Microtech LUDT Automatic Knife Half Serrated Black Blade/Tan AUMT11352TA

The Microtech L.U.D.T. (Large Underwater Demolition Team) is built for reliability in unforgiving conditions, and this variant takes it even further with enhanced materials and refined features. At the heart of the knife is a 3.42-inch partially serrated drop point blade crafted from Böhler M390MK steel—Microtech’s exclusive formulation developed in partnership with Böhler. This upgraded steel offers exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance, outperforming standard M390 in real-world use. The black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating adds another layer of protection, reducing glare and resisting wear from daily abuse.

This out-the-side automatic fires hard with the press of a button and locks up solid. Deployment is fast and authoritative, thanks to the tuned internal mechanics and rugged construction. The handle is made from lightweight yet strong 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum with a durable tan anodized finish. Contoured for comfort and grip, it’s built to perform under pressure—whether on land, in the water, or anywhere in between.

Stainless steel hardware and a satin-finished pocket clip round out the build, with a lanyard hole and black paracord lanyard included for added versatility. Weighing only 3.4 ounces and measuring 4.62 inches closed, this knife carries light but punches well above its weight.

Whether you’re navigating demanding terrain or just need a trustworthy everyday cutter, the L.U.D.T. stands ready. Proudly made in the USA with the performance to prove it.
