The Matrix is an incredible design from the legendary Microtech Knives. This flipper knife utilizes a design that places the blade more forward because of the way the handle fits in your hand. The lower part of the handle sits closer to your hand than the top part, which tilts the blade away from you. The blade steel is very sharp and has excellent edge retention, which, combined with its forward position, makes this an incredibly slicy knife. If you need a reliable EDC knife this is the one for you!
