The Microtech Luminary Signature Series OTF Automatic blends precision engineering with premium materials in a refined out-the-front platform designed by Tony Marfione. Built for dependable performance and long-term durability, it showcases Microtech’s focus on tight tolerances, smooth action, and enhanced functional upgrades, all wrapped in a clean, modern profile that carries easily and performs under pressure.
The 3.625-inch drop point blade is crafted from Microtech’s proprietary Böhler M390MK premium steel, developed in collaboration with Böhler engineers to elevate edge retention and corrosion resistance beyond standard M390. The drop point geometry offers a strong, reinforced tip and excellent slicing control, making it a versatile performer for both detailed and heavy-duty cutting tasks. A distinctive Apocalyptic finish gives each blade a unique, worn-in character while helping disguise wear from repeated use.
The dual-action out-the-front mechanism delivers fast, confident deployment through a thumb slide that opens and retracts the blade with precision. Once extended, Microtech’s Zero Blade Play (ZBP) system locks the blade in place with exceptional stability, eliminating both side-to-side and vertical movement for a rigid, controlled cutting experience.
This Signature Series model also incorporates Microtech’s Crud Kutter system, designed to reduce internal debris buildup and maintain reliable function even in demanding environments. A self-illuminating Tritium insert embedded in the thumb slide provides low-light visibility and adds a subtle technical accent to the design.
The handle is machined from Moss Green anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, offering a balance of strength, durability, and reduced weight. Its ergonomic shaping provides a secure, confident grip, while a glass breaker at the base adds emergency functionality. A Signature Series stainless steel pocket clip ensures secure, dependable carry with a refined finish.
Measuring 5 inches closed and weighing 3.95 ounces, the Luminary delivers full-featured performance in a streamlined, pocket-friendly form. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Microtech’s commitment to advanced engineering, premium materials, and uncompromising quality.
