Microtech Knives Socom Elite Auto Blue 4.05in Black Part Serr Tanto AUMT161A2BL

The Microtech Socom Elite Automatic sets a benchmark for excellence in tactical and utility cutlery. Designed for those who demand performance and reliability in high-stakes environments, this out-the-side automatic knife delivers exceptional craftsmanship and rugged durability in every detail.

The 4.05″ tanto blade is made from premium M390 stainless steel, known for its outstanding edge retention and corrosion resistance. Featuring a partially serrated edge and a striking two-tone black and satin finish, the blade is purpose-built for heavy-duty cutting tasks. Its tanto profile enhances tip strength, making it ideal for piercing and precision work in both tactical and utility applications.

This dual-action automatic deploys via a textured teardrop-shaped fire button, engineered for smooth, deliberate action. The same button also functions as the lock, delivering reliable retention when the blade is open or closed. The handle is crafted from blue anodized aluminum, offering a balance of lightweight feel and solid structure. Textured 3M grip inlays, a finger choil, and a thumb ramp provide enhanced control, ensuring a secure hold even in demanding situations.

The Socom Elite Auto is more than a tool—it’s a refined evolution of Microtech’s original SOCOM series, which has remained a staple in the folding knife market since 1996. This model integrates upgraded materials and improved ergonomics without compromising the proven performance that made the original so trusted by military personnel, first responders, and field professionals.

Additional features include a stainless steel tip-down pocket clip for secure carry and a lanyard hole for added versatility. With a closed length of 5.1 inches and a weight of 5.4 ounces, it offers a robust presence without being cumbersome. Like all Microtech knives, the Socom Elite Auto is proudly made in the USA, reflecting the brand’s commitment to precision engineering and American manufacturing.

Whether you're looking for a dependable tactical blade or a high-performance tool for daily utility, the Microtech Socom Elite Auto is built to exceed expectations in every environment.
