Released in 2023, the Microtech Standard Issue (MSI) is a game-changing addition to Microtech's lineup, featuring the brand's revolutionary RAM-LOK technology. This robust take on the crossbar lock showcases Microtech’s signature step-pattern design, originally popularized by the actuation switches on the Ultratech series. The RAM-LOK ensures reliable performance and smooth operation, whether you're opening the blade with a reverse middle finger flick, a thumb slow roll, or by pulling down on the RAM-LOK for a swift wrist flick deployment.
 
The MSI also boasts a thoughtfully designed large blade cutout, making it glove-friendly and versatile in any situation. The fluted carbon fiber handle scales strike the perfect balance between smoothness and a slightly tacky texture, delivering exceptional grip in standard and reverse positions. Built with rugged materials and precision craftsmanship, this knife is as durable as it is functional—perfect for outdoor tasks, tactical applications, or everyday carry.
 
Designed by Tony Marfione and proudly made in the USA, the MSI embodies the rugged innovation and reliability Microtech is known for. With its premium materials, practical design, and cutting-edge locking system, the MSI is destined to become a favorite among knife enthusiasts.
