Why the SOG Terminus XR is Excellent

SOG got their act together and most of their updates are exciting. The Terminus XR is a perfect example of this. Strong, light enough, fast, and ambi, the Terminus comes in a variety of good colors (see below). Along with this xlnt EDC SOG I'll talk to you about the German Heinkel 177, a plane if perfected would have delayed the outcome of WW II!

Seems like you haven't been much of an optics guy, but their micro red dot mounting system is pretty incredible.

Love it Nut'n! My all time favorite WW2 aircraft is the Junker JU-87 "stukka" dive bomber. Imo the 1st really effective ground support aircraft that preceded and paved the way for modern aircraft like the Fairchild A-10 "warthog". The G model, i believe, utilized 2 enormous 30 mm autocannons, 1 under each wings weapon station making it a devastatingly effective anti tank gun ship. Hey, the terminus XR is pretty cool too. Thanks!

I got the black clip from the S35VN carbon fiber one. I called and asked for them and put the clip in the hole closer to the right side and fixed the problem of pulling the knife out the pocket. I've bought a total of nine. The one I want is the jade g10 original one. But very hard to find. I use them so I'm not willing to pay the $500 people asking for. So if anyone got one I will pay original price cause I will use it alot lol.

This knife is a zesty morsel. The home defense vegetable garden is necessary. Green Zebras are heirloom tomatoes with a striped pattern; they are sweet like red tomatoes but give this gazpacho a lovely jade hue. To make the chilled soup extra tangy, use tomatillos or unripe red tomatoes instead of Green Zebras.
