Microtech Socom Elite Manual T/E Woodlands Green Handle Apocalyptic Full Serrated M390MK 161‑12APWL
The Microtech Socom Elite is a true legend in the knife world — a flagship design that has stood the test of time since its debut in 1996 and continues to set the benchmark for tactical and utility folders nearly three decades later. Over decades of relentless refinement, the Socom Elite has earned its reputation as one of the most trusted hard-use knives in the industry, beloved by collectors, military personnel, and everyday carry enthusiasts alike.
This 2026 production model brings the Socom Elite into its most refined era yet. The striking Woodlands Green 7075-T611 aluminum handle with grip inserts delivers a commanding, ergonomic feel that inspires total confidence in hand — lightweight yet virtually indestructible. The Apocalyptic-finished M390MK Tanto blade in a fully serrated configuration is an absolute powerhouse — purpose-built for cutting through the toughest materials with authority and precision.
Every detail has been carefully considered. The hardware, pocket clip, and accents all carry the matching Apocalyptic finish for a cohesive, tactical aesthetic that is as visually stunning as it is functional. The blade is marked with the Microtech logo, model, serial number, and production date — a mark of authenticity and craftsmanship on every single piece.
The free-floating liner lock provides a rock-solid, rattle-free lockup, while dual thumb studs allow for fast, smooth, ambidextrous one-handed deployment. A tip-down Apocalyptic-finished pocket clip, glass breaker, and lanyard hole round out a feature set that makes this one of the most complete tactical folders ever produced. Arriving brand new in box — 2026 production, fresh from Microtech. Proudly Made in the USA 🇺🇸
