The Microtech UTX-70 Gen IV packs serious OTF performance into a remarkably compact package. This version features a bright orange 6061-T6 aluminum handle paired with a 2.5" double-edge blade finished in a rugged stonewash. At just 1.4 ounces, it's built for those who want a capable cutting tool without the bulk of a full-size knife.
The UTX-70 Gen IV has been upgraded with Microtech's Crud Kutter and Dual-Fuel Drive Train technologies, giving this tiny automatic an impressive level of refinement. Its double-action OTF mechanism fires the blade out and retracts it with the push and pull of the integrated thumb slide, while the compact 6" overall length makes it easy to carry in a pocket, watch pocket, or small bag.
The stonewashed blade delivers a tough, utilitarian appearance that complements the vivid orange handle, while the lightweight aluminum construction keeps the knife exceptionally portable. Despite its small footprint, the UTX-70 retains the precision engineering and hard-use character associated with Microtech.
Made in the USA and backed by Microtech's limited lifetime warranty, this Gen IV UTX-70 is an ideal choice when space is limited but dependable performance still matters. It's small enough to disappear into your everyday gear and distinctive enough to stand out when you put it to work.
