Microtech
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Oh man I carry my Micro all the time, more than the spydercos, just because it's fun.
- Even Microtech made colab with them
- After 12 benchmade knives. I’ve gone out and got a microtech.
- Get a Microtech
- MT for fit and finish
Cons
- If you want a great knife made in the USA check out ZT, Hogue, Microtech, and Spyderco.
- Absolutely. Microtech’s heat treat in general is extremely poor. Like piss poor. The Ultratech isn’t even remotely close to the best OTF in its relative price range either. Microtech has been running on the name alone for a few years now...
- It's not as cool but it's more useful imo because the MT's plade geometry is more like an axe head. It's not a great cutter and more of a poker.
- Just me finding MT's M390 is slightly soft and the grinding quality is not consistent batch to batch. They are cool knives, but i wont completely trust them cause I had two MT failed to just regular "opening". Its quite funny if you try...
- my microtech broke in about 2 months internals snapped, I loved it when it worked though.

I do prefer Protech, Microtech and TRM for USA made!

If budget isn’t a consideration I’d look at Microtech. They have great serrated options, always have great one hand use, and you don’t have to worry about eventually sharpening those yourself.

Tacticool knife to show off to the boys? Microtech.
