The SOG Team Leader is one good camp knife.
BLADE- the FFG leaf shaped blade is perfectly designed for cutting and slice. The tip is thin, good for skinning or stabbing flesh, but too weak for prying. The AUS-8 is a good quality stainless steel.
HANDLE- the handle has GRN scales with an exposed full tang, making it very strong. The handle is very ergonomic.
SHEATH- the nylon sheath mine came with is so terrible its hilarious. You will need to upgrade the sheath immediately.
CONCLUSION- this is good for around the campsite for cutting, carving, and food prep. This is not a good survival or tactical knife.

This a pretty awesome knife I got lucky and got in close out for $20 this is an $80 knife but you can probably still find it for $50 or so. This model has been discontinued by SOG. It is made of AUS8 steel made in Taiwan very sharp. It is full tang nice leaf shape blade very nice ergo handle with jimping where it counts. The only down fall to this knife it is the sheath the velcro strap doesnt hold it right if running or climbing or hiking you might loose it. The tip of the blade is a little thin for my taste but maybe some may like it for detail work. Overall its an awesome knife for the outdoors not a survival in my opinion due to the thin tip, but great for camping chores.
