SOG Aegis AT XR: Building on Success
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Some super cool Swiss F5 footage will be shown as we quickly show you the jet on the table. Then TD and I get busy drawing contrasts between the 1st Gen SOG Aegis vs the newer Aegis AT XR. The latter is a different knife but may win you over with its speed, new looks, great blade finish on D2 steel, and tougher build.

Here's just some of the comments from TNP Patrons on this video that was posted by elite TNP Donors: "Josiah Pierce SICK F5 footage. Love it. 2w Tacticaldoodle The more time I spend with the new sog lineup the more I like them. Likeability has gone up a bit since filming this one. w Load reply Boone Mill Farm Love TD. Love F-5s. First time I’ve heard them fire guns, cannons. Sweet. Been on many Air to ground ranges. A4s, A7s A10s, F4s , and F15s. Late 70s it was. Watched an A10 shoot and then pound the ground, pilot floated his shute thru the fireball. Capt. out of Myrtle Beach AFB. I went and got him. I was scared to death. He was burning brighter, ampt up like a stick of dynamite. Palmetto gunnery range, 30 miles south of Shaw AFB 1978/9 ish. This brought it back. Don’t know why. The knife.... The knife ~ nah. Merry Christmas to your family Nutn. Merry Christmas to you all. 2w TacticalBunnyCA Lol! My SOG Aegis is in my BOK as well! “Because it’s so lightl” and I’d had it for so long I just got board so I found an omnipresent place for it. I did break just a tiny bit of the tip, at least once maybe twice and so it’s about 1/32 to 1/64 shorter than original but with a belt sander on the sledge and work with my consistent angle sharpener (KME made in USA, it’s pretty okay to very good specifically for recurve knives) you can’t tell by looking at it. It’s still and amazing and extremely sharp pocket surgeon! 1 2w James R When i got pulled over by the cops and I m out of the car and he says “do you have anything sharp in you pocket that will poke me” all I hear is “GEAR CHECK” I m yeah bro check this and this and this o and my light check this lmao 2w The Nutnfancy Project Nice one, I beat you'd beat HIS gear check 2w Michael B warner The SOG Aegis is another excellent EDC option. I've had one in my rotation for a couple year's now and still love it. 2w Charles New That Aegis mini has been one of my long term go to blades, really like that one. 2w The Nutnfancy Project I do too, carrying the Gen 1 Mini Aegis for the last week 2w Bretti Andrettski I bought a few S.O.G.'s over the last 2 years and I don't seem to gravitate to them for my EDC. I think it's because I like to flip or wave my knives and I wish they would just drop the whole safety thing. 2w The Nutnfancy Project Yeah I hate those safeties, super glue them closed 2w Beck Seattle Sea Hawks colors 2w The Nutnfancy Project Bleck 2 2w Doug Irelan All of my SOG’s have been sharp out of the box. Some others not so much. Your tweet about the Cold Steel Luzon on sale reminded me how much I liked them and the price. I bought the medium as Christmas gifts for my son and two son in laws. They opened them on Christmas Eve and liked them. Then I explained there is a large version, pulled it out and deployed it. Their reaction was priceless. 2w The Nutnfancy Project Oh yeah, Large Luzon for the win...great blades those are! 2w Load reply John K Stankiewicz Merry Christmas Nutn! 2w The Nutnfancy Project You too, thanks 2w Lee Graves Awesome review thanks guys! the painting on the jet was awesome! 2w The Nutnfancy Project THanks for being here and we love them jets 2w HairyPost Merry Christmas Guys! Sweet review Nutn keep them coming!! 2w Andrey Shlyakt Whats the Venn diagram look like for people who liked both the original and AT Aegis? Because I'm there. 2w The Nutnfancy Project You're with us! We like them both. They're just different knives. SOG has to change things up to be competitive. 2w Tracy Barbin Merry Christmas Nutn’s! Hope you all are feeling better! 2w HappyFrancisMacomber Sheffield + rattle can paint job = best knife on table 2w Matt Thanks Nutn for the quick look at the Ganzo FH41. I've been thinking about picking one up. Glad to hear you like it. Love the KRVs and the fact the you work in competitive options. 2w isaiah E gaytan Bought this knife before the review I'm glad I did 2w Paul Griech Bugout or Aegis? lol 2w""
Nice cut there at the end!
