Microtech Ultratech GEN IV OTF Auto S/E Apocalyptic Part Serrate Merlot AUMT1121411APMR

The Microtech Ultratech GEN IV OTF Auto S/E Apocalyptic Part Serrate Merlot is a high-performance automatic knife that blends tactical capability with precision engineering and premium materials. Since its introduction in 1999, the Ultratech has been the flagship out-the-front model for Microtech, earning a reputation for smooth deployment, reliability, and ergonomic handling. The GEN IV iteration continues this legacy, offering refined internal mechanisms, enhanced action, and a striking merlot anodized handle that stands out in both field use and display collections.

Measuring 8.54 inches overall with a 3.55-inch blade, the Ultratech GEN IV balances full-size cutting capability with practical carry for everyday, tactical, and outdoor applications. The blade is made from Böhler M390MK steel, known for exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness under demanding conditions. Its apocalyptic finish gives it a rugged, tactical appearance while helping to conceal minor scratches and wear. The part-serrated drop-point blade adds versatility, allowing users to handle a range of tasks from precise slicing to tougher cutting jobs that benefit from serrations.

The handle is crafted from 6161-T6 aluminum and anodized in a rich merlot, offering both durability and an ergonomic, secure grip. Torx screws reinforce the construction, ensuring long-term stability even under repeated use. An integrated glass breaker adds practical functionality for emergency scenarios, making the knife a versatile tool in both professional and survival settings. GEN IV enhancements, including the Crud Kutter™ debris channel under the thumb slide and the Dual-Fuel Drive Train™, optimize blade deployment and retraction, ensuring smooth, reliable operation in all conditions.

The double-action OTF mechanism, activated by a thumb slider, allows rapid, controlled deployment and retraction of the blade. Despite its full-size profile, the Ultratech GEN IV is balanced and responsive in hand, with ergonomic contours that provide comfort and precision during extended use. Its combination of premium materials, tactical engineering, and distinctive merlot handle makes it a standout choice for collectors, professionals, and enthusiasts who demand both performance and style.
