The Microtech UTX-85 D/E Gen IV Red Stonewash Double Full Serrated is built for those who demand compact performance without compromise. Designed as a scaled-down yet fully capable out-the-front automatic, the UTX-85 carries the same aggressive engineering DNA as its full-size counterparts, delivering speed, precision, and reliability in a package that fits naturally in the hand and disappears easily in the pocket. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Microtech’s commitment to tight tolerances, hard-use construction, and consistent field-ready performance.
At the core of this knife is a 3.13" dagger blade crafted from premium M390MK stainless steel, known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness under repeated use. The double-edge design is fully serrated on both sides, giving it aggressive cutting capability that excels in fibrous materials, cordage, and demanding utility tasks where bite and traction matter most. The stonewash finish helps mask wear, reduce glare, and maintain a worn-in tactical aesthetic that only gets better with use.
Deployment is handled through Microtech’s signature thumb slide mechanism, engineered for fast, intuitive one-handed operation. The action is crisp, controlled, and purpose-built for reliability, whether deployed under stress or used casually throughout the day. The Gen IV refinement brings improved internal precision and smoother cycling, ensuring consistent performance over thousands of deployments.
The handle is machined from durable red anodized aluminum, offering a striking visual profile while maintaining lightweight strength. At just 3.10 ounces overall, the UTX-85 is easy to carry all day without fatigue, yet solid enough to inspire confidence the moment it’s in hand. Subtle texturing and ergonomic contouring provide a secure grip, while the tip-down pocket clip keeps the knife positioned for discreet and dependable carry.
Measuring 7.5" overall, this knife strikes a balance between compact carry and functional reach, making it an ideal companion for everyday tasks, professional use, or collection display. Every detail, from the blade grind to the internal mechanism, is executed with precision and built to perform when it matters most.
