I just picked up one of these in the red G-10/D2 blade configuration after watching this review and several others. I always enjoy seeing nutnfancy's take on things.
This Terminus XR has been my EDC for a year now. Love it. I've updated the pocket clip to their newest version. The sent it for free - thanks SOG. Great review.
I tried a Terminus a couple years ago. My only real gripe was the clip. The design at its attachment point caused most of my pants pockets to get hung up when trying to grab out of the pocket.
I own the exact red handle he shows. I had the same issue in my pocket. They shouldn’t have set that clip back. Any pocket curls up into the clip and it’s a fight to get it out.
@@SOGKnives i also have one and really same sentiments with the clip. How much would it cost me to get the newer version clip? And would it be compatible?
This knife is freaking awesome for edc! Got a green one last year, but just got the new one from BladeHQ for Christmas..Black blade gray g10 handle scales, upgraded thinner pocket clip..same one as on the Flash XR, much more subdued. Freaking love it.
SOG flash 2 carrier for ..twelve years? Just taken a beating. Serious beating in work, and adventures of life. Nothing negative to say about it. Love SOG specifically for what the SOG flash2 has gotten me through!
DANGIT NUTN! I've had that Terminus XR on my watch list for about three months! Once again your video has compelled me to push buy....rock on dude! . Also The Aegis FR is a KILLER deal at around $20 bucks!
Just bought one of these. When I got home I started looking for reviews. Glad I bought one. For the price it is really nice. Upon watching your review I do not regret this purchase.
Nice looking knife. I prefer a knife with spring 'assist' opening, and have carried that style for over 20 years...but I still enjoy watching your reviews. 👍
The other sogs this year without it has been pretty slick, to the point it's a little bit faster than the assisted. It's kinda surprised me, blanked on the names.
Assisted knives are a thing of the past! Bearing manual knives are so good these days it's hard to tell which are assisted and which aren't. The only thing that's makes assisted not worth it for most is the fact you need two hands to shut the blade 😢
@@pneuma6421 Sorry young man, you're speaking out of your ass. I do the occasional knife and gun show. It's still no match for fast and easy, even in tight quarters or with cold stiff hands. Assist wins every time. I close my 3" and 4" S&W SWAT knives one handed and it's easy.
I had the original black one. great medium sized knife. after knocking some corners off on the flipper with a stone. Didn't care for the CF handle, might pick up the g10 version or go for the Pentagon XR. Sog is on the right track with the XR line.
Loved the german airforce history lesson. I remember watching your original SOG Flash 1 review when it came out but decided it was a little too small for my needs.
@@SOGKnives I love the old style…… I put a small bit of parachord through the lanyard hole to solve the clip issue. The thing I DO like about the older clip is how great the retention is with it.
Nutn, when are you going to review a shadow systems mr920 or dr920? With your historic appreciation if glock SAWC and reliability, I'd love to see a tabletop on what seems to be the best value and fastest growing of the glock type clones. Seems like you haven't been much of an optics guy, but their micro red dot mounting system is pretty incredible.
Awesome video man!!! 👍 I just got the Terminus XR but in the newer offering of S35VN steel. It’s crazy the price they can provide this knife at, I paid $66 on Amazon for it and that’s only $16 more than the D2 steel version. SOG IS A BEAST OF A COMPANY 🫡 The quality of every aspect of their knives is amazing, from the aesthetics to the functionality, to the materials, to the workmanship, to the cost!
I REALLY HOPE that SOG make larger versions of The Terminus models with 4 inch blades or even bigger!!They would sell very well and could make 2 versions.One version in high end budget steel(Aus 10A,14C28N steel,Nitro V) and the other version with steels like CPMS35 or S35VN steels or CTS XHP steel).
I bought this online and kind of regret it for 2 reasons, it's not assisted, ie slow deploying, and there is a ledge behind the pocket clip that snags on your pocket.
The 177 had 4 engines. Two in each nacelle. Cooling them was a major problem. I like knives with longer handles. Have a look at the Pro-tech Half Breed.
Love it Nut'n! My all time favorite WW2 aircraft is the Junker JU-87 "stukka" dive bomber. Imo the 1st really effective ground support aircraft that preceded and paved the way for modern aircraft like the Fairchild A-10 "warthog". The G model, i believe, utilized 2 enormous 30 mm autocannons, 1 under each wings weapon station making it a devastatingly effective anti tank gun ship. Hey, the terminus XR is pretty cool too. Thanks!
I have had an Ontario RAT for six years. A bit heavy but as a plumber I find ways to put it to the test. With today's economy, it is $30ish at besos land. For twice the$, I sometimes carry a Delica 4. Good luck!
Speaking of hard to sharpen knives take a look at hogue EX-A01 It's definitely a sweet knife 🔪 but I'm almost afraid to bang it up any so typically I carry a second knife with me. What's the old phrase Two is one one is none but I Digress typically I EDC and make use of the spyderco Manix 2 by the way good video 📹
I bought this knife a few months ago it only saw light use but i had one of the springs snap on me... super disappointed... other than that its a great knife. just in pieces while i figure out how to get a new spring. I couldn't wait for your review before i bought it! lol
I got a “what if’ WW2 question. If we could go back in time and give America the blueprints to a AC130 could they have built it or something similar to it? I just think it would’ve been amazing if on D-Day we had something like AC130’s flying over the beaches firing cannons down on the Germans.
I got the black clip from the S35VN carbon fiber one. I called and asked for them and put the clip in the hole closer to the right side and fixed the problem of pulling the knife out the pocket. I've bought a total of nine. The one I want is the jade g10 original one. But very hard to find. I use them so I'm not willing to pay the $500 people asking for. So if anyone got one I will pay original price cause I will use it alot lol.
i regret buying my terminus, there are so many better knives, the flipper sucks, the lock action isn't smooth, handles are slippery (especially when edc-ing without gloves) but I listened to reviewers who raved about years ago. this is not the knife for you, just get the bugout.
I prefer the old clip alot more purchase. I have the new clip wit the walnut handle. I would have like the old clip. The new clip still great but I like the old one.
Can anyone recommend someone who makes aftermarket pocket clips for cold steel knives? I'd also like find an online knife community with people that sell parts out of old knives.
This knife is a zesty morsel. The home defense vegetable garden is necessary. Green Zebras are heirloom tomatoes with a striped pattern; they are sweet like red tomatoes but give this gazpacho a lovely jade hue. To make the chilled soup extra tangy, use tomatillos or unripe red tomatoes instead of Green Zebras.
Not buying Chinese stuff if I can avoid it. So many good American choices out there. Guardian Tactical is USA made and fantastic. Microtech-like but seem better designed. Love elmax steel.
German gear was eco friendly to NONE! Amazing quality. They just couldn’t keep up with there losses as Russia and the U.S.BADASS MODEL! Love WW2 history.
This knife is junk! Had a terminus for less than a year. With in a month the clip broke and then one of the omega springs broke a handful of months down the road. I did go through sog but I had taken the knife apart to see what was wrong and oops warranty voided. Never will I own another sog and I also will not buy from blade hq. But nutnfancy I still like!
We design the pocket clips to snap to prevent major damage. We have a free pocket clip request form on our website. If you call us or just mail in your knife, we will take care of your spring issue.
@@SOGKnives well honestly that sounds great. Im not sure if your policy has changed but I can send you the emails I had received telling me that due to me taking the knife apart I voided my warrant. What do I need to do? Start a new email request for the repair?
Knives reviews are my favorite. I miss the knife clinics. Watching you chop wood and the fire burning is the most relaxing thing I can do.
This is my favorite EDC for the past 6 months. Love it!
Does yours have slight up/down blade play? My two do…..
@@evile1174 Rock solid for up/down. And just the slightest side/side.
@@jeffslaven dang mine is the opposite
SOG gets it! Those would make an awesome Christmas gift.

