Microtech UTX-85 GEN IV OTF Auto Black Handle D-E Apocalyptic Standard Blade AUMT1232410AP

The Microtech UTX-85 GEN IV OTF Automatic in Black is a compact, precision-engineered knife built for both tactical applications and everyday carry. At 85 percent the size of the full-sized Ultratech®, the UTX-85 measures 7.65 inches overall, with a 3.10-inch double-edge apocalyptic blade, offering a balance of portability and performance that’s perfect for users who demand high functionality without the bulk of a full-size knife. Despite its smaller frame, the UTX-85 maintains excellent ergonomics, providing a secure, comfortable grip for prolonged use or demanding tasks.

The blade is crafted from Böhler M390MK stainless steel, a high-performance material known for exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Its double-edge apocalyptic finish combines a rugged, battle-worn aesthetic with practical durability, making it ideal for piercing, cutting, and general utility tasks. The blade operates through a dual-action out-the-front (OTF) mechanism, ensuring smooth and reliable deployment and retraction every time. Microtech’s proprietary drivetrain system enhances performance while minimizing maintenance, and the integrated Crud Kutter™ channel keeps debris from interfering with the mechanism, maintaining smooth operation in the field.

The handle is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized black, providing a lightweight yet strong frame with excellent ergonomics. Carefully contoured jimping and handle grooves ensure a secure grip in a variety of conditions, while a glass breaker tip adds emergency utility. The UTX-85 is equipped with a reversible, ambidextrous tip-down pocket clip with a ceramic detent for flexible carry options, accommodating both right- and left-handed users with ease. Weighing just 3.1 ounces, the knife is balanced for comfort and control, making it an ideal choice for everyday carry without sacrificing strength or tactical capability.

Every component of the UTX-85 GEN IV reflects Microtech’s commitment to high-quality American craftsmanship, reliability, and innovation, making it a standout in the compact OTF knife category. Whether used in the field, on duty, or as part of a high-end collection, this knife combines portability, precision, and rugged durability in a package that’s ready for anything. Precision meets portability with the UTX-85 GEN IV OTF, featuring a 3.10" M390MK apocalyptic blade and durable black aluminum handle. Available at SMKW the World's Largest Knife Store!
