SOG Twitch III 3.1" Blackout Folding Knife - Tactical EDC Tool

The SOG Twitch III 3.1" blackout folding knife is a slim, purpose-built EDC blade for shooters, hunters, and anyone who needs a reliable one-handed folder in a compact package. Built on S.O.G.'s proven Twitch platform and refined for tactical carry, this knife combines 154CM steel performance with a quick-deploy assisted mechanism that gets the blade out fast when you need it—no two-handed fumbling on the clock.

The 3.1-inch drop-point blade is paired with a textured aluminum handle that feels solid in the hand without unnecessary bulk. At 7 inches overall length, it fits comfortably in a pocket, pack, or duty belt, and the blackout finish keeps things low-profile. The lockback mechanism is engineered to lock the blade securely once deployed, so you can work with confidence whether you're processing game, cutting rope at camp, or handling everyday carry tasks.

S.O.G.'s Assisted Technology does the heavy lifting—a light thumb deployment triggers smooth, reliable blade extension every time. The 154CM steel takes and holds an edge well and resists corrosion better than budget stainless, making it a smart choice for field work and EDC where your knife might see wet conditions or extended time between maintenance.
