Microtech Combat Troodon GEN III S-E Standard Cerakote Cel Shade Orange 4In. Drop Point OTF Automatic AUMT11431ORCOMICS

The Microtech Combat Troodon GEN III S-E Standard Cerakote Cel Shade Orange is a bold evolution of one of Microtech’s most capable out-the-front automatic knives. Built in the USA and engineered for reliability, it combines high-end performance with a striking, one-of-a-kind finish. The hand-painted “comic strip” style Cerakote in vibrant orange covers both the blade and the handle, giving the knife a head-turning aesthetic that doesn't compromise its rugged functionality.

The 4-inch drop point blade is crafted from Böhler M390MK stainless steel—a premium steel known for its superior edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion-fighting properties. With a blade thickness of approximately 0.125 inches, it’s strong enough for demanding tasks while remaining slim and nimble in hand. The Cerakote finish not only adds a unique visual texture but also enhances durability against the elements and repeated use.

When fully deployed, the knife measures about 9.50 inches in overall length, with a closed profile of approximately 5.50 inches. Weighing just over 5 ounces, the Combat Troodon GEN III is well-balanced for daily carry or tactical use, delivering robust performance without excess bulk.

Gen III upgrades bring mechanical refinements to the Troodon platform, including a re-engineered dual-fuel drive system for smoother double-action operation. The enhanced button pocket system minimizes internal friction and sheds lint and debris—keeping the action clean and consistent over time. These changes make it more field-ready and easier to maintain in any environment.

The handle is constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, deep-engraved and anodized in matching orange Cel Shade to complement the blade. Subtle jimping along the handle’s contours improves grip security without adding discomfort during prolonged use. A hardened glass breaker is integrated into the pommel, staying flush with the body while adding critical emergency utility.

A titanium pocket clip with a ceramic ball detent offers secure, low-drag pocket retention and is fully reversible for left- or right-hand tip-down carry. Designed for versatility, aesthetics, and battle-ready performance, this Combat Troodon is equally suited for collectors, first responders, and serious knife users.
