The Socom Elite sets the highest standards for tactical/utility cutlery. Since the inception of the original Socom in 1996, it has pioneered the entire line of Microtech folding knives. Over the years, many improvements have been made that have made the Socom more adaptable to different environments. You know you are buying the best tool on the market, regardless of which unique blade you choose: the clip point or the tanto. An integrated glass breaker at the base of the handle and a large pivot that allows easy opening with a glove add to its stature. The Socom's rugged reliability makes it the first choice of the special operations community.
