The Microtech Scarab II Gen III Executive Stonewash Standard Blue is a refined yet hard-use out-the-front automatic built for users who demand serious capability wrapped in a professional, carry-ready package. As one of Microtech’s most robust OTF platforms, the Scarab II is engineered for strength, reliability, and smooth performance in environments where failure isn’t an option. The Gen III updates further enhance its already proven design, delivering improved action, tighter tolerances, and a refined feel that elevates everyday use.
At its core is a 4-inch M390MK stainless steel tanto blade, built for uncompromising performance. M390MK is a premium powder metallurgy steel known for exceptional edge retention, high wear resistance, and strong corrosion protection, making it ideal for demanding operational use. The tanto profile reinforces the tip for added strength during piercing tasks, while maintaining excellent control for precise cutting work. Finished in a stonewash treatment, the blade carries a subdued, low-reflective appearance that also helps conceal wear, scratches, and fingerprints over time, keeping the tool looking work-ready even after heavy use.
The Scarab II deploys through Microtech’s signature thumb slide mechanism, offering fast, positive, and reliable blade deployment with a simple forward motion. The Gen III system refines this action further, giving the knife a smoother, more controlled feel while maintaining the aggressive speed that defines the platform. Whether used in high-pressure environments or as part of an everyday carry rotation, the mechanism is designed to perform consistently under real-world conditions.
The blue aluminum handle gives the Scarab II a bold yet professional aesthetic while maintaining the strength needed for serious use. Precision-machined aluminum construction keeps weight manageable without sacrificing durability, and the ergonomic shaping ensures a secure, confident grip during extended handling. The anodized finish adds both visual appeal and surface protection, helping the knife resist wear from daily carry and field use. A tip-down pocket clip provides secure retention and quick access when it matters most.
Measuring 9.6 inches overall and weighing 5.8 ounces, the Scarab II strikes a balance between full-size capability and practical carry considerations. It delivers the reach, strength, and authority expected from a heavy-duty automatic while remaining refined enough for executive or professional environments where presentation still matters.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Scarab II Gen III reflects a commitment to precision manufacturing, premium materials, and uncompromising quality standards. Every detail is executed with purpose, ensuring long-term reliability and consistent performance you can depend on.
