This is my latest SOG acquisition; the VL-03 full size folding Tanto blade in VG-10 San Mai steel. If you look closely at the photo, you can actually see the San Mai line in the blade. To say that the Vulcan knives are "awesome" is a tremendous understatement. The fit, finish, quality materials, design and function are all truly superb...and for a sub $100 folding knife, that is incredible. If you haven't checked out SOG's Vulcan designs, you are missing out on a truly excellent blade!
