What's a good going price for an SOG Agency? And is there a good liklihood SOG will re-produce it in the foreseeable future, perhaps in a better knife steel? Some knife companies never make more than a single run of knives, then that's that.
The Agency has AUS8 steel with a gorgeous black finish. Does anyone know what that finish is and if it's durable? Is it a pretty decent knife? And does anyone make a similar knife? Is the Agency a collector's knife or is it for using, or both?
I don't have anything against AUS8A steel as long as it's heat treated well. Cold Steel does a great job with heat treat, but I don't know about SOG. It made a Bowie, a Super Bowie and, of course, the Agency. I'm a big fan of Cold Steel's DLC finish and my EDC folder is a CS Broken Skull, which wears very well.
