Microtech Combat Troodon GEN III S-E Standard Cerakote Cel Shade TQ 4In Drop Point OTF Automatic AUMT11431TQCOMICS

The Microtech Combat Troodon GEN III S-E Standard Cerakote Cel Shade Turquoise is a precision-built OTF automatic knife engineered for high performance and standout visual appeal. Part of Microtech’s Signature Series, this knife showcases a bold, hand-painted turquoise “comic strip” Cerakote finish across both the blade and handle—giving it an unmistakable personality without compromising function or durability.

At the heart of this knife is a 4-inch single-edge drop point blade made from Böhler M390MK stainless steel, a premium alloy prized for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The blade’s Cerakote treatment not only adds a vibrant, artistic flair but also provides added surface protection for long-term field performance. The slim 0.125-inch thickness strikes a reliable balance between strength and slicing control.

Overall, the knife measures approximately 9.5 inches when open and 5.5 inches closed, offering a commanding presence without feeling bulky. Weighing in at just over 5 ounces, the Combat Troodon GEN III is robust enough for hard use yet light enough for daily carry.

Microtech’s third-generation Troodon platform includes significant internal upgrades for enhanced reliability and smoother action. Its dual-fuel drive system provides crisp, consistent double-action deployment and retraction. A redesigned button pocket reduces drag and channels away debris, allowing the knife to operate cleanly in real-world conditions with minimal maintenance.

The handle is crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, deep-engraved and anodized in the same turquoise Cel Shade motif as the blade—creating a cohesive and visually dynamic tool. Aggressive jimping along the spine and sides ensures a confident grip, even in high-stress environments. At the pommel, a hardened glass breaker adds practical utility for emergency situations without disrupting the knife’s clean profile.

The titanium pocket clip is reversible for right- or left-handed tip-down carry and features a ceramic ball detent for smooth deployment and secure retention in the pocket.

Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Combat Troodon GEN III in Cel Shade Turquoise blends elite materials, upgraded mechanics, and unmistakable style for those who demand more from their gear. Shop all styles of Microtech Knives at SMKW!
