Great video. I have owned this knife for several weeks, and I am amazed at the sharpness of the blade. On my Edge-On-Up Sharpness Tester it scored a 140 which is better than a utility razor blade.
I love mine and it replace my ZT 562CF as my EDC. The 562CF is M390 and I like that the MSI is M390MK. I love the shape of the blade and the handle fits my hand well. I carried a Benchmade 710 for many years and I love how the RAM-LOK easily flicks open like the Axis locks do. I don’t care about the “lack of detect that was mentioned in the video”. Overall, great knife and a great value from Microtech.
Someone had mentioned stretching the spring a tad to get better detent but that would cause issues trying to put it back together, although one might be able to get a little stouter spring...that might help.
Great video! Thanks for the content. A little info you from a corrugated box maker IE cardboard box maker😂 . Your first board is called double wall. Any your second one is single wall. Just a little info for your future reviews. Thanks again for the great content just bought one of these MSI with the FRN handles!
I just got mine..after months of being sold out...I mistakenly received a partially serrated one, I ordered a plain edge. I didn't complain because its still a great knife
I know this vid is 6mo old but I just got one of these. The “detent” strength must’ve been improved because the action is similar to the drop bear from kizer or Demko shark lock. Thoroughly enjoying it. Maybe give it another shot if this was your only experience
Yes, the newer ones are actually listed as "v2," so very possible they listened to feedback. If you measure the Ramlock button and it is .250", then you have a V2.
I just got this knife and the clip was annoying so I just took it off and used some pliers and table edge to flatten it out a bit, it's significantly better and took me 2 minutes.
Just ordered one tonight. The FRN is damn near indestructible and light as a feather. I have other G10 handle knives and really don't love them. I'm excited to get more hands on with the FRN. Plus $100 more for G10 is idiotic.
@Bumblesnitch thanks for the feedback. I'm currently leaning toward the black polymer apocalyptic. I've seen some videos say it was a little too blade heavy and just didn't want that.
@@doodysdaggers hella dumb but that’s how they create the want and drive and will also be able to use that to at some point up the price to I think. I could be wrong though.
Glad I wasn't able to get one, not impressed with it. Soft M390 and everyone is complaining about the mushy action. I've also heard several people complaining about really bad lock stick.
Oh everyone is complaining😂😂😂😂I own 3 and never had an issue with any of them,And I beat the shit out of these things and they’ve never failed me. I’ve had more issues with Benchmade with their springs breaking in the Bugout. Every knife company has its issues but using a statement like Everyone is complaining lol…Must be nice to Here from everyone who owns these knives.
@@1977NOBODYI just ordered one. It'll be my first legitimate microtech. I just adore how they look. I think they've adjusted the heat treat by this point.
