Microtech’s vision

Microtech Knives is known for its advanced designs – with a touch of tactical, modern, and futuristic aesthetics. In addition to their visual appeal, the knives are highly functional. Think of solid locking systems, including the Ram-Lok, Microtech’s own version of the crossbar lock, ergonomically shaped handles, and thoughtfully designed blade shapes with various finishes. Microtech also regularly collaborates with leading knife designers such as Borka Blades, Bastinelli Knives, and Robert Terzuola, resulting in state-of-the-art designs that are both functional and visually distinctive.

Microtech Amphibian

The Microtech Amphibian is a sturdy folding knife that combines the classic Amphibian blade with the innovative Ram-Lok locking system for secure, ambidextrous operation. With its sleek, striking design and technical refinement, it is not only suitable for everyday use but also a valuable addition to any collection.

Microtech Socom Elite

The Microtech Socom Elite is a folding knife that has been continuously refined since its introduction in 1996 to perform in a wide range of environments. The ergonomically shaped handle fits so well in the hand that it feels as though the knife molds to your grip. The blade stands out due to its substantial size and striking design. With its glass breaker and sturdy pocket clip, this knife is a reliable choice for both everyday and tactical use.

Microtech Standard Issue (MSI)

The Microtech Standard Issue, with its subtle tactical accents, shows a strong EDC influence—especially when compared to other Microtech series. The blade, sleek and distinctively shaped as we’ve come to expect from Microtech, is perfectly suited for everyday cutting tasks. Combined with the innovative Ram-Lok mechanism, you get an advanced folding knife that, despite its robust size, performs excellently as an EDC. This model is also available in several variants, ranging from more utilitarian to distinctly tactical.

Microtech Stitch

The Microtech Stitch pocket knife is a unique design, developed in collaboration with Sebastijan Berenji of Borka Blades. Although the blade is slightly shorter than the average Microtech blade length, this takes nothing away from the powerful, pointed shape that dominates the design and makes it instantly recognizable. The innovative Ram-Lok locking system ensures safe, ambidextrous operation.
