I have both the MSI and the Stitch. Kind of hard to pick a favorite. Know I'm getting ti frag scales for the Stitch made. It'll be about a month, but it's worth it. MSI I use for work along with my Sebenza. Glad to see you back and enjoying life, man!
Dam dude TI frag for the stitch ? That's sick where are you getting those from , I have a stitch and MSI both are amazing but the Stitch is just something different man it makes all my other quality knives feel stupid
It wouldn't be anywhere near as clean of a cut but it would definitely cut for a lot longer. I grabbed a polymer one with full serrations for my friend Andrew to use as a fishing knife and he beats the hell out of that thing. I will let you know in a few months how it holds up but I would suspect it will last a ridiculously long time.
Mine came with a great factory edge too. I wish the clip screws were countersunk and flush, dont dig the hole in the blade either but other than that, this knife is a solid keeper.
I have 3 currently, the carbon fiber one which just launched which I do not like nearly as much because it's kind of slippery and the g10 feels better, the g10 one shown in this video and one of the white polymer tri grip ones that released like a month ago. Maybe I will do a comparison video but I feel like that has been done to death already and I'm probably going to be trading this CF one to a buddy of mine pretty soon.
Just need to get some decent diamond stones to sharpen the hard stuff. I can sharpen K390, S90V, Magnacut, 20CV/M390 with no problem using the Work Sharp Precision Adjust sharpener with the standard diamond stones that come with it.
Got my first microtech MSI polymer strictly for work and EDC and so far it is just fantastic. Might sand the plastic edges a bit but other than that no complaints
@@RedwolfEDCTony Marfione is a slime ball. He likes to bully new brands. He literally got Axial pulled off the shelves of any place that sold Microtech. He claimed that Axial was stealing his designs when the only thing about the Axial Shift that is the same as a Microtech is that the Shift is an OTF. Axial makes a better knife for way less money so Marfione is afraid of them. It is also my understanding that Mardione has threatened to sue a lot of people who have said anything negative about his knives. He's such a jerk that his son left Microtech and started Heretic Knives (again, superior knives for less money)
Facts! At this stage of my life I work as a photographer and I moonlight as head of security at several clubs. My security gig I sit in the backroom watching cameras and radioing my team on where to go and personally having to put hands on someone maybe once a month at most. Beyond that my photography job is the easiest shit ever and the hardest thing is just editing photos for clients so yep my hands have definitely gotten soft but I'll still put your dick in the dirt with my baby soft hands. 😆
Are you planning on hammering a rail road spike into the ground with the spine of the blade? No? Then don't worry about it 🤣 Honestly these arguments crack me up especially when it comes to the spine wack test, like I have done them before in the past as a joke and just to see if it would actually work but you are talking about using the knife for the exact opposite of what it's designed for and then be upset if it doesn't perform exactly as not advertised, it's just dumb.
@patrickmccrea3455 @patrickmccrea3455 Is that really your argument man? I'm not even going to take the time to explain the physics behind how stupid that view point is, you are clearly a lost cause. Have a good day man
@RedwolfEDC ok you resort to attacking me telling me my views are stupid yeah people have told me about how arrogant you are that's ok I'll just unsub😂🤣😅
@patrickmccrea3455 Why would I possibly care if you unsub? Stay or go man it makes absolutely zero difference to me. And yep I'm so arrogant about physics which is simply a fact of life and has nothing to do with either of us, makes about as much sense as your other points. Anyways bye now

@mynamesjeff7959 There's a few places that will make them. Not hard to find. Only thing is they're backlogged but worth the wait
I had to get one because I have the same size hands you do! It's AWESOME!
Right? I'm glad you like it man, it's such a good knife for us with big mitts.
Great review. I have the MSI and the Stich. They are both great. The Stich is really growing on me. But MSI is the favorite of the two for now.
I wonder how full serrations version would compare in the cut test. Great video.👍 I'm waiting for my CF scales for the MSI from Sheppard CC.

Hell yeah stoked we could work this deal out!
Me as well man, I like this thing way way more then I thought I would.
The ram lock is almost exactly like the axis lock benchmade used in the anthem and now the narrows.
You have both versions? Let's see them on screen together!! My polymer one shows up Monday!!

I know how to sharpen man, I just don't enjoy it and I'm a busy man that sometimes doesn't have time to sleep so I just send it off instead.
I might get another MSI but the cheaper polymer and dedicate it for work

Great review! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Got out of Stockton and out of California?? Elevation requires separation! Hope alls well Kyle!
Yep I am way across the country now and much happier for it.
@@RedwolfEDC I know that’s right that’s why I moved 10 years ago 90
That mini grip tho
M390MK has a slightly higher Carbon content to increase Edge Retention. :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Its not better.
I was thoroughly disappointed in the MSI when I finally got hands on.
That's unfortunate, I absolutely love this thing.
I like my MSI Folders, so much, I just had to get the Amphibians that I like, too... :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
Get your custom scales yet?
Where can you get custom scales?
@@utubeaddict252 Shepard Custom Creations is making them now. I think I'm gonna hold off until I can get some ti scales though.
@07S60R oh ok thx!
Yooo
Yo yo
It’s a nice looking knife but I can’t support Microtech because the owner (anyone curious, Google his history).
Either way stoked you’re back!
What is the history?

Yes?
MSI.going.to.throw.your.Umnumzaan out..of.pocket?
Not throw it out, no. But it's definitely a knife that I really enjoy.
I heard bad things about the lock this is a pass for me😮

Well it Kinda defeats the purpose of calling it a lock huh?

5 screws to many
Just a bit, especially all in a line.
