Seal Team 2000 Seki, Japan Nylon Sheath

Seal Team 2000 is a AUS 6 blade knife with a rubber handle that was designed for the US Navy SEAL knife trials in 1992. The knife was manufactured from 1995 to 2007 for SOG by Kinryu of Seki Japan. Knives such as these and many of the SOG models produced prior to the shift of production from Seki, Japan to Taiwan are the best knives SOG had ever made.

The knife needed to accompany a Navy SEAL must be just as worthy. The US Government's knife evaluation program included incredible tests that evaluated the following: tip breaking strength, blade toughness, sharpness and edge retention, handle twist-off limits, two-week salt water immersions, gasoline and acetylene torch, chopping, hammering, prying, penetration performance, cutting ability for six different types of rope and nylon line, low noise and low reflection factors, intense hands-on training in the field

The SOG Seal 2000 Knife features 7" partially serrated blade, powder-coated for low reflectivity, grippy Zytel handle for chemical and flame resistance, AUS-6 steel for saltwater resistance. and the list goes on... This is the iconic "SOG Knife" indeed. It is especially popular among the public as a scuba diving knife for its high saltwater resistance and is usually strapped to the thigh/calf for a tactical feel.
