Compact, capable, and built with the precision that defines American craftsmanship, the Hogue SIG X1-MicroFlip Emperor Scorpion is everything you want in an everyday carry folding knife. With clean lines, rugged materials, and an unmistakable tactical presence, this manual folder doesn’t just perform—it stands out.
At the heart of the X1-MicroFlip is a 2.75-inch drop point blade crafted from CPM 154 stainless steel, one of the most respected blade steels on the market. It delivers excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it a trusted choice for those who rely on their gear daily. The blade wears a durable flat dark earth PVD finish that not only enhances wear resistance but gives the knife a striking, battle-ready appearance. Whether you're slicing through tough packaging, doing detailed work, or handling everyday utility tasks, this blade is up to the challenge.
Designed for smooth, fast deployment, the blade flipper works in tandem with Hogue’s precision button lock system to deliver rock-solid lockup and easy one-handed operation. You’ll appreciate the fast, fluid action every time you reach for it—there’s no assist needed, just expertly engineered mechanics and clean execution.
The handle is made from black G-10, textured and contoured for a secure grip in any condition. It offers just the right amount of tactile traction without being abrasive, and the ergonomic shape feels natural in the hand during prolonged use. Paired with the knife’s lightweight 2.9-ounce build, it’s a carry-all-day tool that won’t weigh you down.
The knife closes to a compact 3.85 inches and opens to 6.6 inches overall—an ideal size for discreet pocket carry without compromising performance. A tip-up pocket clip provides secure and convenient carry, whether you're heading to the jobsite or just running errands. Subtle yet strong, the clip complements the knife's tactical look while keeping it ready at a moment’s notice.
