The Microtech UTX-70 Gen IV OTF Automatic proves that exceptional performance doesn't require a full-sized platform. Compact, lightweight, and precision-built, this fourth-generation automatic carries all the innovation and quality Microtech is known for in a package that's ready for everyday carry. Whether you're opening boxes, tackling routine cutting tasks, or adding another premium automatic to your collection, the UTX-70 is built to perform.
Its 2.5-inch M390MK premium stainless steel tanto blade features a rugged black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coated finish that enhances wear resistance while minimizing glare. Developed exclusively by Microtech in collaboration with Böhler, M390MK improves on the already impressive performance of M390 with outstanding edge retention, excellent toughness, and superior corrosion resistance. The tactical tanto profile delivers exceptional piercing strength while maintaining plenty of cutting power for everyday utility.
Microtech's renowned dual-action out-the-front automatic mechanism offers rapid blade deployment and retraction with a simple movement of the thumb slide. The Gen IV design delivers crisp, dependable action with the precision tolerances and rock-solid lockup that have made Microtech one of the most respected names in automatic knives.
The black aircraft-grade aluminum handle is lightweight, exceptionally durable, and shaped for a confident grip without adding bulk. An integrated glass breaker provides added emergency capability, while the ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip keeps the knife secure and readily accessible for left- or right-handed carry. Measuring only 3.5 inches closed and weighing a mere 1.4 ounces, it's an ideal companion for those who appreciate premium performance in a highly portable package. Proudly made in the USA, this UTX-70 reflects Microtech's relentless commitment to quality and innovation.
