SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech Socom Elite S-E Black Spearpoint-Spike-Grind Natural Clear Signature Series is a refined evolution of a legendary tactical folder. Since its debut in 1996, the SOCOM Elite has defined durability, field-ready performance, and elite-level ergonomics. Designed for professionals and trusted by military and law enforcement around the world, this folding knife balances brute strength with precision handling.
The Socom Elite features a 3.98-inch blade crafted from ultra-premium M390MK steel, known for its exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. This version is finished in sleek black and ground in Microtech’s distinct spike-style grind—an aggressive spearpoint profile that delivers piercing power and slicing control in a single, streamlined shape. The plain edge keeps things clean and efficient for everyday tasks and tactical applications alike.
Opening is smooth and controlled, thanks to the prominent thumb stud positioned for easy access—even while wearing gloves. A sturdy liner lock secures the blade with unwavering strength during use, giving you total confidence in high-stress conditions. The rugged aluminum handle is finished in a natural clear anodization and contoured for a secure grip. It features precision-machined traction notches and a pronounced finger guard to prevent slippage under load. This Signature Series edition reflects Microtech’s dedication to craftsmanship, with subtle refinements in every detail.
At the base of the handle, you’ll find a hardened glass breaker for emergency situations, and a reliable tip-down pocket clip that ensures consistent, secure carry. Weighing in at just 4.69 ounces, the knife remains easy to carry and quick to deploy when seconds count.
Whether you’re on duty, in the field, or handling daily challenges, the Socom Elite is built to outperform and outlast. Every detail reflects Microtech’s commitment to uncompromising quality, and every part is proudly made in the USA. Visit SMKW to check out a large variety of Microtech Knives!
