Built for rugged performance and reliable everyday carry, the Microtech SOCOM Elite Manual Folding Knife combines tactical strength with precise control. Designed by Tony Marfione, this linerlock folder delivers the durability and ergonomics Microtech is known for, making it a dependable tool for professionals, outdoorsmen, and anyone who demands real-world performance.
The 3.98" drop point blade is crafted from premium stainless steel and finished with a stonewash treatment, giving it a durable, low-glare surface that naturally conceals scratches from heavy use. The plain edge provides smooth, consistent cuts for a wide variety of tasks, while the drop point profile balances tip strength with versatility, making it ideal for both detail work and heavier cutting applications.
Manual deployment is easy and intuitive thanks to dual thumb studs, allowing controlled one-handed opening without assisted mechanisms. The robust stainless steel linerlock secures the blade firmly during use, providing reliable lockup and confidence under demanding conditions. Each movement feels purposeful, giving you precise control over every cut.
The handles are tan anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, offering a lightweight yet strong frame with a tactical aesthetic. Black textured traction inserts ensure a secure, comfortable grip in wet or challenging conditions, keeping the knife planted in your hand when precision or leverage is required. At 5.06" closed and weighing 5.6 ounces, the SOCOM Elite balances carry convenience with a solid, reassuring presence.
A stainless steel pocket clip keeps the knife within easy reach, while the lanyard hole provides flexible carry options. Proudly made in the USA, this manual SOCOM Elite continues Microtech’s legacy of precision engineering and real-world durability.
