The Microtech SMKW Exclusive Ultratech OTF Auto D/E Apocalyptic Standard X-Wing takes one of Microtech’s most recognizable automatic designs and gives it a distinctive starfighter-inspired makeover created exclusively for Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Proudly made in the USA, this limited-edition Ultratech combines Microtech’s proven dual-action OTF platform with custom 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum scales, X-Wing pilot uniform detailing, and a battle-worn Apocalyptic blade finish.
At the heart of the Ultratech is a 3.44-inch double-edge M390MK steel blade with Microtech’s signature Apocalyptic stonewash finish. The rugged-looking finish gives the blade a weathered, hard-used appearance while helping conceal the marks that naturally come with use. The double-edge profile delivers a distinctive, symmetrical design, while the premium M390MK steel provides the high-performance foundation expected from a flagship Microtech.
The dual-action out-the-front mechanism deploys and retracts the blade with the integrated thumb slide, keeping both operations controlled and intuitive. Microtech’s proprietary OTF design places the firing spring at rest in both the open and closed positions, a design intended to reduce stress and wear on the internal firing mechanism. The contoured chassis keeps the Ultratech lightweight and comfortable in hand, while the milled handle details add visual depth and reinforce its precision-built character.
The handle is where this SMKW Exclusive really stands apart. Crafted from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the specialized scales feature custom coloring and X-Wing pilot uniform-inspired detailing that gives the knife an unmistakable starfighter aesthetic. An integrated glass breaker adds another practical feature, while the pocket clip proudly carries the X-Wing logo. Every knife is serial numbered and includes its birthdate, adding a distinctive collector-focused touch to this limited-edition release.
Measuring 8.50 inches overall and weighing just 3.45 ounces, the Ultratech offers substantial functionality without feeling bulky in the pocket. At 5.06 inches closed, it’s compact enough for convenient carry while retaining the substantial feel and refined construction associated with Microtech.
The Microtech SMKW Exclusive Ultratech X-Wing brings together American craftsmanship, premium M390MK steel, specialized aerospace-inspired detailing, and Microtech’s iconic OTF engineering in a limited-edition package made for collectors and everyday carry enthusiasts alike.
Strap in and prepare for launch, the X-Wing Ultratech brings starfighter style, battle-worn attitude, and Microtech firepower straight to your pocket, available only at SMKW!