NUTN you need to do a feature length label maker review. My wife will defiantly watch it with me. :)
Loved the german airforce history lesson.
I remember watching your original SOG Flash 1 review when it came out but decided it was a little too small for my needs.
I love it for having 3 methods of opening plus it looks and feels great
There's something about that pocket clip that I find makes it hard to get out of pocket. I prefer their longer deep carry clips.
Yeah, it's because when you pinch the knife to pull it out that clip style makes it so you are pinching your pants pocket at the same time
that's our older style.
@@SOGKnives I love the old style…… I put a small bit of parachord through the lanyard hole to solve the clip issue. The thing I DO like about the older clip is how great the retention is with it.
So I’ve got some Black Friday shopping to do now thank you sir
I edc the carbon fiber s35vn version and love it
Human: I have a knife!
Sasquatch: No factor. (rips head off)
I'm glad this aircraft has all the accurate 'logos' on it.
Love that you're wearing the impact sports backwards in your profile cover photo
I have the terminus LT in s35 can I say bugout killer. I just like being different.
I'm a Benchmade freek, today I see this knife as just a tool but I've forgot the price on these, it can be changed 🤗🤗
Let's go Brandon!
You kids are so cute

Dude these are some challenging times. Not even hard yet. But I just wanted to say, suck it up bros. We got work to do.

Blade HQ has the Gray G-10 on Black Friday sale for $39
Nutn , why did the Benchmade 710 get discontinued ?
Yeah bring back the testing and sharpening clinics when reviewing a blade that way we can see you give an honest review.
Stay blessed brother 💯
Need you to tell me my civivi pintail purchase is a good choice. Love the KRVs!
I have the carbon fiber one, it's a good knife.
The 177 had 4 engines. Two in each nacelle. Cooling them was a major problem. I like knives with longer handles. Have a look at the Pro-tech Half Breed.
Awesome blades! Sub-$100?! 👌
What angle do you sharpen if not the factory edge?
blades are just cool
Ordered mine on the BHQ Black Friday sale for $39.99.
Only complaint about this knife is the springs broke within the first 3 days on the first one and a few weeks on the second one
Have the same knife I love it i want to get it in s35vn
Hey Nut, is tactical doodle your son? Thanks for all the reviews over ALL the years brother! Been there since the beginning!
yuuuuup
Is it better than the Benchmade 535BK-2 Bugout? Got to say for SAWC the Bugout is hard to beat.
No, but it cheaper
its made in china
Love it Nut'n! My all time favorite WW2 aircraft is the Junker JU-87 "stukka" dive bomber.

Hey, the terminus XR is pretty cool too. Thanks!
I have two terminus xr’s both have a bit of up/down play. Anyone else experience this?
Does that Terminus come in blue?
I’ll buy one in a heartbeat!
I'm at a point in my life where 50 bucks is a lot of money . Could you advise on a25 dollar flipper for edc and food ?
Big 5 sells cheap Gerber assisted knifes. But they're cheap.
I have had an Ontario RAT for six years. A bit heavy but as a plumber I find ways to put it to the test. With today's economy, it is $30ish at besos land. For twice the$, I sometimes carry a Delica 4. Good luck!
@@aaronsbraga appreciate it
Nutnfancy ....you label everything...we DO kinda like it..SIR.
hey nutn will you put together a recommended reading list?

Do they have one in S30V?

China? No.
Ugly knife. Sorry, I luv nutnfancy but I can’t agree here.
Is it American made?
Chinesium
