(More customer reviews)What can I say?This is a great knife for the cost!The pup elite is a beefed up version of the pup, and well worth the slight increase in price.Fixed blade, full tang, AUS 8 steel (decent toughness and edge-holding), decent handle, decently sized blade. The knife handles great, and I am satisfied with it.
Although I haven't used it extensively yet (as in "drop me off in the middle of the jungle" use), I'd say it'd would work well enough in a survival situation. I purchased the straight edge for my belt knife, since there aren't enough serrations to make them really useful.So far it's handled everything I've thrown at it.
The nylon sheath provided is great if you want to carry a leatherman or SAK as well.I've fit a SAK Rucksack or a Leatherman Wave in there.The kydex sheath (sold separately) is a better sheath if you're looking for easy deployment, smaller size, and more rigging options.The knife is slightly easier to unsheathe one-handed and quickly from the kydex sheath, but it really doesn't take much more effort using the nylon one.My pup used to rattle slightly in the kydex sheathe, but I've made adjustments to the sheath and it rattles no more (see sog site for sheath adjustment).
Overall, decent knife.Sure it's not a Fallkniven, Busse, RAT, or BRKT...but for the price, it's not too shabby.But then again, if you're interested in a cheap survival knife, you could always go get a Mora....

Cryogenic Heat Treatment and TiNi Coating Guarantee a Sharp, Durable BladeThe E37S-K offers a full, 4.85-inch, AUS8 stainless steel blade that has undergone SOG's patented Cryogenic Heat Treatment process, which ensures that this blade will stay sharp over the long haul. This intensive process takes more than 48 hours and involves slowly reducing the blade's temperature to less than -300 degrees Fahrenheit, then slowly heating the blade to room temperature. The stress created by this process strengthens the steel on an atomic level and increases the blade's overall durability and edge retention.
In addition to having undergone the Cryogenic Heat Treatment Process, this knife is coated in proprietary titanium nitride (TiNi), of the toughest coatings that can be applied to steel. TiNi boasts extreme hardness, is exceptionally scratch and peel resistant, and helps increase steel's longevity.
Ergonomic, Lightweight Design Ensures Years of Effortless UseEven if your blade is sharp, it's hard to make precise cuts if your knife doesn't fit comfortably in your hand. That's why this knife's handle is ergonomically contoured. Crafted from tough, glass-reinforced Zytel, the textured handle is also slip-free and well-balanced. Other ergonomic features include deep finger grooves and a blade spine rasp for easy notching, filing, and thumb placement. Also, at just 5.4 ounces, this knife is lightweight and easy to carry. A tactical Kydex sheath is included for convenient portability.
This knife is backed by a lifetime warranty that protects against defects in manufacturing and materials.
