Microtech Socom Alpha Tanto Stonewashed M390 Standard Black G10 Fixed Blade 114-10

The Microtech Socom Alpha is a heavy duty tactical fixed blade ready for the field or service. This tactical design has all the classic features you’d expect from Microtech including proprietary hardware, a razor sharp edge and precision fit and finish. This version has contoured Black G10 handle scales and a stonewashed M390 Tanto blade.

Blade: The long Tanto blade is saber ground for a balance of strength and cutting performance with an American-style Tanto point for added durability in piecing and good utility for cutting on flat surfaces. Heavily tumbled, the stonewashed finish is rugged and wear hiding while being more non-reflective for discreet use. High performance, Bohler M390 stainless steel delivers top-end corrosion resistance and edge retention.

Handle: The full tang blade supports 3D machined and contoured black G10 handle scales that are securely attached with proprietary hardware. The spine is proud to the scales for an enhanced feel while full jimping all the way around the handle on both the scales and spine deliver optimal comfort and traction in the hand. A hole at the pommel end allows for lanyard attachment.

Sheath: Carries via a molded, carbon fiber pattern Kydex sheath with locking DOTS belt clip.

Bohler M390: A popular choice for high-end user grade knives thanks to its exceptional edge retention, M390 has a good corrosion resistance for minimal maintenance. Another great feature of this steel is the ability to resist burr formation during sharpening. Comparable steels are CTS-204P and Duratech 20CV.
