The Microtech Scarab II Gen III is a rugged, high-performance out-the-front automatic knife engineered for demanding field operations. Drawing inspiration from the original Ultratech platform, the Scarab II Gen III is a purpose-built tactical tool trusted by military, law enforcement, and government personnel who require absolute reliability in critical situations. With improved internals and functional upgrades, this model stands at the forefront of Microtech's innovation in OTF knife design.
At the core of the Scarab II Gen III is a 3.95" Bohler M390MK stainless steel drop-point blade with a partially serrated edge and a durable stonewashed finish. This blade steel is known for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall toughness—ideal for both utility and close-quarter applications. The dual-action automatic deployment operates through a reinforced thumb slide, giving users quick, secure access to the blade under pressure.
The red anodized aluminum handles feature precision-machined chamfered edges and black 3M grip inserts, delivering excellent ergonomics and a secure grip even in adverse conditions. Microtech's Krud Kutter groove on the thumb slide helps clear debris like pocket lint, ensuring consistent function in the field. Inside, the Scarab II Gen III boasts a revolutionary dual-fuel drivetrain and a dual-spring system that delivers consistent firing force, whether dry, wet, or submerged.
Stonewashed hardware gives the knife a battle-ready aesthetic, while the reversible stainless steel pocket clip—engraved with Microtech’s signature scarab logo—offers versatile carry options. A glass breaker tip adds real-world utility in emergency scenarios, rounding out the knife’s mission-capable design. Measuring 5.75" closed and weighing 5.92 ounces, this knife combines heavy-duty performance with compact portability.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Scarab II Gen III is more than a tactical blade—it’s a specialized tool built to serve professionals who can’t afford compromise.