My mom was adamant about me not getting tattoos and I didn't want to hurt her so I never got tattoos....Now with everybody and their grandmother having them I'm glad I didnt....
no tattoos no piercings no sunglasses
I still have my old Aegis in my rotation. 200 knives later, still one of my favorites.
This is so crazy to me- I finally forked over the money for a Digi Aegis last summer... and now the AT XR comes out. Not to mention, I was ten years late to the game and in those years, the Aegis went from about $60 pre-Nutn raving review, to about $105 with corona prices.
My dad lived in Lynwood, WA. I stopped by SOG to see if they could fix something on my knife while visiting. 5 minutes later it’s fixed and sharpened. Great company.
Boy, now I feel really stupid about this "TNP" tattoo...
My tattoo is "not outstanding" and I wish it would "suck less". Someone needs to invent velcro.
The Flash AT and the Trident AT are awesome. I go back and forth between thinking the aegis looks awesome or fugly. Can’t wait for a trident review
I like how youtube waited until now to send me the notification
The minute you said I cannot find it I KNEW exactly where it was! I still remember watching that bug out bag review and seeing the first aegis. I bought that same knife and it is my favorite to this day!
13:29 protech watching with disgust at those pocket clip screws lol
I bought this knife mostly for second cool about 3 months ago. I like its assisted, I like the colours and I think it looks cool and stand out from most my other black knives.
I watched the first Aegis video you posted and compared it to the current one. All the changes seem kind of worse.. its heaver with the liner, the jimping and no traction on the handle ..and again the weight. I thought you were going to make me feel like an idiot for buying the new one... but I'm glad to hear you like it ( at least for second cool) .
Love the knife show!! I always loved knives but I was the only person I knew that had an EDC. It was so refreshing to find your channel. I love your old trench run and gun videos in the desert. Thank you for your advice on guns, knifes and life.
I'm canadian, so my inner gun nerd is lived through you, but we can still carry SOME knives ( no automatics)
Anyway thank you
People call Americans crazy for being "gun freaks" but i would hate to live anywhere that dictated to you exactly what kind of knife you are allowed for personal use... It's the slippery slope that only a well armed constituency is capable of holding back! Anyways i just wanted to say i think you are missing out on automatics! they're not ALL that (i personally love some assisted opening kershaws and find them to be quite comparable) but are still nice to have around!
I bought the original Aegis based on your review and it came along with me on my deployment to Afghanistan. Still have it today. A great knife for sure.
I've done some stress analysis work on the F-5. What a killer little plane!
Loved the og aegis. Have carried it for many years
Merry Christmas boys
Loved the mini,would buy eleven more immediately if they brung it back...
Camouflage like spaghetti. I’m dead.
Everyone is free to ink themselves up as they please. That being said, often your first indication that someone has a mental complex (usually low self esteem or immaturity) is a need to distract you from their natural body by marking it up. Never thought a beautiful person got more beautiful with tattoos; though plenty of people wrecked their looks with them.
I’m not happy with the Aegis redesign for mainly one reason: the proportions are off. The blade looks way too short for the handle, as the goofy lanyard loop takes up too much space. Looks as though it could occlude your grip as well. Change that and it looks as though the blade could have been 1/4” - 3/8”” longer.
It looks way too short on the mini too. That's the first thing I noticed. So not really a redesign issue.
About time on Sog knives 😁got few getting better to.sog flash in my paints .👍
I bought one of the cheap base model Aegis's. It weighs 3 lbs, but I love it... and no lock!
You’re son always make me laugh, his voice, great 👍 channel 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
As a marketing guy I can definitively say your right
It certainly looks cool. Wish it was made in USA
You should get a TNP tattoo Nutn'.
The knife is cool
Great video you two.
I'm one of those that doesn't like knives with springs. My benchmade 585 and boker kalashnikov don't get grabbed as much when I know I want a blade I'm going to use. I really only carry the boker from time to time for the novelty because I got the "warhawk" one. It's just a personal preference for manual knives, I don't think there's anything wrong with assisted or autos.
Great knife. I own an Aegis and its one of my favorites.
