The Salute Mini is a straight-edged compact knife suitable for a wide range of outdoorsy users as well as for tactical use and can be clipped to belt or to the edge of the pants pocket. The Salute Mini has a great design, but its biggest specialty is the movable thorn to open the blade with one hand. By adjusting its position by scrolling through the oval opening, the user achieves a setting best correlated with the proportions of his hand. The Salute Mini is the smaller counterpart to the Salute.
The 79mm long clip point blade is made of stainless steel 8Cr13MoV. When opening the knife, a multi-positional double-sided thorn integrated in a small oval hole helps the user. Once opened, the blade is secured with a simple safety pin against inadvertent closing of the knife. The handle is ergonomic, carries a rough anti-slip texture and extends downward at the end. The handle measures about 102 mm and naturally also indicates the size of the knife in the closed state. The strong edge is made of solid laminate to < exert the necessary pressure while working, and use your thumb or index finger or palm to guide the knife. All the mentioned safety features, along with the excellent coating material and simple handle guard provide grip certainty and safe knife work.
The blade bears the word SOG SALUTE MINI, the textured word SOG on the handle, and the same wording is even moulded onto the attachment clip. I know.
