Model: SOG17410441 • UPC: 729857014168
Compact, tough, and built for real work—the SOG Aegis FX delivers everyday cutting performance in a purpose-driven fixed blade you’ll actually carry. Its 3.70-inch drop-point, plain-edge blade is crafted from 4116 Krupp stainless steel, a proven alloy prized for excellent corrosion resistance, dependable toughness, and easy field sharpening. A durable stonewashed finish reduces glare and hides wear, while the Black GRN (glass-reinforced nylon) handle with Moss Green accents provides a secure, all-weather grip that locks into your hand. The kit includes a carry-ready sheath for safe, flexible mounting on belts, packs, or straps.
From trail meals and campsite chores to fishing, hunting support, and daily utility, the Aegis FX (SOG17410441) is the lightweight fixed blade that earns its spot in your kit.
Why the SOG Aegis FX Stands Out
Work-Ready 4116 Krupp Stainless Steel
High-chromium composition delivers great stain resistance and reliable toughness, while sharpening quickly on basic stones—a win for outdoor and marine environments.
Stonewashed, Low-Glare Finish
The rugged stonewash treatment camouflages micro-scratches from rope, cardboard, and wood, keeping the blade looking clean after hard use.
Control-Focused Drop Point, Plain Edge
A centered tip offers precision and strength; the plain edge excels at clean slicing, feather sticks, notching, and detailed work.
All-Weather GRN Ergonomics
The Black GRN handle with Moss Green accents features traction texturing, jimping, and an ergonomic contour that provides a secure, fatigue-reducing grip—wet, cold, or gloved.
Carry-Ready Sheath (Included)
Positive retention with multi-position mounting lets you carry vertically or with a slight cant on belts or lash to packs.

Performance You’ll Notice
Easy Maintenance, Anywhere
4116 steel sharpens fast and takes a keen working edge, so you can restore bite at camp or in the garage—no specialty kit required.
Confident Grip in Tough Conditions
The GRN handle offers real traction with jimping and contouring that keep your hand planted for safe, accurate cuts in rain, sweat, or cold.
Everyday Versatility
A drop-point shape with a plain edge moves smoothly from food prep and cord cutting to trimming hose, opening feed bags, and breaking down boxes.
Ideal Use Cases
Trail & Camp: Food prep, cordage, tent stakes, fire prep (tinder, feather sticks).

Hunting Support: Field tasks, light processing, and campsite chores.
Yard & Shop: Garden ties, rubber hose, packaging, plastic strapping.

Carry & Setup Tips
Sheath Positioning: Mount vertically or with a slight cant; test draw from your dominant hand for a smooth, safe presentation.
Retention Check: Ensure the blade seats with a positive click and draws cleanly; adjust mounting screws if needed.
Practice with Gloves: Rehearse draw and re-sheath motions to build cold-weather muscle memory.
Care & Maintenance
Clean & Dry: Rinse after exposure to salt, citrus, or game fluids; dry thoroughly.
Edge Touch-Ups: Ceramic or diamond stones make quick work of 4116; finish with a light strop for razor bite.
Protective Film: Apply a thin coat of food-safe oil to the edge in humid or marine environments.
Sheath Hygiene: Rinse grit from the sheath and air-dry to protect finish and retention.
