The Microtech Ultratech is the flagship that helped define the modern out-the-front automatic. Built around proprietary technology and legendary American-made craftsmanship, it delivers the speed, strength, and precision that have made the Ultratech a benchmark for OTF knives.
This Gen III Ultratech features a 3.35-inch Hellhound blade crafted from premium Böhler M390MK steel and given a special one-of-a-kind Apocalyptic finish. The aggressive Hellhound profile combines distinctive geometry with a rugged, battle-worn appearance. Microtech developed its proprietary M390MK in collaboration with Böhler engineers to enhance the already impressive edge retention and corrosion resistance of M390.
The thumb slide provides rapid automatic deployment and secure lockup, while the enhanced Gen III design adds meaningful upgrades for hard-use reliability. New Krud Kutter grooves help prevent pocket lint from interfering with the thumb slide, and a ceramic thumb ball on the pocket clip helps reduce pocket wear. Upgraded Torx hardware boosts durability, while the Dual Fuel Drive system delivers lightning-fast blade deployment.
Anodized black 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum handles provide lightweight strength and a clean, tactical appearance. The ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip offers versatile carry, while the integrated glass breaker adds another layer of utility. Measuring 5.01 inches closed and weighing 3.5 ounces, this Ultratech is proudly made in the USA.
