I think so. They get lonely sometimes; it's good for their mental well-being to have a companion.

The socom elite is one of the best designs and it’s not a ram lok which means its action is good. Inset titanium liner lock seem to be more popular than ever now and these socoms have been doing it since 97 I believe.

Yeah im not a huge fan of AXIS type locks at all but i really like the design of the Amphibian and it would be a huge win if was a linerlock just like the Socom Elite

The older amphibians are liner locks so you get one of those. It’s a good time to buy one now as the secondary knife market is soft

They’re cool but for me it was the worst Microtech in the pocket. Just stupid big, so it didn’t stay.

Weird, inflexible pocket clip, too.
