Microtech Combat Troodon Gen III Signature Series Interceptor OTF Automatic Black Drop Point/Merlot AUMT12171MRS

The Microtech Combat Troodon Gen III with a black coated blade takes everything elite users demand from an OTF automatic and delivers it with stealth and strength. Its 3.81" premium steel dagger blade features a sleek black coating and half serrations—ideal for piercing, slicing, and ripping through heavy-duty materials in mission-critical situations. The double-edge design gives you twice the cutting surface in a single, fast-deploying package, built for those who operate in high-stress, real-world environments.

The handles are anodized merlot aircraft-grade aluminum, contoured for a firm, glove-friendly grip and engineered to stand up to daily wear. At 9.5" open and weighing 5.43oz, this is one of the biggest OTF knives on the market—bold, solid, and absolutely reliable. It comes equipped with a glass breaker, lanyard hole, and Microtech’s Signature Series stainless steel pocket clip with a ceramic ball insert to reduce friction and preserve your pockets.

This Gen III model upgrades the platform with several battle-ready enhancements. The newly designed Krud Kutter grooves in the thumb slide help keep dirt and debris out, ensuring a clean, fast deployment every time. The upgraded Torx hardware offers improved durability and easier maintenance, while Microtech’s advanced Dual Fuel Drive system gives the blade snappier, more consistent action whether you're deploying or retracting it under pressure.

From the field to the frontlines, the Combat Troodon Gen III stands ready to perform. Proudly made in the USA and engineered for those who need gear that won’t back down.
