Aegis means shield or protection in Greek and is also the code name for the world's premier integrated air defense system and the sea-based element of the United States Ballistic Missile Defense System. This ensures that any knife from the Aegis line is top quality and intended to defend. The SOG Aegis Folder Single-Blade Pocket Knife is part of the comprehensive Aegis line of premier folders and is fully integrated with top-end systems. This folding pocket knife's blade is crafted from AUS-8 stainless steel blade that has undergone SOG's patented Cryogenic Heat Treatment, which ensures the blade stays sharp for the long-term. This SOG Pocket Knife features a new modified arc actuated piston lock that enable and supports several blade configurations. You just start to open the knife, and let Aegis finish the action with a bang, utilizing one of the surest assisted technologies out there to give you access to the 3.5" inch straight blade.
Extremely sharp, but a little clumsy to open, but an excellent knife and lightweight for the size of this knife.

The pictures of this knife don't do it any justice. The blade is incredibly thick throughout the length of the knife. Its was actually bigger than i thought it was going to be which is good because i want the biggest knife i can comfortably carry on a daily basis.

I am really impressed how well made and sharp this folding knife is. It's my 1st SOG knife and it stacks up well with any of the quality knives I've bought in the past. I highly recommend this knife.

Review 5 for SOG Aegis Folder Single-Blade Pocket Knife
It is a very pretty knife. And rugged to boot! The blade is 3.5"x about 1.5". The finish is nice, although AUS 8 isn't the most stainless of stainless steels. The TiNi coating on the other versions is very good looking and durable. I'm undecided about which finish looks better in the end.
It comes out of the box razor sharp. I took all the hair off my left arm playing around with it. The AUS 8 steel isn't the best and there are others at this price point that come with VG-10 which has a finer grain and is more durable (I'm lookin' at those fine Spyderco knives). Still, it's prettty easy to resharpen to that razor edge.
The knife is also amazingly light for one this big. There's no metal liners so torsion might be a problem, but you should'nt be stabbing and twisting with this kind of knife.
Anyway, buy it! You won't be disappointed

This knife can't be beat! Considering the reputation of SOG and the price one can purchase this knife for from Walmart why wouldn't anyone buy this knife? I own a variety of knives and I use the Aegis as my every day carry knife.
