Hogue X1-Microflip 2.75 Folder Drop Point Blade - Matte Grey

The X1-Microflip is an exceptional example of precision manufacturing. Featuring Hogue's robust button lock mechanism and their patent-pending blade retention device, this unique instrument allows the user to create stored up kinetic energy, culminating in the firing of the blade. The intuitive press of the lock button enables the knife to be easily closed with one-hand, without placing fingers in the path of the closing blade, unlike standard liner lock flippers. Designed specifically as an everyday carry pocket knife, the X1-Microflip is the first knife in the Hogue line with a blade measuring under three inches.

The 2.75" blade is available in either a Drop Point or Wharncliffe profile, with a choice of a stone wash tumbled or black Cerakote® finish. Crafted from .120" thick CPM154 steel, the blade offers superior corrosion resistance and excellent edge retention. It is cryogenically heat treated to 57-59 RC and then hand sharpened and honed, ensuring a razor-sharp edge.

The Type III hard coat anodize 6061-T6 aluminum frame is sculpted for an ergonomic grasp and comfortable one-handed deployment. The frame features an escalating indent texture for additional grip traction and includes a pointed impact pommel. The reversible clip and filler plate allow for ambidextrous tip-up carry.

The revolutionary button lock mechanism, built with Hogue's blade retention device, allows for fast, reliable, and ambidextrous flipper deployment. This unique design enables one-handed opening and closing of the knife without placing the user's hand in the path of the blade, enhancing safety and convenience.

In summary, the X1-Microflip is a remarkable example of precision engineering, combining advanced features and materials to create an exceptional everyday carry pocket knife. With its robust construction, superior performance, and innovative design, the X1-Microflip is a standout in the Hogue line of knives, catering to the needs of discerning outdoor enthusiasts and everyday carry enthusiasts alike.
