Two of my favorite brands of knives are Emerson Knives and SOG Knives. They both bring top-quality materials and craftsmanship to the table. Both companies have roots with the United States military; Emerson Knives started with making custom knives for the West Coast SEAL teams, and SOG Knives originated with the MACV-SOG units over in Vietnam.

The Delica 4 Emerson Opener is a feature-rich, ergonomic knife. The Emerson function transforms the knife from a utility-only knife into weapon territory.
