Built for hard use without sacrificing refinement, the Microtech MSI (Microtech Standard Issue) is a manual folder that brings the company's renowned precision engineering into an everyday workhorse. From demanding jobsite tasks to weekend adventures, the MSI delivers the strength, reliability, and premium craftsmanship that Microtech enthusiasts expect.
The 3.88" blade is crafted from Microtech's exclusive M390MK steel, a premium stainless steel developed specifically for the brand to provide outstanding edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Whether you're making controlled cuts or tackling tougher materials, the blade is engineered to perform with confidence and maintain its edge through repeated use.
Deployment is fast and intuitive, while the innovative RAM-LOK Bar Lock provides exceptional strength and smooth one-handed operation. Microtech's signature X Button is featured on both sides of the handle, creating a truly ambidextrous design that's equally comfortable for right- or left-handed users. Completing the construction is a durable titanium backspacer that enhances rigidity and adds a premium finishing touch.
The tan anodized aircraft-grade aluminum handle offers an outstanding balance of lightweight performance and rugged durability. Precision machining provides a secure grip while keeping the knife comfortable during extended use. Measuring 5.05" closed and weighing just 5 ounces, the MSI offers full-size capability in a package that's easy to carry every day. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip keeps it securely in place and ready whenever the next task demands it.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech MSI represents American manufacturing at its finest, combining innovative engineering with premium materials to create a manual folder that's built to perform for years to come.
