Built for the field and refined for serious use, the Microtech Akris is a compact fixed blade designed for hunters who demand control, durability, and dependable cutting performance. Its 3.7-inch blade provides an excellent balance of maneuverability and capability, making it particularly well suited for detailed tasks such as skinning and processing game.
The blade is crafted from Microtech’s proprietary Böhler M390MK stainless steel, offering excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. A rugged stonewash finish gives the blade a hard-working appearance while helping conceal the marks that naturally come with regular use. With a 3.33-inch cutting edge, the Akris delivers efficient slicing performance in a compact package.
The 4.5-inch handle is made from high-visibility G-10, providing a secure grip and making the knife easier to locate in the field. The ergonomic profile gives the Akris a natural, confident feel in hand, while the compact 8.19-inch overall length keeps it highly manageable. At approximately 6.2 ounces, it's substantial enough for demanding work without becoming burdensome on the belt.
Each Akris comes with a custom dark chocolate leather sheath handcrafted in North Carolina. The premium sheath complements the knife’s rugged construction while providing a comfortable and secure way to carry it in the field. Made in the USA and backed by Microtech’s limited lifetime warranty, the Akris is built for dependable performance when it matters.
