Microtech MSI RAM-LOK Mini S/E Frag OD Green Aluminum, Stonewashed M390MK Folding Knife by Tony Marfione (210M-10FROD)

The Microtech MSI RAM-LOK Mini 210M-10FROD is a compact folding knife with a distinctly utilitarian design, featuring an M390MK steel blade and an OD Green aluminum handle. Frag milling improves surface grip, while the RAM-LOK system and thumb studs on both sides ensure intuitive handling.

The 81.03 mm blade features a Wharncliffe profile, a flat grind, and a stonewashed finish. This combination ensures a controlled cutting line, minimizes the visibility of fine scratches, and aligns well with the functional character of the MSI series.

M390MK – Steel with High Wear Resistance

The M390MK steel was developed for Microtech in collaboration with Böhler. Its high wear resistance promotes long-lasting sharpness, while its excellent corrosion resistance facilitates everyday use. This material is well-suited for a compact folding knife used regularly for EDC tasks.

Wharncliffe and stonewashed finish

The Wharncliffe profile offers a long cutting edge and a precise tip, facilitating controlled cuts. The flat grind ensures good cutting geometry, while the stonewashed finish reduces the visibility of minor wear marks and gives the blade a subdued, technical look.

OD Green Aluminum and RAM-LOK

The handle is made of OD Green aluminum and features a Frag milled pattern. The regular, three-dimensional texture improves grip confidence, and the RAM-LOK allows for comfortable operation from either side. The blade is opened manually using thumb studs, and the titanium clip can be repositioned to the right or left side.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes M390MK steel stand out?

M390MK offers high wear resistance and very good corrosion resistance. It is a steel developed for Microtech, well-suited for regular use in EDC folding knives.

How do you sharpen M390MK?

For sharpening, it’s best to use diamond abrasives or a guide system. The Wharncliffe profile makes it easier to control the angle along the long, relatively straight section of the edge.

RAM-LOK locks the blade in place using a crossbar that slides within the handle. The mechanism can be operated from either side, making it convenient for both right- and left-handed users.

What are the benefits of Frag milling?

Frag creates a regular, three-dimensional surface texture that improves grip. At the same time, it gives the handle a distinctive technical look.

How to care for a stonewashed finish?

The stonewashed finish effectively hides minor signs of wear and does not require any special care. However, it’s a good idea to keep the blade clean and dry it thoroughly after contact with moisture.
