I was at a hardware supply trade show back in ‘89 and saw a vendor showing the SOG line of knives. I had never seen a spring assisted knife and where I grew up, switch blades were illegal. Well I bought the Flash II out of the guys display case and have carried it every day since…Until Thursday night. My wife and I have had tix for a Maverick’s show for in Napa for 1.5 yrs and it finally came off. We love their music and had the Clear app for vax certification. I didn’t think of it but carrying a knife, an every day tool for me, got picked up on the way in by the police officers scan. The car was far away and the show starting so I gave it to the officer. Told him it has been a good tool all these years, said it needed a good sharpening and hoped it did as well for him as it had for me. I have a Benchmade folder I’ll try for a while, but that II was a good tool and put up with a lot.
