And, continuing their common “tactical” nomenclature, the MSI, or Microtech Standard Issue, they have brought us a new offering in their lineup geared toward hard use. So how does a new blade steel, new locking system, and new model hold up to their OTF and side auto knives? We just might have some thoughts on the matter.
