MIcrotechs are just great knives ($500 to 1000)
For a one of a kind - Jeffrey Harkins.
Good luck!

Also, CFO Knives in PA is an excellent Microtech dealer.

To be honest when they became legal in Indiana, a few years ago, I bought 6-8 different types looking for something better than my Russell. No such luck.

They are fun toys to play with, I even keep one on my desk and use it as a later opener, but not as a potential fighting tool. There are better choices.

I do know what you mean, Kevin, about things failing.  I’ve had a $3300 custom otf fail and a $2600 otf fail.  Neither were the names I mentioned before, but they are big-name knives you’d recognize in a second.
 I’ve had a baby browning clone fail because of the striker indicator locking up,  A Seecamp fail due to a trigger malfunction, and a couple of NAAArms fail to fire, weak pin strikes or inherent rimfire reliability issues.
 It is frustrating.
