The Microtech Socom Elite is one of the most iconic folding knives produced by Microtech, prized for its combination of durability, ergonomics, and reliability.

Based on the renowned MK-8, designer Dietmar Pohl developed the Tactical Eight, achieving a lighter and more compact tactical knife.

The robust Bowie blade, over 17 cm long and 6 mm thick, is suitable for a wide range of applications. To ensure excellent edge retention and blade resilience, the well-known D2 tool steel was selected.

The stonewashed finish creates a scratch-resistant surface and further improves corrosion resistance. A concealed hole at the end of the handle scales allows for the attachment of a lanyard (included).

The Tactical Eight Kydex® sheath, with a material thickness of 2.5 mm, provides a solid foundation for a durable and well-engineered carry system, fully meeting the demanding requirements of a tactical knife.

The Quebec series by Pohl Force is an iconic mission knife that remained at the top of the wish list of founder and designer Dietmar Pohl for several decades. In 2014, Pohl Force received exclusive permission from the original manufacturer to reinterpret the base design.

Originally developed as a Ground Forces Combat & General Purpose Weapon, this multi-purpose knife was designed for the United States Marine Corps in the early 1950s. Although never officially adopted, it clearly proved its capabilities during the Vietnam War, especially in the hands of U.S. special forces. Nearly 70 years after its first design, the modern Pohl Force Quebec Two perfectly combines classic old-school styling with high-tech modern manufacturing.

Designer Dietmar Pohl further revised the original concept, expanding the knife’s functional range. The blade of the Quebec Two is made from D2 tool steel instead of Sleipner, offering higher carbon and chromium content, significantly improving cutting performance and corrosion resistance. The blade has also been optimized with a cutting edge extended by 10 mm and an added false edge on the spine.

The Pohl Force Prepper System is integrated into the handle, allowing survival items to be securely stored inside. A tool for opening the handle screws is included. The advanced Pohl Force sheath system significantly enhances usability. The highly sophisticated sheath, made from 2.5 mm thick Kydex with belt adapter and leg strap, ensures excellent carrying comfort and versatility.

For almost a decade, Cold Steel® offered a wicked-looking little boot knife called the Culloden®. It was based on the traditional Scottish 'black knife' or 'Skean Dhu' as it is more commonly called in Gaelic, the ancient language of Scotland.

The Caledonian Edge™ features a number of modern variations and refinements over its predecessor. The blade is made of a virtually unbreakable San Mai III® construction and, like the original Skean Dhu, features a thin, sharp point, as sharp as the proverbial needle. 

The traditional tang seen on the Skean Dhu of yesteryear has been retained and provides an aggressive, non-slip platform for the thumb and forefinger, allowing for better control when using the blade to cut or pierce.

The handle of the Caledonian Edge™ has a profile that hugs the palm of the hand and a relatively thin cross-section that enhances its qualities. It is flat enough not to roll or twist in the palm of the hand, yet comfortable enough to accommodate a wide range of grip styles. A perfect blend of strength and beauty, it features a mirror-polished black Micarta superstructure and titanium bolsters.ne handed opening.

Dear Friend,
I am Paolo Bozzo and many times ml have found myself in unpleasant, pericolase and difficult situations. Designing a knife and testing it just a few afternoons in the woods is quite different than designing one trying to solve all those survival problems I have encountered in the last 25 years, both In ltaly and abroad. Mud, water, dirt, grease, blood, fatigue, night use, weak hand, limited space, trajectories, physical deficits, heat, cold, transportation, speed and much, much more...these are just some of the tests a good design must pass.

Here are some of the reasons for the WF4 Rough Wolf design.

1. Balance: it is fondamenlal that the center of gravity is shifted forward. beyond the heel, such that it decreases, i.e., saves energy when delivering the blow. one must always have the feeling that the knife falls forward.

2. Beating mass: 65% of the weight of the whole knife is between the first and second 3rd of the blade, giving maximum beating capacity in penetrating.

3. Cutting edge: due to the main core in the shape of an esse. the cutting edge is lower than the fingers of the handle, with the result that in the dynamics of the fendenle and biomechanics of the arm, the force expressed is never attenuated; especially never before the impact of the same on the object to be cut.

4. Blade height: compared to other blades, it has a significantly higher ability to dig holes.

s. Handling: excellent the ability to use the Wp4 for both coarse and precision work, this thanks to the ability to put the hand before the guard, giving absolute mastery of the blade despite its size. This is thanks to the large heel where the index finger can be inserted and the convenient thumb rest. It is also possible to do this while wearing tactical gloves.

6. Back: the inclination is reversed for 2 reasons; 1st to give forward beating mass, 2nd not to stress the wrist during use as chopping, a normal knife arrives at an angle on the object, devastating the point of impact being slight in thickness. This can only be avoided by straining the thumb-side wrist to tilt so that the back of the knife falls perpendicular on the object. The wp4 does not have this problem; it does not stress the wrist because the back of the blade already falls perpendicular to the object to be beaten.

7. Bevel: it is very high, has impressive penetration capacity.

8. Milling cutter: 5 millings placed on the blade plane for holding the knife with two hands when handling animal hides or for special uses during bushcrafting.

9. Grip: it is designed to decrease the possibility of losing the blade and avoid opening of the phalanges during pmlong use or in situations of prolonged physical deficit. Improved, anti-slip grip with internally concave Gauntlets to accommodate a Micro SurvivalKit.

As for the scabbard, I believe it is as important as the blade. I proceeded to design it and recommend its qualities; the main feature I wanted to put in designing it was the multi-positioning of the same: in particular, placing it at will on one's body or equipment facilitates the possibility of use.

This quality is particularly appreciated by military personnel, who are known to have special technical and logistical needs. For this purpose we have used in addition to Kydex the Keyblock closure, as well as the many holes along the perimeter; also safe for airdrop it has the possibility of use and positioning by both Right and Left handed operators.
