Microtech Marfione Custom Cypher Royalloy OTF Munroe Knives
Posted by Clayton on Feb 12th 2015
Anthony Marfione (Microtech/Marfione Custom Knives) and Deryk Munroe (Munroe Knives) have been busy in 2016 with collaborations that astound the masses. Another great collab to hit the market is called the Cypher, an OTF (out the front) knife that looks like something out of Mad Max!
Handle
D. Munroe has step milled the frame and given it sleek lines with a killer look and even better grip factor. The OTF lever has a machined texture that is step milled as well for excellent thumb feel. The matching machine stepped pocket clip set this mother off nicely! The butt end of the handle has an anodized titanium insert for some added color.
Some of the handle options have included aluminum and you can expect that to continue when the production version of the Microtech Cypher hits the market in the Winter of 2016/2017.
Blade
The 4.25" blade on the Marfione Cypher is high quality M390 stainless steel, no joking matter. It is double hollow hand ground with Marfione Apocalyptic finish. The brushed flats give it a nice contrast and just enough pop.
The Marfione high polish finish is always a treat and an unmatched polished finish that Tony is known for. The production version will expect to see the normal blade finished from Microtech Knives that include Black, Satin, Stonewash, Apocalyptic and Bead Blast.
The Royalloy stainless handle is quite solid and heavy duty. When you handle a Marfione Cypher you know its in your hand. The solid foundation and sleek lines in the handle give it a unique and sinister look. It is unlike any other Microtech OTF I have seen or held. Just when you thought Tony Marfione had produced enough OTF models, he comes back at you with more innovation. He will never stop innovating or creating, its in his DNA.
