A lot of the guys carried SOG SEAL Pup knives in Afghanistan, but I believe they were all Taiwan-made since the Seki AUS-6 version was out of production and the China-made ones weren't being made yet. Mine is Taiwan-made and is AUS-8, it is a very light knife, I have pocket knives that are heavier, but it is one very tough knife. They were used heavily for a million different tasks, and were carried in combat just because they are light and tough. I know it's a small knife, and it's not ideal for chopping (not at all) but a bunch of us Marines carried them, along with soldiers and Spec-Ops guys, so that says something. And that handle, glass-filled (Zytel, I think that's what it's called) is just about as tough as the blade, it almost feels like carbon fiber in a way. Anyway, thanks Mayor for the video, and if anybody is interested in getting a SOG SEAL Pup then do it, it's a really good little knife.

Thanks for a Great review as always Mayor! I own this knife but have never used it to the extreme like you show in your test.But because of your test I now know how durable it really is.Dont change anything on your tests because they perfectly demonstrate the uses a knife owner will use from daily chores to the extreme.But I'll leave the extreme to you because you are the Master!thanks again for your destruction tests Mayor they are the best vids out there!!

Thank you for posting these exhaustive knife tests. I'm a big fan of the SOG SEAL Team and SEAL Pup models, having owned a Seki pup and now a Taiwan version. Perhaps you can make a "phase 2" video for how well the different models clean up after such extreme testing (eg. Coatings, rust/corrosion, sharpening etc)

That was very impressive I did not expect that knife to take what you put it through. Way to go!

I like the blade design of the seal pup.

Seal Pup is lighter, better for survival around the coastal areas / salt water. Strongarm is a good choice, blade is a little thicker, and the 420HC is a good stainless. I personally like the Glock 81, comes with a good survival saw on the back of the blade. Strong, long enough for light batoning, and thick. None of these are that good at chopping, too light. BK2 or BK10 will be better choppers in the 5" range, but weight is heavy, and the steel will rust without oil. Mayor Fuglycool

T.Fırat ARAS I broke the Canopy while batoning. I'd advise against their big blades. Also, the blade is hollow ground which is for skinning, shaving or fighting. Not wood processing as advertised. It's also too heavy to cut light foliage, as you can't swing it fast enough.

Well done. Made a fan of that knife out of me.

Nice test . Can you please try to fillet a fish with one of the survival knifes just to see if it can be used as a knife . In survival situation might need to eat at one point .

Test the Chinese made knife Cima 2 fixed blade with D2 steel. I want to see how bad it does.

hello Mayor. Have you ever seen a knife with more beautifull Design as the SOG Seal PUP?

Can you please try the. Cold steel master hunter🙏

Liked the video. But I, and I get the feeling you do also, want a bigger blade you can actually chop with for the tests. Please consider this comment for the next video :D keep it up !

It's worth noting that the back edge is concave not straight. So it's only hitting points on the back edge. Something he doesn't point out which is important. That's why his brick test isn't really a true test.

This is really a knife designed to kill... not to survive in the wilderness. it does ok in that area, but in a hung up air assault repelling situation it will cut that nylon repelling rope like butter, and it will slice a throat or penetrate a chest with minimal effort, which is what it was designed to do!

I use mine to exterminate roaches and "Zombies".

Didn't know they were made in China! Taiwan have been making good blades for a long time, so has China. But China do make some crap. Just didn't think SOG who recommend the forces to use their knives to have them made in China!
