The Microtech Exocet II OTF Automatic Knife delivers compact functionality, precision engineering, and practical everyday-carry convenience in a distinctive design. Known for its unconventional profile, the Exocet II combines the quick accessibility of an out-the-front automatic knife with the added utility of an integrated money clip. Featuring an Apocalyptic-finished blade and a black handle, this sleek Microtech offers a clean, tactical appearance while maintaining the streamlined proportions that make the Exocet platform stand out.
The 2.34-inch double-edge blade is crafted from M390MK stainless steel, a premium material valued for its excellent edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. Both edges feature a plain cutting edge, providing a continuous cutting surface for everyday utility tasks. The symmetrical double-edge profile gives the blade a distinctive appearance, while the Apocalyptic finish adds a weathered, battle-worn look that complements the knife's purposeful design. This combination of premium steel and distinctive finishing makes the Exocet II an appealing choice for Microtech enthusiasts who appreciate both performance and character.
The Exocet II features a double-action out-the-front mechanism that allows the blade to deploy and retract using its firing control. This compact operating system provides convenient access while preserving the knife's slim overall profile. Microtech's focus on precision manufacturing and innovative mechanical design is reflected in the platform's streamlined construction, offering the recognizable functionality that automatic knife enthusiasts expect from the brand.
One of the Exocet II's most distinctive features is its integrated money clip. Designed to serve two purposes, the clip allows users to carry folded bills alongside a compact cutting tool without needing a separate accessory. Its slim profile makes it easy to incorporate into an everyday-carry setup, while the combination of automatic functionality and money-clip convenience makes it a practical option for those who value efficient use of space.
The handle is constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum, a lightweight yet durable material commonly used in precision-built equipment. Its black finish complements the Apocalyptic blade, creating a coordinated tactical appearance. The aluminum construction helps keep the overall weight manageable while providing the solid feel expected from a premium Microtech design.
Measuring 5.69 inches overall, the Exocet II offers a compact format suited to users who prefer streamlined everyday-carry gear. Combining M390MK stainless steel, a double plain-edge blade, a black aluminum handle, and an integrated money clip, this American knife brand's distinctive design brings together practical utility and unmistakable styling.
