The Microtech Mini UDT returns by popular demand, reviving one of the most respected compact automatics ever produced. This classic out-the-side design helped establish Microtech’s reputation for precision engineering and rugged dependability, and collectors have been eager to see it back in production. The new generation stays true to the legendary original while delivering the same compact performance that made the Mini UDT a favorite among enthusiasts.
This version features a 2.37" premium steel drop point blade with a clean satin finish and a partially serrated edge. The combination edge offers excellent versatility, pairing strong slicing capability with serrations that bite through tougher materials like rope, webbing, and fibrous cord. With the push of a button, the blade snaps open instantly and locks securely into place, providing the quick, reliable automatic action Microtech is known for.
The handle is crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in textured olive drab green for a rugged tactical appearance. The textured surface provides a secure grip without adding unnecessary bulk, while the aluminum construction keeps the knife incredibly lightweight and durable. Measuring just 3.25" closed and weighing only 1.2 ounces, the Mini UDT is compact enough for effortless everyday carry while still delivering serious cutting performance. A lanyard hole at the base adds another practical carry option for quick access.
Microtech’s attention to machining, materials, and mechanical precision is evident throughout the knife. Every detail reflects the brand’s commitment to building high-performance American-made tools designed to perform when it matters most.
