The Microtech Socom Ram-Lok S/E Frag Champagne Gold Aluminum, Champagne Gold M390MK folding knife by Tony Marfione (160RL-1FRCG-C19Z23) is a large, manual-opening folding knife featuring a Clip Point blade, a double-sided RAM-LOK® lock, and a Champagne Gold aluminum handle with a milled “Frag” pattern. The design combines Böhler M390MK steel, a smooth-operating ball-bearing pivot, and a reversible titanium tip-up clip.
The 96.52 mm blade provides a long cutting edge and a precise tip, while the flat grind ensures smooth glide through materials. Dual thumb studs and the RAM-LOK® lock allow for comfortable operation with either the right or left hand. A glass breaker located at the rear of the handle expands the knife’s functionality.
Böhler M390MK with a hardness of 60–62 HRC
The blade is made of Böhler M390MK stainless steel with a hardness of 60–62 HRC. This material provides high corrosion resistance, good edge retention, and properties suitable for intensive use of a folding knife.
Clip Point, flat grind, and Champagne Gold
The Clip Point profile offers a precise tip, a long cutting edge, and versatile geometry for everyday tasks. The smooth Plain Edge facilitates controlled cutting, while the Champagne Gold finish gives the blade a look that complements the handle.
Frag Pattern, RAM-LOK®, and ball bearings
The aluminum handle features a Champagne Gold finish and a milled Frag Pattern, which increases the number of contact points between the hand and the surface and enhances grip, control, and ergonomic comfort. The RAM-LOK® lock operates on both sides, and the ball bearing pivot ensures smooth blade opening using the thumb studs.

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 leave moisture, salt, or corrosive substances on it. Before long-term storage, you can apply a thin layer of preservative.
How do you sharpen a Clip Point blade?
Guide the blade evenly while maintaining a consistent angle along the entire length of the edge. Near the tip, reduce pressure and follow the curve to preserve the characteristic geometry of the Clip Point 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 you 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.
