Need Help for Microtechs

[spyken]

Hi,

I'm looking to buy my first Microtech and see first hand why everyone thinks it's the best prodo folder, after the Sebenza and Strider (still out of my budget).

Where are best online places are to get Microtech folders? - I'm looking at Socom and Socom Elite.

Also, is their a distinct difference in the cutting ability of the Socom Elite's slightly thicker blade, as compared to the Socom's blade?

Thanks,
Spyken
