S.O.G Trident Sog 11-12-12-41 At Tanto Fde Peg Box

The S.O.G Trident AT is a purpose-built folding tanto knife engineered for hunters, field professionals, and outdoor enthusiasts who demand a blade that handles serious cutting tasks. This particular configuration pairs a 3.70-inch tanto blade with a flat dark earth textured handle, striking the balance between tactical aesthetics and everyday carry practicality. S.O.G's Trident line has earned respect in the field for delivering reliability without unnecessary complexity—and the AT variant maintains that tradition with a clean, efficient design.

Built on S.O.G's reputation for combat-proven steel, the Trident AT features a D2 steel blade treated with cryo hardening for enhanced edge retention and durability. D2 is known in the knife world for holding a sharp edge through serious work while remaining relatively easy to maintain in the field. The tanto blade profile is particularly well-suited to penetration and slicing tasks—popular with hunters and bushcraft users who need a versatile edge that won't fold under demanding cuts.

The flat dark earth handle delivers a professional, subdued appearance that works equally well on a hunting trip or packed into your EDC rotation. S.O.G equipped this version with a peg box presentation, making it ready to gift or suitable for retail display. The textured grip ensures positive control even when your hands are wet or gloved, a practical consideration for anyone working in field conditions.

Whether you're dressing game, processing firewood, or simply looking for a reliable folder that won't quit, the Trident AT delivers S.O.G's no-nonsense approach to knife design. This is a tool built to work, not to impress—though it does both.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the Trident AT best suited for?

The Trident AT's tanto blade excels at hunting tasks, field dressing, cutting camp tasks, and general outdoor work. The blade profile is particularly effective for penetration and slicing—practical for anyone who spends serious time in the field.

How does D2 steel perform compared to stainless?

D2 is a high-carbon tool steel that holds an edge significantly longer than most stainless options, making it ideal for demanding cutting work. The trade-off is that it requires more maintenance in wet conditions, but for field users willing to care for their tools, the superior edge retention is worth it. S.O.G's cryo hardening process enhances this already tough steel.

Is this knife suitable for EDC carry?

Yes. At 3.70 inches, the blade falls within the legal carry limits in most US states, and the flat dark earth handle maintains a low-profile appearance. The folding design makes it compact and convenient for daily carry alongside your other gear.

What does "peg box" packaging mean?

Peg box packaging is designed for retail display—the knife comes in a box ready to hang on a store fixture. It's also ideal for gifting or keeping as a collectible presentation.
