Microtech Socom Alpha S/E Black G10, Apocalyptic M390 by Tony Marfione (113-10AP)

Socom Alpha S/E Black G10, Apocalyptic the iconic Anthony Marfione design, now in a fixed blade version. The SOCOM folder was one of Microtech's first designs, which quickly became widely recognized. Soldiers and special groups operators repeatedly requested a fixed blade version. And so Socom Alpha was born, a large, powerful tactical knife made with attention to the smallest details and the best materials. A faithful companion that will never disappoint.

Socom Alpha Line - styled after the original Socom folder, is a full-tang fixed blade knife with an elite perfectly balanced blade and a full-handle and milled scales for maximum grip. Comes with a kydex scabbard with Tek-Lok attachment. The Socom Alpha® is an impressive and unparalleled tactical knife.

M390 Microclean® - a martensitic high-performance chrome steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so the blade stays sharp for a very long time (requiring minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is resistance to the formation of "wire" during sharpening. The steel has a high chromium content of 20.0% (Cr) doped with 1.9% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), and is hardened between 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter's CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.

Blade - a long S/E (Single Edge Clip Point) blade is strikingly aged with an Apocalyptic finish. Despite its thickness, the concave grind provides excellent cutting properties combined with excellent durability. The wedge bears the Microtech company logo, as well as the serial number and production date. On the back of the blade a finger notch.

Handle - profiled with finger notches. Grips made of G10 plastic attached directly to the blank with Microtech's proprietary screws. This is the simplest and most secure design that ensures the practical indestructibility of the knife. The advantage of G10 is the extraordinary strength of the material combined with almost complete insensitivity to weather conditions. The bottom of the Handle is covered along its entire length with notches (jimping) which reinforces grip security and control of the knife while working. The protruding section of the tang can be used as a glass breaker, and also includes a lanyard hole, a hole for a belaying or decorative line.

Sheath - made of carbon fiber laminated kydex, provides a secure hold on the knife in any position. TEK-LOK-type attachment to the belt or to the equipment's shoulder strap allows the knife to be carried vertically or horizontally.
