The Microtech MSI RAM-LOK Folder S/E Stonewashed Standard Fluted Aluminum Blue is built to handle demanding work without sacrificing the precision and craftsmanship Microtech is known for. MSI, short for Microtech Standard Issue, represents the company's vision of a hard-use manual folder that combines rugged performance with refined engineering. Designed for users who need a dependable everyday companion, the MSI delivers exceptional cutting capability, premium materials, and innovative features in a package that's ready for everything from daily tasks to challenging field conditions.
At the center of the MSI is a 3.88-inch standard edge blade crafted from Microtech's exclusive M390MK steel. Developed specifically for Microtech, M390MK offers outstanding edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for demanding everyday use. The versatile single edge blade profile excels at slicing, controlled utility cuts, and precision work, while the stonewashed finish helps minimize the appearance of scratches and wear, giving the knife a rugged, well-earned look over time.
This version of the MSI stands out with its striking blue fluted aluminum handle. Lightweight yet exceptionally durable, the machined aluminum construction delivers outstanding strength while reducing overall weight. The fluted texture not only creates an eye-catching appearance but also enhances grip and control, ensuring a confident hold during demanding cutting tasks. The handle houses Microtech's proven RAM-LOK® Bar Lock system, providing secure lockup, smooth operation, and fully ambidextrous performance. Paired with the company's signature X Button on both sides, the lock is intuitive to operate whether you're right- or left-handed.
Built for real-world performance, the MSI also features a titanium backspacer that adds strength while maintaining a lightweight carry profile. A reversible pocket clip accommodates left- or right-hand carry, allowing users to customize the knife to their preferred setup. Every detail has been carefully engineered to maximize durability, comfort, and long-term reliability without adding unnecessary bulk.
Measuring 8.93 inches overall and weighing just 5.0 ounces, the MSI strikes an excellent balance between full-size capability and everyday carry comfort. Its ergonomic design, premium materials, and precision construction make it equally suited for work, outdoor adventures, or daily utility. Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech MSI RAM-LOK reflects the company's commitment to innovation, uncompromising quality, and American craftsmanship. Whether you're looking for a dependable workhorse or a premium addition to your collection, the MSI is built to exceed expectations every time it's put to use.
