The Hogue X1 MicroFlip is a compact folding knife designed for everyday carry, combining a proven blade profile with reliable construction in a size that doesn't bulk up your pocket. With a 2.75" wharncliffe blade made from CPM 154 stainless steel, it delivers a flat-ground edge that excels at detail work, slicing, and precision cuts—the kind of blade shape that seasoned knife users reach for when they need control and edge retention over raw cutting power. This is the right knife if you're after a no-nonsense EDC blade that handles camp tasks, food prep, and utility work without drama.

CPM 154 steel strikes a practical balance: it holds an edge longer than basic stainless grades, resists corrosion for outdoor use, and is straightforward to maintain in the field. The matte black anodized aluminum handle is lightweight and durable, sized to sit comfortably in hand during extended use while keeping overall carry weight minimal. A pocket clip is included, so deployment and secure carry are sorted from the box.
