The Microtech SOCOM Elite Manual Folder S/E Partially Serrated OD Green continues the legacy of one of the most trusted tactical folding knives ever produced. Since its introduction in 1996, the SOCOM Elite has set the standard for strength, reliability, and real-world performance. This manual version builds on that proven foundation with refined materials and a purpose-driven design that’s built to perform in demanding environments. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Microtech’s commitment to precision and uncompromising quality.
At the core of this knife is a 4.00-inch premium steel blade finished in a durable two-tone treatment. This finish enhances wear resistance while giving the blade a distinct, functional look. The standard edge profile delivers clean, controlled slicing, while the partially serrated section adds aggressive cutting power for rope, webbing, and other tough materials. It’s a versatile combination that allows the blade to transition seamlessly between detailed work and heavy-duty tasks.
The blade deploys smoothly using dual thumb studs, offering controlled, reliable manual operation. This straightforward system ensures consistent performance without the need for assisted mechanisms, giving you full control over every deployment. It’s designed for those who value simplicity, precision, and dependability in their gear.
The OD green aluminum handle is built for durability and control, featuring a black traction insert that enhances grip without adding bulk. The SOCOM Elite’s ergonomic handle shape naturally molds to your hand, providing a secure and comfortable hold whether you’re working barehanded or with gloves. This thoughtful design supports extended use, delivering confidence and stability in a wide range of conditions.
With a 9.00-inch overall length and a 5.13-inch closed profile, this knife offers full-size capability in a balanced and carry-friendly form. Weighing 5.36 ounces, it provides the solid feel of a serious tool without becoming cumbersome. The sturdy pocket clip ensures dependable carry and quick access, while the integrated glass breaker adds practical utility for emergency situations. A lanyard hole offers additional options for retention and customization.
The SOCOM Elite Manual isn’t just another folder—it’s a field-proven platform refined over decades to meet the demands of professionals and enthusiasts alike. Every detail is engineered for performance, delivering a knife you can rely on when it matters most.
