FSA-7 / FSA-8
The introduction of the new Flash line of folders debuts SOG's new patent
pending SAT (SOG Assisted Technology). This mechanism helps
propel the blade open once the operator has initiated the one-handed opening
action. They're fast as lightning, safe, and provide an extremely strong
blade lock. This opening action is uniquely different from all others with
a fast start and a power curve throughout the movement of the blade. When
closing the blade into the handle you actually feel as if you are cocking
a side arm as the blade is held securely inside the handle.
SAT is the framework for this new line of lightweight folders. The bolt action
lock is easily released with a sliding button. SOG also had the foresight
to
incorporate an additional safety lock that gives added security when the blade
is closed. Note that when the switch shows redŠyou are ready to go.
In addition to SAT, the handles of the Flash are molded from glass reinforced
Zytel and are contoured with a new ergonomic sensibility that makes the
knife a pleasure to use. SOG has also incorporated a new ambidextrous clip
device that is easily interchanged. This bayonet-mounted clip extends from
the end of the hand for the lowest discreet carry possible.
