The **Hogue X1 Microflip** is a remarkable pocket knife of modest proportions. The name almost suggests that you're dealing with a keychain pocket knife, but nothing could be further from the truth. It is a compact EDC pocket knife, just large enough for many common tasks.



The locking mechanism is characteristic of many of Hogue's pocket knives. They are the experts when it comes to button locks. Simple as that! The perfect adjustment of that button lock is something Hogue has mastered like no other.



Which comes in handy with this Hogue X1 Microflip. As you may have guessed from its name, this knife has a flipper mechanism. This means the calibration of the *detent* in the lock is crucial, otherwise it won't flip well. Thanks to the Hogue X1's fine calibration, it flips faultlessly every time. The combination of a button lock and a flipper makes this a remarkable achievement.



Aside from all that technical ingenuity, the Hogue X1 is also made from good materials. The blade is CPM154 steel, and the handle is made of aluminium. The backspacer at the back of the handle also serves as a glass breaker.



Hogue has knocked it out of the park with this Hogue X1 Microflip. And this American-made pocket knife is all the more impressive when you consider its price.

Venía sin apenas filo y mucho juego lateral de la hoja. Si aprietas el tornillo para fixar-la, entonces, cuesta mucho abrir y cerrar. No recomendable. La vendí a las dos semanas

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
