CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt for decisive performance, the Microtech L.U.D.T. automatic is a compact powerhouse with custom-level refinement. It deploys instantly with a firm press of the push button and locks up with authority, delivering the fast, one-handed action that’s made this platform legendary.
The 3.42-inch tanto blade is designed for reinforced tip strength and controlled cutting precision. It’s crafted from Microtech’s proprietary Böhler M390MK steel, an advanced evolution of M390 developed in collaboration with Böhler engineers to maximize edge retention and corrosion resistance. A rugged stonewash finish gives the blade a hard-use look while helping hide the marks of real-world carry.
This special edition is handmade by Marfione Custom Knives in collaboration with Microtech, elevating an already proven automatic into premium territory. The stonewashed titanium handles provide exceptional durability without excess weight, creating a knife that feels solid and responsive in hand. A textured inlay enhances grip and control, while blue anodized titanium accents add striking contrast. Double vapor blasted hardware completes the cohesive, high-end aesthetic.
A stainless steel pocket clip ensures dependable carry, and the integrated lanyard hole offers added versatility. Measuring 4.62 inches closed and weighing just 3.4 ounces, it’s built for everyday carry without sacrificing strength or presence. Proudly made in the USA, this L.U.D.T. reflects precision engineering and American craftsmanship from tip to pommel.
