The Microtech Amphibian Mini Ram-Lok S/E Frag Red Aluminum, Stonewashed M390MK folding knife by Tony Marfione (137MRL-10FRRD) is a compact EDC folding knife featuring a Recurve Drop Point blade, a double-sided RAM-LOK® lock, and a red handle made of milled aluminum. The model combines Böhler M390MK steel, a flat grind, a Stonewashed finish, and a smooth-operating Ball bearing pivot.
The Amphibian Mini retains the distinctive, curved blade line of the full-size Amphibian but offers smaller dimensions and more comfortable everyday carry. A thumb stud, a reversible tip-up clip, and the RAM-LOK® lock system support smooth and intuitive operation of the folder.
Böhler M390MK – steel for everyday use
The blade is made of Böhler M390MK stainless steel, developed specifically for Microtech knives. The material provides high corrosion resistance, good edge retention, and properties suitable for regular use of a folding knife.
Recurve Drop Point, flat grind, and Stonewashed
The Recurve Drop Point profile features a distinctly curved cutting edge that helps keep the material being cut in contact with the blade. The smooth Plain Edge and flat grind promote controlled blade guidance, while the Stonewashed finish minimizes the visibility of fine scratches, scuffs, and signs of everyday use.
Frag Aluminum, RAM-LOK®, and Ball bearings
The red aluminum handle features a milled Frag Pattern, which increases the number of contact points between the hand and the surface and improves grip, control, and ergonomic comfort. The RAM-LOK® lock stabilizes the blade when open, and the ball bearing pivot ensures smooth operation of the mechanism.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for Böhler M390MK steel?
After use, clean the blade and dry it thoroughly. Despite its high corrosion resistance, do not allow moisture, salt, or corrosive substances to remain on it. Before long-term storage, you can apply a thin layer of preservative.
How to sharpen a Recurve Drop Point blade?
The curved portion of the edge is best sharpened using narrow ceramic rods, a guided sharpening system, or whetstones that match the blade’s curvature. Maintain a consistent angle and avoid flattening the characteristic recess of the Recurve profile.
How does the RAM-LOK® lock work?
RAM-LOK® uses a transversely sliding locking element that stabilizes the blade when open. The mechanism can be operated from both sides of the handle, making it easy to use the knife with either your right or left hand.
How do I care for the Frag aluminum handle?
Clean the milled surface with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Dust and dirt can accumulate in the recesses of the Frag pattern, so be sure to dry the handle thoroughly after cleaning.
How do I clean the ball-bearing axle?
Protect the area around the axle from sand and fine debris. After cleaning, apply a small amount of a light lubricant designed for knives, avoiding excess that attracts dust.
