SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech Amphibian carries forward a legendary design with modern materials and uncompromising performance. Purpose-built and confidently styled, this updated version delivers strength, balance, and everyday capability in a refined package.
Its 3.87-inch drop point blade is crafted from Microtech’s proprietary Böhler M390MK steel. Developed in collaboration with Böhler engineers, M390MK enhances the already proven M390 formula with improved edge retention and corrosion resistance. The versatile drop point profile offers excellent control and slicing efficiency, making it well suited for a wide range of real-world cutting tasks. Finished in a one-of-a-kind Apocalyptic treatment, the blade carries a battle-worn character that helps conceal wear while adding undeniable visual depth.
Opening is smooth and decisive thanks to the uniquely textured thumb stud, allowing for a clean flick into action. Once deployed, Microtech’s RAM-LOK ambidextrous crossbar locking system secures the blade with strength and reliability. Accessible from both the front and back of the handle, it provides intuitive, confident operation for either hand.
The handles are machined from fluted aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in a rich Merlot color that sets this Amphibian apart. The fluting enhances grip while maintaining a streamlined profile. A stainless steel pocket clip keeps the knife secure and ready for quick access, and the integrated lanyard hole adds another layer of carry versatility. Measuring 5.38 inches closed and weighing 5.9 ounces, it has a solid, reassuring feel without being cumbersome. Proudly made in the USA, this Amphibian reflects Microtech’s dedication to innovation and precision manufacturing.
Smoky Mountain Knife Works, the world’s best online knife store, is a Tennessee landmark and the world’s largest knife store, welcoming over 1.5 million visitors each year to its legendary showroom in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains—an essential destination for anyone passionate about knives.
