Hogue Knives

Hogue Knives are built around precise engineering and stringent manufacturing practices that equal exceptional performance. The team is lead by Master Toolmaker Jim Bruhns and his partner Neil Hogue. Each knife that leaves the floor leverages the know-how of three generations of passionate craftsmen who are also end users.

The patterns they produce are designed by former Recon Marine, martial artist and custom knifemaker Allen Elishewitz. Allen's real-world experience both in the shop and on the field ensures that the designs are functional and ergonomically sound.

Hogue Manual folders represent the culmination of their capabilities and experience resulting in a superior balance of fit, finish and function. They have been engineered from the ground up to tackle any cutting tasks you put them to.

All of the materials are sourced in the USA. The blade of the X1-Microflip is made from CPM-154 stain-resistant steel that is cryogenically heat treated to a Rockwell of 57-59 then hand honed to a razor-sharp edge. CPM-154 offers superior corrosion resistance while providing excellent edge retention and a high degree of toughness.

The high-quality aluminum handle offers exceptional wear resistance and beauty. Each grip is carefully sculpted for outstanding ergonomics, ensuring that your Hogue knife is comfortable and secure in use.

When deployed, the X1-Microflip is held open with a tough, yet smooth operating button lock. Although a capable mechanism on its own, it's backed up with an additional manual safety that locks the knife open for peace of mind during harder use.

Beneath the scales, the button lock is mounted into an innovative, recessed stainless steel "bolster plate" to ensure rigidity and long wear. The robust, custom-made hardware on all moving parts is oversized and heat treated. Be confident that every aspect of your Hogue folding knife has been refined to offer the best possible longevity and performance.

Cons: Pocket Clip
Only one ‘micro’ flaw with my sample
Well. Two minor issues actually. First is a small amount of play or rotational movement when it’s in the closed position. Does not affect functionality but it’s noticeable. Second is (or was) the pocket clip which simply broke the first time I put it into my pocket. I had an aftermarket one (MXG Gear) for the ZT 0450 which fits & I planned to use anyway so not a big deal. Now the good - it’s a great little knife that came exceptionally sharp. It fires hard with the flipper and locks up solidly. It’s light and carries easily. Hollow grind is a plus for slicing cardboard and similar materials. Seems like a reasonable value for what you get.

Little knife...Big performance
As an EDC knife, this one is hard to beat. Light, yet very strong, with rock solid lockup. Out of the box sharp. I love the lock system and fact that a secondary lock can be deployed that absolutely prevents accidental closure. This is a great knife for the money. I own knives 2X as much that are no better. My only complaint would be the clip, or I should say I'd prefer a deep carry type.
