CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech SOCOM Elite Stonewash T/E Partially Serrated Automatic is a purpose-built tactical blade made for those who demand performance under pressure. Whether you're in the field, on duty, or simply serious about your everyday carry, this knife delivers unmatched precision, durability, and reliability—everything you'd expect from a Microtech.
The 3.75" tanto blade is crafted from premium stainless steel with a rugged stonewashed finish and partially serrated edge. That edge gives you the flexibility to slice cleanly through tough materials like rope, cord, or fabric while still maintaining a powerful, reinforced tip for piercing tasks. The blade fires out with authority thanks to the out-of-the-side automatic mechanism, activated by a responsive push-button opener. A secure button lock ensures the blade stays locked in place during hard use.
The handle is equally impressive. Built from black anodized aluminum and shaped for a confident grip, it's enhanced with textured black rubber inserts for superior traction in wet, cold, or gloved hands. The ergonomic design offers excellent balance and control, whether you're opening boxes, cutting lines, or handling high-stakes situations.
Additional features include a stainless steel tip-down pocket clip for deep, secure carry, a lanyard hole for added customization, and an integrated glass breaker that stands ready for emergency situations. At 5.06" closed and weighing 5.6oz, the SOCOM Elite is solid in hand without being overly bulky, making it a dependable companion for tactical or utility use.
Proudly made in the USA, this knife reflects Microtech's uncompromising standards in design and manufacturing. It’s worth noting that blade steel may vary depending on availability—if you want to confirm the steel on a specific model, feel free to contact us.
