The Microtech Scarab II Gen III Executive Tanto Stonewash Standard OD Green is a full-size, high-performance out-the-front automatic engineered for serious duty use, refined everyday carry, and professional-grade reliability. Built on Microtech’s legendary Scarab platform, the Gen III update enhances smoothness, consistency, and overall operational feel while maintaining the brute strength and precision that have made this model a benchmark in the OTF world. It’s a knife designed for users who expect absolute dependability under pressure, with no compromises in materials or execution.
At the core of this Scarab II is a 3.95-inch M390MK stainless steel tanto blade. M390MK is a premium powdered steel known for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it ideal for demanding environments where performance cannot drop off. The tanto profile reinforces the tip for superior piercing strength while maintaining a strong, utility-driven cutting geometry. Finished in a stonewash treatment, the blade resists the appearance of wear, hides scratches from hard use, and delivers a rugged, broken-in aesthetic that suits its tactical intent.
Deployment is fast, direct, and confidence-inspiring through Microtech’s signature thumb slide mechanism. The Gen III Scarab action is engineered for consistency, offering a smooth, controlled firing and retraction cycle that performs reliably even under adverse conditions. Whether used gloved or bare-handed, the mechanism is built to deliver repeatable performance with authority, making it a trusted tool when timing and certainty matter.
The handle is constructed from precision-machined aluminum, designed to balance strength with manageable weight. In this configuration, the Scarab II features a distinctive OD Green aluminum handle that provides both durability and a bold visual identity. Ergonomic machining ensures a secure grip under varied conditions, while the robust frame is built to withstand heavy-duty use without flex or compromise. A tip-down pocket clip allows for secure carry and quick deployment from the pocket, keeping the knife ready at a moment’s notice.
Measuring 9.7 inches overall and weighing 5.92 ounces, the Scarab II Gen III delivers a commanding presence in hand while still maintaining practical carry capability for a full-size automatic. Its proportions are purpose-driven, offering extended reach, strong blade control, and the kind of authority expected from a duty-oriented platform.
Proudly made in the USA, the Scarab II reflects Microtech’s unwavering commitment to American craftsmanship, precision manufacturing, and strict quality control. Every component is built to exacting standards, ensuring long-term durability and consistent performance in real-world applications where failure is not an option.
