The 4-inch tanto blade features a rugged Apocalyptic finish that gives it a battle-worn appearance while helping disguise the wear that naturally comes with serious use. This version is equipped with a fully serrated cutting edge, providing exceptional performance when slicing through rope, webbing, heavy cordage, straps, and other tough fibrous materials.

Microtech's proven double-action out-the-front mechanism delivers fast, confident deployment and smooth retraction with the push of the thumb slide. The Gen III platform introduces thoughtful engineering improvements designed to enhance reliability under real-world conditions. One of the standout features is the innovative rear porting system, which helps the mechanism shed debris and allows the knife to operate more effortlessly, even in challenging environments where dirt and dust can affect lesser designs.
The Natural Clear handle offers a clean, modern appearance while maintaining the rugged durability expected from the Scarab platform. Its contoured shape fits naturally in the hand, providing exceptional comfort and control during extended use. Textured inserts are strategically positioned to improve grip, ensuring a secure hold in wet, dry, or gloved conditions. Every detail has been engineered to maximize confidence and handling when performance matters most.
Measuring 9.7 inches overall and weighing 5.92 ounces, the Scarab II Gen III offers impressive cutting capability without feeling cumbersome. Its broad blade is the widest in Microtech's current lineup, giving it outstanding strength and slicing power while maintaining the precision expected from a premium OTF automatic. Every component reflects Microtech's commitment to precision manufacturing and uncompromising quality.
