The Microtech Halo III Marfione Custom is a distinctive expression of Microtech’s single-action OTF design, combining premium materials, striking finishes, and unmistakable Marfione styling. Measuring 9.25 inches overall, this American-made automatic delivers a substantial presence while maintaining the streamlined profile that has made the Halo platform a standout among Microtech OTF knives.
At the heart of the Halo III is a 3.875-inch clip point blade crafted from premium M390 steel. The blade features a brilliant Mirror Polish finish that gives it a refined, high-end appearance while highlighting the clean lines of the clip point profile. M390 steel provides an excellent combination of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and cutting performance, making this substantial blade well suited for a variety of cutting tasks.
The 5.38-inch handle is constructed from aluminum and finished in a Black Hardcoat treatment. This dark finish creates a bold contrast against the highly polished blade while providing the knife with a rugged, purposeful appearance. The aluminum construction helps keep the handle durable and manageable while maintaining the solid feel expected from a premium Microtech automatic.
Adding to the distinctive design is the stainless charging handle, finished in a Natural Hardcoat treatment. The contrasting natural finish gives the charging handle a bright metallic appearance against the black handle, creating a visual focal point while providing the interface required to operate the single-action mechanism. Double Vapor Blast stainless components add another layer of refined detailing to the overall construction.
Unlike a double-action OTF, the Halo III uses a single-action mechanism. The blade deploys automatically with the push of the button, while the charging handle is used to manually reset the blade after deployment. This classic OTF configuration gives the Halo III its own distinct operating character and adds to its appeal among Microtech collectors.
A tip-down pocket clip provides a secure carry option, while the push-button opener and button lock contribute to the knife’s straightforward operating design. Every component reflects Microtech’s attention to mechanical detail, from the premium blade steel to the carefully selected finishes.
Made in the USA, the Microtech Halo III Marfione Custom combines a Mirror Polish M390 clip point blade, Black Hardcoat aluminum handle, Natural Hardcoat stainless charging handle, and Double Vapor Blast stainless components into a distinctive OTF automatic built for collectors and serious Microtech enthusiasts.
