Microtech UTX-85 GEN III D-E Stonewash Standard Tan 3.11In OTF Automatic AUMT123210TA

Built with purpose and precision, the Microtech UTX-85 GEN III D-E Stonewash Standard in Tan brings high-performance cutting capability in a compact, everyday-ready form. Measuring 85% of the size of Microtech’s flagship Ultratech, the UTX-85 maintains a familiar platform with improved carry comfort and agility. This Gen III version features Microtech’s refined double-action out-the-front (OTF) automatic mechanism, deploying and retracting the blade smoothly with a quick, confident push of the slider.

The 3.11-inch double-edge dagger blade is crafted from Böhler M390 or M390MK stainless steel, known for its high wear resistance, excellent edge retention, and strong corrosion resistance. A clean stonewash finish on the blade offers a rugged, non-reflective surface that hides wear and adds to the knife’s low-profile aesthetic. Both edges of the dagger blade are plain and razor sharp, optimized for versatile cutting, puncturing, and slicing tasks.

The tan anodized handle is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, a material prized for its strength-to-weight ratio and durability. The anodized finish gives the handle a non-glare, tactical appearance while helping resist scratches and corrosion. Ergonomic grooves along the handle enhance grip without adding bulk. At 4.38 inches closed and just 3.10 ounces in weight, the UTX-85 is pocket-friendly without sacrificing performance.

Microtech’s proprietary stainless steel hardware, tip-down pocket clip, and glass breaker are all standard, rounding out a tool designed for real-world functionality. The hardened glass breaker integrated into the base of the handle provides emergency utility without interfering with the knife’s slim carry profile. Every component is built with tight tolerances and American craftsmanship in Microtech’s USA facility.

Whether you’re a professional needing a compact defensive tool or an enthusiast looking for a premium EDC automatic, the UTX-85 GEN III in tan delivers reliable performance in a well-balanced, field-proven package. Shop SMKW to find your Microtech Knife today!
