I absolutely love mine, this IMO is the best sub $200 knife (if you opt for polymer) on the market. Great company. Lifetime warranty - can’t go wrong!

I pull back on the x button just a bit to break the drag and it flips out really fast! It’s technique in the end…everyone has there own technique. I feel pulling the lock back slightly and flipping it out with the wrist works great! I really like this knife the more I handle it!!! I got the $175 version and I think it’s totally worth it! It’s a robust smock microtech style! I am waiting for some aftermarket scales!!!

Dood! Always look forward to your content 😎

Love my MSI

Just ordered one of these knives and waiting to arrive (aside from pricing), and just like some other companies, I love some of their designs and styles. I recently recommended that Hogue make a bigger Deka, and I think this shows a great comparison 👍

I just ordered the Stitch, but yes I plan on getting all 3 that MSI and the Amphibian.

Looks like a great knife!!

Great review broski! I think your pretty much dead on. I’m interested in checking out the Stitch RAM-LOK. Word is that it is snappier than the MSI and easy to reverse flick. So I’m starting my hunt to pick one up to compare them.

I bet Microtech is planning an MSI mini/micro. A lot of colors & blade finishes.

I wish I would have watched your video before ordering. To be honest, I simply like the look of this knife.

I love the knife How do feel about the clip The clip is a little soft I wear some Ben Davis pants But if I wear a thinner material it’s not as tight as other knives I have. It seems like a thin metal

The ram lock is closer to the spyderco manix 2 lock and demko shark lock

I'm still on the fence about buying one. I like the blade size and shape which is really the selling point for me. I have catcher mits for hands so a Shaman is a little on the small side. I got the Kizer cormorant in the mail today, an impulse buy because it was half off, and its like a kids toy in my hand! 😄 Great video Dood!

Very good and detailed review of the MSI. I'll bet, that you would like the RAM-LOK Amphibian. It has more detent than the MSI. I have two Amphibians and two MSI Folders. To me, the MSI is better for EDC uses and everyday cutting tasks. The Amphibian is "Sexy!" And, has more of a Tactical feel to it; it's the one I would choose Self-Defense or SDUEDC. I absolutely luv them both. One thing to consider. The Polymer MSI is the Bargain. Especially, since Original Goat is making Titanium and Aluminum Scale Kits for them and Skiff Bearings is going to make Custom Bearings for them. So, it will be the one to Mod, first. Great Video, Bro! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)

I’m hoping for a smaller version 4” handle 3” blade same hardware Would make it more pocketable and a better EDC

Thanks for review i was on fence and glad i saw this video. Microtech isn't what it use to be unfortunately 😕

I was interested, but with the issues you spoke of and it's limited availability I won't give it a second glance.

I light spine whack and my lock fails, i know other people are having the same problem, even the detent on my Socom Bravo is super weak, i was gonna buy a stitch too but im not gonna bother, it's such a bummer because i like the knives otherwise but it's disappointing enough that i might just sell them

To each his own but it really doesn’t do much for me. I think they went a little crazy with the jimping I think it kind of cheapens the look of the knife.Hopefully that action will break in over time.

I wonder when the Microtech Special Issue will come out 🤔

Your index finger is dragging on the lock while you are trying to reverse flick the blade. There is nothing wrong with the action.

Morning brother!

I'm not a big dude and I edc 6 inch blades, so this is like a "normal" sized knife for me. And the flicking problem is more of a skill issue. 😂

Its too bad the m390MK came back baby shit soft at 58.5 on LTK's channel

In terms of 'finger flicking' the knife into deployment, it is not accurate to compare this knife to a Spyderco, or any other frame or liner lock. This is not fidgit or flicky knife. The ram lock is in a class of its own and it is better to compare apples and apples, knives that have the same form of deployment rather than try to make this knife something it is not with a wrong comparison.

I got my MSI in carbon fiber with black blade. I love it. The only knife I like more is my rick hinderer XM-18. I didn't notice any "hot spots" on my MSI. Your hands look awfully soft I bet you complain about the grip on your vacuum also. Regarding blade steel- Microtech worked closely with the engineers at Böhler to tweak the properties of M390 for better edge retention, corrosion resistance, and polishing. Maybe do your homework or a quick google search before filming so you come off as informed instead of guessing. Sorry you hurt your finger, next time be more careful when you're opening your bud light.

All you do is whine over knives 😂 so corny.

So….. I find if you use the part of the hole bigger up in the angled part it is easy to reverse flick and thumb flick. Mine fires out 🤷🏼‍♂️