My only problem with the originals Aegis, is that i damaged the tip, and have never been able to reprofile the blade or otherwise fix it, and secondly I had the thumb studs fall out and SOG never did send my replacement thumb studs.
I still never get the utility blade. Then again, I'm not opposed to using a $600 knife to pry, cut, slash anything and everything I need a knife for.
All Knives "Out of Stock", as of 17:42 CT, 09 Jan 21...Thanks TNP
My only gripe with most assisted open blades is that it's nearly impossible to safely close them one-handed. (Zac from BladeHQ has the same gripe.) It seems that CRKT has found a way to remedy that with their latest version of assisted knives.
Do you guys like the microtech socom alpha fixed blades? I’m thinking about pulling the trigger on one.
Great job as always. I've always liked Sog knives even with the blade play they used to have. His designs connect with me and their products since they designed the Flashbacks, the Aegis FLK and finally the Pillar shows that they understood that they had to raise their quality to continue competing. I don't understand why they only modified more radically the design of the Flash since they started to change things although in truth I like the new Flash more than the old one and I totally agree that they are overpriced, the safety was not necessary on any of them . The SOG ASSISTED TECH (S.A.T.) doesn't bother me. Between all the new Trident is the one I like the most. It is interesting that they decided to "degrade" (joking) the Aegis from Tactical to Outdoor knife and shortened the blade. The Aegis was always one of my favorites with 3. 5 inches of blade and 3.1 ounces (Heavier now......BUMMER!!) so I didn't like that they decided to change its, to me, perfect design by shrinking its blade although it was only a little and change its perfect pocket clip and adding that goofy lanyard hole. If they lengthened the handle (according to SOG website) I would have preferred that they had lengthened the blade. I'm happy they switched to D2 and the "new" XR lock is great. I hope all your beautiful family is well and healthy.
I love the weight and blade of aegis too. WHY?
😐 I bought both the original digi camo full size...then several of the mini aegis' when they came out....all of them had an issue closing at about 270 degree mark of closing....binding...even after lubed. I'm now addicted to Spyderco Para 3's, a superior choice to SOG imho. Still love Nutn's video's...but the original Aegis was a no-go for me.
Knifecenter has an exclusive in orange handle black blade rn
I have no ink. Good with that.
Having to put super glue on a knife is gods way of saying its not your knife
I know it's not the exact right colors but my first thought was of blue angels color scheme.
I got one small one when i was younger and dumber and im just really glad i didnt get any more
redesign is a miss, love my flash1 from a decade ago, moved on to larger blades but refreshing when I carry it again.
Love my mini flash 1. I don’t carry it often anymore but agree with the refreshing feeling.
Cool vid. I like that SOG upped the steel a bit. Would have preferred S30V...and not the yellow...and not plastic thumbstuds. And G10 instead of FRN handles. Uh...I guess that I'm not that excited by this. I like the blade shape. I like the handle shape. I like the pocket clip. So...overall..it's a swing...and we got to second base, but no runs batted in...and definitely not a home run. Can we do baseball in 2021? Or are we stuck with lockdown baseball? Do sports matter anymore or did the "take a knee" thing finally destroy the incredibly badly run world of pro sports?
The original aegis is my everyday edc for like the last year so light forget I even have it and as long as u don't do any unnecessary prying or stabbing bricks or something it'll take care of u
I'm one of those guys who disliked assisted opening.
I feel like if you make a proper detent for a knife it should deploy as fast or close to what an assisted knife can do. Also assisted knives are not as easy to close one handed as a manual knife.
Not saying I'm right or wrong! Just my 2 cents.
F-5 Freedom Fighter.
Do you have any SU-27 model.?
I think the new flash is the best redesign
I actually had a colleague who wanted to surprise his wife with a new tattoo. Only problem was he had the wrong date, so not his actual marriage date, tattooed on his chest.
True story.
Nice vid by the way 😉
Got me the Flash AT last week, first SOG and first assisted knife for me. Like it, feels very solid. This Aegis looks a bit over designed, at least for me.
We need more color in the blade industry. I've got too many all black? grey and black blades. Give me some coyote, OD, blue, etc. All day long
On one hand i'm glad SOGs bumped up their materials, on the other its kind of a shame all these knives besides the trident moved away from being tactical blades. Enough bushcraft/edc stuff on the market as is imo.
