SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech Ultratech sets the standard for out-the-front performance, combining tactical precision with everyday reliability in a slim, hard-hitting package. Its 3.35" drop point blade features a black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coated finish for enhanced durability, corrosion resistance, and low-reflectivity in the field. With Microtech’s signature dual-action thumb slide, deployment and retraction are lightning-fast and satisfyingly smooth, giving you immediate access to a blade that’s built to work.
But what truly sets the Ultratech apart is Microtech’s proprietary Zero Blade Play system. This cutting-edge mechanism eliminates all side-to-side and vertical blade movement when the knife is open, locking the blade in place with rock-solid stability. Whether you're cutting, piercing, or slicing under pressure, the blade stays tight and precise—every time. That level of performance is rare in the OTF world, and Microtech’s engineers have delivered it without compromising speed or simplicity.
Weighing in at just 3.5oz and measuring 5.01" closed, the Ultratech is perfectly sized for pocket carry without sacrificing strength. The aerospace-grade aluminum handle offers lightweight durability, comfortable ergonomics, and serious grip. Made in the USA with the kind of fit and finish that’s earned Microtech its elite reputation, the Ultratech is more than a blade—it’s a benchmark.
