I use a knife hard at work. I'm tired of the axis lock and want something better. Was hoping this was it but.... I have a dead bolt lock knife and love the design. Now if we could get it with premium materials I think I would have the perfect working folder. Looks like I might just have to design my own. 😂 Great video as always. Luv them knives brother.

[@dewarner12]

Great review. It was really helpful to see it taken apart. Thanks -

[@kristophersprague2642]

Just got mine, love it, hope to see some aftermarket support in the clip and scales!

[@shaunharrison9618]

Excellent review of this my friend. Looking forward to seeing some test results on the steel.

[@Kris_Stiletto]

I absolutely luv my Polymer MSI. I hope Original Goat makes a Titanium Scale & Skiff Bearings Kit for this one. Great Video! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)

[@Tedlindsay7Pointerdog]

Picked up the OD Green MSI in last Thursday’s drop, with shipping it cost me total $264. At that price point this knife is 🔥🔥🔥

[@thegreatgiginthesky387]

I think the screws help protect the finish somewhat. I don’t have one to check the lay down tolerances but seems like it would. Carbon fiber would be cool. Top shelf would be Titanium frag handles. The newer generation of the MSI also added a couple screws up front by pivot mid section. Looks a little more beefy. Always appreciate your knowledge and vids.

[@fredminpin]

Luv them different knife reviews 😊

[@Monsoonpain]

Just got mine. ..they mistakenly sent a partially serrated one, I ordered plain edge...but, I didn't complain because its still a great knife

[@rodneypearson6986]

I like the looks of the MSI hope to get to try one soon

[@christophwilhelm6431]

Can't get flat clip screws for 300?

[@Tedlindsay7Pointerdog]

They retail for $250

[@mynamesjeff347]

I got the frag G10 MSI amazing knife but the centering is off it's kinda driving me crazy but I'm hesitant taking it apart and attempting to fix it ( plus will it even fix it ) thanks for the video

[@mikereese15]

Cool disassembly

[@richardvirchow3390]

I love the looks of the MSI, but I just started research and have found four (4) knife reviewers who report Ram-Lok failures ( knife becoming unlocked ): Neeves Knives, Stassa23, CuttingBoardReviews CBR and Mitch Bollig - Snap Reviews. I’m continuing my research, but I’m getting the idea that the MSI Ram-Lok needs more attention by Microtech.

[@LuvThemKnives]

Wow. I hadn’t heard about that.

[@MrNiceKnife]

Hrc would be nice to know. Any flex in the G10? I just got an FRN version, great knife.

[@Hungrybird474]

Someone on KZbin was raving about the jeabrother knife on Amazon saying it’s action was better than the f5.5 . 3 times this week I heard about that thing .

[@FloridaBoyEDC]

I have been trying to figure out the difference in the MSI line. I did a review on my MSI and it was brought to my attention that mine has extra screws by the stop pin. Im guessing that’s something extra they added? I thought really the only changes they made was to the clip.

[@chriswebb3018]

Definitely interested in the Rc of these ram lock m390mk knives. If they are ht'ing the better and to a higher Rockwell then the stitch would be a good one to get.

[@BrutalJuice138]

Rockwell was barley 59

[@dougputhoff3215]

Nice review

[@Hungrybird474]

I like the stitch design . As a user it feels and does the knife things well . People freak when it comes out though . It really does fire like it’s on sauce . A flipping version has to be awesome ? Anyone

[@toxicfpv304]

hmmm i wonder why they changed the pivot system on these..... just got mine today and only torx on show side...... flat cap on the clip side

[@Iamthedudeman00]

Thanks a lot for sharing that is quite informative.:)

[@chrishinkle5982]

Thanks for sharing

[@bamabladez]

Do you know the size of the bearings? Just wondering if skiff makes that size bearings or like you said we could try bronze washers. Thanks!

[@LuvThemKnives]

My MSI is gone for performance cut testing so I can’t answer that question.

[@samsonmarks3608]

Hey, I would like to know if you would consider selling one of your MSI knives I have been looking for one, but haven’t found the one I want if you will consider, please let me know thank you.

[@TomcatEDC]

I think you should sale one😂

[@JDogg795]

Has anyone replace the factory bearings with skiffs?

[@bdpf1744]

Microtech: G10 + M390 = $300 using flat screws = + $50 having a spring action that is not mushy and gives you a satisfying reverse flick = +$100 Using micarta or CF = + $100 Using titanium = +$200

[@LuvThemKnives]

You sound a bit cynical 🤨. 🤣🤣

[@williamlenderman387]

Hope your spleen is doing okay 😂😂😂

Yeah but I grazed my gizzard all to hell !!

[@williamlenderman387]

@@LuvThemKnives SON-OF-A-BITCH!!! Hate when that happens 😡

[@noonespecial9840]

I found one @ knife center for $386 + tax = $415. It's not a cheap knife, maybe on full release it will be cheaper but being made by Microtech I doubt it. My example had the pivot screw so tight the blade wouldn't open without both hands and the bearings had scared both liners. I returned it because no matter what I did it felt like it was running on sand.

[@LuvThemKnives]

Wow ! No reason to tighten the pivot so hard !

[@noonespecial9840]

@@LuvThemKnives It was kinda ridiculous, a ratchet was needed to break the pivot loose. It seems as though they assembled it with an Impact gun and threw QC out the window.

[@worldender1972]

no i’m afraid it’s not inexpensive.you can get an ultratech for that price. microtech is way way to expensive for what your getting. it’s a label. your paying for a brand and a name.

[@DlxyRekt]

Sucks you can't get one other than buying from a reseller for $200 over msrp

[@LuvThemKnives]

In time they’ll be available in larger quantities.

[@DlxyRekt]

@@LuvThemKnives Eh thats never how it really goes with microtech folders from my experience..

[@ilzephyrli]

A loooot less tedious to assemble than the axis lock.

[@LuvThemKnives]

Agreed 👍

[@worldender1972]

if knife center is selling it for $190.00. you know they are picking them up for less than $100.00. which means your $300.00 plus dollar ultratech was bought for under $200.00. which means your $500.00 plus dollar combat troodon was bought for $250.00 less. yea now how much do you love microtech

[@Bumblesnitch]

Having sold microtechs, many of them were still 30-40% markups which is pretty standard even outside of microtech.

[@michaelwilliams5506]

I mean... That's just retail as a whole...

[@pete93704]

I don't trust that lock you can see a gap you seen how it's supposed to function properly the lock should be seated all the way up in the front give it a spine test keep bandage nearby $200.00 piece of crap
