The Microtech MSI (Microtech Standard Issue) is built for hard use, combining a rugged frame, aggressive blade geometry, and Microtech’s innovative RAM-LOK technology in a purpose-driven folder. This version features a 3.88-inch sheepsfoot blade crafted from premium Böhler M390MK steel with a full serrated edge and rugged Stonewash finish, giving it a hard-use appearance with enhanced cutting capability.
Microtech’s proprietary M390MK steel was developed in collaboration with engineers at Böhler to improve edge retention and corrosion resistance over the already-popular M390 platform. The spring-assisted blade deploys through Microtech’s RAM-LOK crossbar opening and locking system, allowing quick, intuitive operation with a press of the lock and a flick of the wrist.
The frag-patterned black aircraft-grade aluminum handles provide a secure, textured grip and a stealthy, tactical appearance. Stainless steel Torx hardware complements the rugged construction, while the ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip offers versatile carry. An oversized lanyard hole provides an additional carry option for those who prefer a lanyard or tether.
At 5.06 inches closed and weighing 5.08 ounces, the MSI delivers the substantial feel expected from a hard-use folder without becoming unwieldy. Proudly made in the USA, it combines premium materials, precision engineering, and unmistakable Microtech styling in a dependable everyday package.
