Opinions on MT MA Mini Socom Tanto?

[Geoff]

I already own a Socom Elite Tanto (Limited edition 2-tone) and a UDT

I was considering a mini socom tanto,

My main question is about the locking mechanism, is it a basic liner-lock or something more exotic

Also how is the size. I'm guessing it is comparable to a BM stryker or emerson CQC7

thanks

The Mini Socoms have the basic microtech liner lock as on the fullsize socoms. It is a small knife though - sort of a tactical gent's folder if you will

The dimensions: 3 1/4" blade, 7 1/4" overall length. Doesn't feel as "tanklike" as my fullsize Socoms though...

1SKS is having a sale on them if you want to get one - just about $90 which is a pretty good deal. 1SKS also has some good pics with the mini and std socoms side by side which whould give you a good idea of the size difference:
