The Microtech UTX-70 packs serious cutting performance into an exceptionally compact package. Measuring just 70% the size of the full-sized Ultratech, it’s built for discreet everyday carry and slips easily into a watch pocket without sacrificing the rugged performance Microtech is known for.
This UTX-70 features a 2.5-inch Hellhound blade crafted from premium Böhler M390MK steel, finished in a durable black coating. Microtech developed its proprietary M390MK in collaboration with Böhler engineers to enhance the already impressive edge retention and corrosion resistance of M390, giving this compact automatic a high-performance cutting edge.
The out-the-front automatic deploys with the push of the thumb slide and locks securely into position. Its red-anodized 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum handles provide a lightweight yet rugged foundation, while the ambidextrous stainless steel Signature Series pocket clip offers versatile carry. A glass breaker and lanyard hole add practical utility without adding unnecessary bulk.
Measuring 3.5 inches closed and weighing just 1.4 ounces, the UTX-70 is remarkably easy to carry. It’s designed to meet California’s blade carry standard, but you should always check your local knife laws before carrying any automatic knife. Proudly made in the USA, it delivers Microtech performance in a remarkably small footprint.
