I’m a bit of a brand name whore and have stuck to Spyderco and Benchmade, I’ve had a few others here and there but mainly those two. Enter the Microtech MSI folder. I’m a little burnt out on automatic knives, which is really the only way I’ve ever seen this company. Apparently they do make some folders too. I just got this one so can’t say much but I like it enough to question selling off some of my collection and getting another one of these maybe in full serrated just for fun. Ejection molded rather than G10 scales but they do offer them. Knife center and Blade HQ where both out at the time. These don’t bother me at all for the price.
