SOG seems to catch a lot of flack on this board and I don't have the knife owning experience to disagree with that but I do have a positive experience to share.
I had a SOG kilowatt that I used at work. The only thing I I didn't like was the pocket clip. The kickout on the clip would constantly snag on things and the way it was designed it was very easily bent outward. I decided to remove the screw that held the clip on, which was also the pivot screw on the blade, to modify the pocket clip. I ended up overtightening the pivot screw and stripping it out. I shipped the knife to SOG with an explanation of what I did.
Three weeks later I received a package from SOG and inside was my knife, which had been cleaned, sharpened, and repaired a long with two stickers and a SOG hat. Not bad for a $35 knife.
