipment to US addresses only. Payment in money orders only. The knives are to be considered "as is" (including no original boxes). I do guarantee my sales to your satisfaction (within reason).

This knife sported a blade similar to that of the SOG Bowie and a handle which resembles the Tomcat. But where the Tomcat has a more rounded bolsters, The Team Leader has more angular edges. And instead of the Tomcat's Kraton slabs, The Team Leader had smooth, black micarta insets. The bolster on the blade side is extremely concave (moon shaped), giving two sharp points on the outer edges.
