Our official KOGC Knights ring is a signet ring, just like our Pastors ring. It
is engraved intaglio style so that when pressed into sealing wax, it's engraving can be read by the one receiving the sealed document, letter, or what-have-you. The picture of the ring's impression in sealing wax shows you what the symbols are in the bloodstone (See bloodstone under sacred symbols).
SAS are the initials of this particular Knight. The wearer's initials will be in that place.

The chief symbol in the center of the stone is a flaming torch in the middle of which is inscribed JUDE 3, and which reads "Contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints." Like the coinciding symbols on the Pastors ring, so the symbols and engraved inscriptions on the Knights ring all point to the same meanings. The torch stands for the light of Biblical truth, which makes up "the faith" of Christianity. Jude admonishes us to contend that is, fight for, battle for the Biblical faith handed down and entrusted to us by those who have gone before us, including the Patriarchs, Apostles and Prophets. The church
needs such stalwart men who know their Bibles and are well able to defend the
doctrines of the church. Thus the inscription above the torch reads side by side with sealing wax FIDEI DEFENSOR (Defender of the Faith) and below the torch ECCLESIAE
PROTECTOR (Protector of the Church).

Knights in our order understand their
calling in this present evil age to defend Biblical faith from compromise and
attacks such as is being waged from the so called Gnostic branches of the
Christian church (which are actually pagans masquerading as "liberal" Christians), as well as protect the church from false teachers, heresies, and
popular traditions and practices that would lead the church into deception and
cause it's people to fall away from the true faith. The initials right below the torch and above the Latin inscription are the initials of the owner of the ring.
Above the bloodstone and engraved into the metal is the Latin inscription IN MUNDO NON MUNDI (In the World, not of the World). Below the
bloodstone and engraved in the metal is the Latin inscription EQUITES VERDIS
CRUCIS (Knights of the Green Cross).
Like the Pastor's ring, our official cross is engraved into the shoulders of
the ring, with the five wounds of Christ set with the highest quality rubies. This
particular ring also had Jeremiah 1:5 engraved on the inside of the band by the
owner’s personal choice.
