SOG Recon Bowie 2.0 knife SOG99580
Description
The original Recon was the first knife developed and procured by SOG personnel in the Vietnam War. It was designed for SOG’s clandestine cross-border Recon team which experienced vicious, close-quarter combat. We have taken this highly collectable classic design and updated with it with modern materials like stainless steel, rubber handles and black TiNi coating. The Recon Bowie 2.0 captures the essence of this positively unique blade.

Brand
SOG was named in honor of a covert US Special Ops unit – MACV-SOG, which fought in Vietnam. Inspired by their unique Bowie combat knife, a young designer called Spencer Frazer founded SOG Knives & Tools in 1986 with a goal to reproduce the original Bowie knife. Today, SOG is a true innovator in the knife industry.
