CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESSince 1999, the Microtech Ultratech has defined the modern standard for out-the-front automatic knives, evolving through continuous refinement and field-driven innovation. The Microtech Ultratech GEN IV OTF Auto D/E Part Serrate Black Tactical represents the latest generation of that flagship design, delivering enhanced internal systems, premium materials, and a unified all-black tactical profile built for serious performance.
Measuring 8.54 inches overall with a 3.55-inch double-edge blade, the Gen IV Ultratech offers a balanced, compact platform that’s easy to carry yet substantial in capability. The dagger-style blade is crafted from M390MK steel, a high-performance alloy renowned for superior edge retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. Both edges are partially serrated, combining aggressive cutting power for rope and fibrous materials with plain sections for clean, controlled slicing. The black tactical finish reinforces its low-visibility aesthetic while helping minimize glare and signs of wear.
The handle is precision-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in a black tactical anodizing that complements the blade for a seamless, purpose-driven appearance. Strong yet lightweight, the aluminum chassis keeps the knife at just 3.61 ounces, ensuring comfortable daily carry without sacrificing structural integrity. Its slim, ergonomic design fits naturally in hand, while the textured thumb slide provides secure traction for smooth deployment and retraction. Torx screw construction ensures a solid assembly and allows for proper servicing when necessary. An upgraded glass breaker at the base adds emergency functionality without disrupting the streamlined silhouette.
At the heart of the Gen IV platform is Microtech’s Dual-Fuel Drive Train™, engineered to deliver smoother, more consistent OTF action with each cycle. Deployment is crisp and authoritative, reflecting the precision manufacturing behind every Ultratech. Crud Kutter™ technology further supports reliable long-term performance by helping reduce internal debris buildup, promoting dependable function even under demanding conditions.
Every element of the Ultratech Gen IV reflects decades of engineering expertise and a commitment to high-performance automatic design. It’s built for those who expect cutting versatility, durable construction, and confident deployment in a compact OTF platform. Whether carried daily or added to a serious collection, this black tactical Ultratech stands as a powerful expression of Microtech’s flagship innovation.
