The Microtech Star Lord Sub-Frame Lock Bar Folding Knife delivers serious performance in a refined, purpose-driven design built for demanding users. With its substantial build and precise machining, it offers strength, control, and dependable operation in a platform that’s ready for hard use. Measuring 5.25" closed and weighing 8.65 ounces, it carries with authority while maintaining balanced ergonomics.
The 3.75" drop point recurve blade is crafted from M390MK premium steel, a high-performance material known for exceptional edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion protection. The bead-blasted finish provides a subdued, professional appearance while reducing glare and enhancing the knife’s rugged character. The drop point profile delivers a versatile cutting edge with a reinforced tip, and the recurve geometry increases slicing efficiency, helping the blade power through a wide range of cutting tasks with control and precision.
This is a manual folder equipped with a blade flipper for quick, confident deployment. The action is supported by a robust sub-frame lock bar that provides strong, reliable lockup. Designed for durability, the lock mechanism reinforces structural integrity while allowing smooth operation, giving you the confidence you’d expect from a premium-built knife.
The black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum handles provide strength without unnecessary weight. The anodized finish enhances durability and resistance to wear, while the contoured design ensures a secure and comfortable grip during extended use. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip allows for versatile carry, keeping the knife accessible and positioned for efficient draw from either side.
