The Microtech Scarab II Gen III Executive Tanto Apocalyptic Standard Natural Clear is a refined yet hard-use out-the-front automatic designed to bridge the gap between executive carry sophistication and field-ready performance. As one of Microtech’s most advanced OTF platforms, the Scarab II Gen III brings increased power, improved mechanics, and elevated finishing into a platform trusted by professionals who require absolute reliability in demanding environments.
At its core is a 3.9-inch M390MK stainless steel tanto blade, engineered for maximum toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. M390MK is a premium powdered steel known for maintaining a sharp edge under heavy use, making it an ideal choice for users who depend on their tools in both controlled and high-stress situations. The tanto profile reinforces the tip for superior piercing strength and structural durability, while maintaining excellent control for precision cutting tasks. Finished in Microtech’s Apocalyptic treatment, the blade carries a worn-in, battle-hardened aesthetic that helps conceal wear while reinforcing the knife’s rugged identity.
Deployment is handled through Microtech’s signature thumb slide mechanism, delivering fast, confident, and repeatable action. The Gen III Scarab platform is engineered for enhanced power and smoother cycling, giving the user a refined yet forceful deployment experience that performs consistently in all conditions. Whether operated in gloves or under pressure, the mechanism remains intuitive and dependable, reinforcing its reputation as a true professional-grade automatic.
The natural clear aluminum handle sets this Executive variant apart, offering a clean, modern aesthetic while maintaining the structural integrity expected from a high-performance tool. Lightweight yet exceptionally strong, the handle is precision-machined for a secure, comfortable grip that supports extended use without fatigue. The translucent finish gives the knife a distinctive, technical appearance that complements the Apocalyptic blade finish, striking a balance between tactical utility and executive styling. A tip-down pocket clip ensures secure carry and quick access, keeping the knife ready when it matters most.
Measuring 9.6 inches overall and weighing 5.8 ounces, the Scarab II Gen III delivers substantial cutting capability without becoming unwieldy. Its size and balance make it well-suited for duty use, field applications, and professional everyday carry where performance cannot be compromised.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Scarab II reflects a commitment to American craftsmanship, precision manufacturing, and uncompromising quality standards. Every component is built to exact tolerances, ensuring long-term durability and consistent performance under real-world conditions.
