I like the ram-lok and love the blade shape of the Microtech MSI, but the plastic/G10 scales that come with it are a really dumb design choice. I only bought one because I knew I could get OG scales to elevate it to the level which I feel this blade should come from the factory.
Got black coated aluminum with all the add-ons I wanted. Despite being hit by two hurricanes since I placed my order, OG still produced and shipped an amazing scale set! Install was a breeze, blade was easy to adjust and center and customer service is top tier.
The V2 design makes the huge choil on the MSI blade usable, as it allows your finger to rest on the handle and in the choil. It also adds weight toward the rear of the knife and these two VERY welcome additions! The slight texture of the MM1 design adds a bit of grip to manage the added heft and the coating seems to be top notch.
These guys are great people, produce an incredible product and give frequent updates. Worth the wait and well worth every penny!
