The SOG Gov-Tac is a full-tang workhorse. I have it for survival and tactical purposes, and chose the SOG for my 3,000 mile solo cycle trip. The thick-backed design with a reinforced tip is good for batoning wood and, thanks to durable 6" AUS 8 steel, it retains a fine edge. Double hilt guard and non-slip Kraton-G handle, plus excellent jimping on the blade, make it safe to operate. The included Kydex sheath is excellent and drains water. The pommel can be used for blunt tasks like pounding stakes.
Longer review coming soon!

We have a 3.5" legal blade length in Colorado...DUMB.
I was soo going to tell you about nutnfancy's videos on Youtube!! He has secular motives for his presentations, but the information is quite valuable. For over a year now I have really been interested in backpacking, and bought a Kelty Trekker 3950, after spending a good amount of time researching with the help of mr. nutnfancy. He has loads of info on survival gear, guns, and particularly backpacking equipment. I highly recommend him!!
Blade limit = ridiculous.
David, thank for the comment! I love the Nutnfancy videocast! So much good info.