Got this blade just recently... Has a good degree of quality to it, but jeez, how hard was it to put an actual deeper cut out for the thumb stud to make it easier to open? As is it is just SO DAMN STIFF... I don't want to rip my thumb bloody just by flicking it open and closing it.... And don't get me started on the clip... This coming from a well loved company and (supposedly) a competent knife creator that has ease of use LITERALLY in the name! if you can't do the peer group research to actually make this knife comfortable to use and improve basic ergonomics (that i found solutions to literally within minutes of opening and playing with it) then i don't understand how this is one of the products that they released to "reinvent " the brand...
I almost purchased one of these when they debuted, but it wasn't weight that made me change my mind. That safety sucks. Hate it.
Sog = Mall Ninja.
Have same one as 1:33 , it weighs nothing.
Whenever anyone's all excited about tattoos and asks why I don't have any I always love to say "I don't have any tattoos for the same reason I don't put bumper stickers on a Ferrari."
I like the old Aegis more. Was always on my to buy list but never got around to it. As I look at one of my knives on the table I wonder if you'll like it too or have any experience with it, the Lion Steel TRE. God I love this knife. I have three grail knives (for poor fucks like myself) that took the place of what would have been 10 mid price knives like the Aegis. No regrets.
I don't understand why this is more expensive than the new Flash AT. It's smaller, uses the same materials and mechanism.
That gun run was great, where can a civilian go to see that?
Had no clue that the knife had a safety. Hmm. Could have lived a better life not knowing.
Hate the new lanyard hole
Its a sad day when a SOG KRV gets relegated to the B channel
💚💚💚
Doesnt TD have a TaT on his left forearm? No judgement...just wondering.
I've never seen it.
might have been the license plate number of the person that cut him off written in sharpie so he could get online later and do some research.
?
I guess I’m more a fan of the older version
Everything is mainstream LOL, the internet is the great equalizer of knowledge. I love opinionated people because I am🤟🏼👍🏻👏🏼
Assisted openings knives serve no real purpose, they're just fun. Do you really need that extra millionth of a second? And they can't be closed one handed. I prefer a knife that doesn't have a spring pressure resisting you when closing it. I have the Flash One, that I bought based on your review, and I like it, but don't need the assisted opening.
Aegis still USA made?
Nope. Taiwan. Like everything else D0G is making. I think they've transitioned to ALL Asian manufacturing. I don't think any of their knives are US made anymore.
@@xenonram Well, Taiwan is better than China. I'm fine with that.
Am I the only one that doesn’t like D2 steel. It doesn’t sharpen up the easiest. It looses its razor sharp edge quickly. It rusts fairly easy. So many better options.
I don't like assisted knives because they aren't as easy and simple to close with one hand... and it seems like an old trick to hide a bad knife action. Just me though.
Dont like all the plastic parts waiting to fail. That blade is small for me. A delica would be a better choice . Dont want a safety. Ever.
Spyderco resiliance is my main knife. And i have several.
I bought two of the original first gen versions for two of my non-knife loving friends. They still carry garbage blades they bought for 5 bucks at the gas station.
@John Daley preaching to the choir, buddy. It drives me bonkers.
Welp, I've had my original Aegis for 7 years, now I'm off to buy another original as a backup before they go out of stock. The color, plastic, and weight are a huge turn off.
Oh and TD, you've got yo start freezing your jeans my man. Washing machines are for normies now
Tattoos are lame.
1 ounce really makes it or breaks it? Thats kinda laughable. If it was 4-7 ounces in difference that would be noticeable. If they kept the original shape, added the XR lock, d2 I'd be much happier. I'm not the biggest fan of the new looks
I never got a tattoo. I think they're stupid just like knife safeties.
Tattoos have never been cool.
There should be an explanation with Thumbs Down, Whi down votes this stuff ?
People with shit tattoos.
Would not buy it because of the safety
I will be deleting my youtube account. Please post your content to rumble. Sincerely, Tim Dybala.
Imagine all the Bernie Sanders supporters trying to explain their tattoos..
Woow woow 😍💋 💝💖❤️
I like butt crack tats cause when you show them they're not the center of attention
