Microtech UTX-85 GEN III D-E Stonewash AP Standard Blue 3.10In OTF Automatic AUMT123210APBL

The Microtech UTX-85 GEN III D-E Stonewash AP Standard Blue is a compact powerhouse designed to deliver the same high standards of performance and reliability as its larger predecessor, the Ultratech®, in a more pocket-friendly package. At 85 percent of the Ultratech’s size, the UTX-85 measures 7.65 inches overall with a 3.10-inch blade, making it ideal for everyday carry without sacrificing the ruggedness and quality that Microtech is known for.

Crafted in the USA from premium materials, the UTX-85 features a 6061-T6 anodized aluminum handle finished in a vibrant blue that offers excellent grip and durability. The handle houses a double-action out-the-front (OTF) automatic mechanism controlled by a smooth, responsive thumb slide, allowing for quick blade deployment and retraction. Built with proprietary screws and hardware, this knife is engineered for long-lasting reliability and ease of maintenance.

At the core of the UTX-85 is the blade, forged from Böhler M390MK® steel—a high-performance stainless steel renowned for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The blade’s stonewash finish not only adds a rugged aesthetic but also helps mask scratches and wear over time, ensuring the knife maintains its sharp, clean look even after heavy use. Its dagger-style double-edge profile is ground for precision cutting and piercing tasks, making the knife a versatile tool for both tactical and everyday applications.

Weighing just 3.1 ounces, the UTX-85 strikes an ideal balance between lightweight carry and substantial feel in hand. The ergonomics closely match those of the Ultratech®, despite the smaller size, offering a secure, comfortable grip during use. Additional practical features include an integrated glass breaker and a stainless steel tip-down pocket clip, providing both utility and convenient carry options.

This knife is built for users who demand peak performance in a compact form factor. Whether you’re a collector, a tactical enthusiast, or someone who appreciates reliable everyday tools, the Microtech UTX-85 GEN III D-E Stonewash AP Standard Blue offers the precision, craftsmanship, and dependability that have made Microtech a leader in the automatic knife world.
