Purpose-Built Performance
The SOG-TAC Auto Compact is engineered to be fast, strong, and compact. The straight-back profile provides a long, controllable cutting edge with a reinforced tip for everyday utility—cutting line, slicing straps, breaking down cardboard, and precise notching. D2’s high carbon and chromium content deliver excellent edge life; the cryogenic treatment refines the grain structure for additional toughness and stability. Pair that with Black TiNi and you’ve got a blade surface that stands up to abrasion and humidity.
Ergonomics That Work Overtime
SOG’s micro-textured aluminum handle merges slim carry with secure grip. The texture pattern offers tactile feedback and control without aggressive hotspots. The neutral handle shape supports multiple grips—saber, pinch, or reverse—for dexterity across fine and heavy cuts alike. The included pocket clip keeps the knife ready without printing, making it a natural fit for work pants, uniforms, or casual wear.
Built for EDC, Ready for Duty
Everyday Utility: From packages and pallet straps to zip-ties and cord, the SOG-TAC Auto Compact eats through daily tasks.
Field & Shop: Reliable auto deployment and a resilient edge for roadside kits, range bags, or shop aprons.
Low-Profile: Dark blade and handle reduce visual signature—ideal for professional environments where subtlety matters.
Care & Maintenance Tips
Wipe & Dry: After use—especially around moisture—wipe the blade clean and dry to maintain edge life.
Lubricate Pivot: A drop of quality knife oil at the pivot keeps the auto action snappy.
Touch-Up the Edge: D2 responds well to ceramic rods or diamond stones; light, regular maintenance beats heavy reprofiling.
Check Hardware: Periodically inspect screws and clip for tightness.
