The Microtech UTX‑85 Gen IV D/E Apocalyptic Full Serrate Black delivers full-sized performance in a compact, highly capable package. Measuring 7.65 inches overall with a 3.10-inch double-edge blade, this OTF automatic is built for precision, reliability, and tactical readiness. Despite being 85 percent the size of the standard Ultratech®, the UTX‑85 maintains excellent ergonomics, providing a comfortable and secure grip that feels natural in the hand. Its compact dimensions make it ideal for everyday carry while preserving the high standards of performance Microtech is known for.

The blade is crafted from Böhler M390MK® stainless steel, a premium material renowned for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall toughness. The full-serrated dagger profile is designed for maximum cutting efficiency and versatility, making it effective for tactical applications, emergency situations, and heavy-duty cutting tasks. The apocalyptic finish on the blade adds a rugged, low-reflective aesthetic that hides wear while giving the knife a striking, tactical look.

The handle is made from anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, ensuring lightweight strength and durability. Proprietary Torx screws secure the construction for long-term reliability. Integrated into the handle is a glass breaker tip, adding emergency utility without compromising ergonomics or balance. The black finish gives the knife a tactical, understated look, making it suitable for serious users who prefer function over flash.

Microtech’s Gen IV design upgrades are evident in the UTX‑85. The internal drive train is refined for smoother, more reliable deployment and retraction, while the Crud Kutter™ feature helps prevent debris from interfering with the mechanism. Each deployment is precise, giving you confidence in the knife’s readiness whenever it’s needed. Despite its smaller size, the UTX‑85 retains the strength, speed, and durability of its larger counterpart, making it a dependable choice for collectors, enthusiasts, and professionals alike.

This knife represents a careful balance of compact carry, tactical utility, and high-quality construction. Whether for daily use, emergency preparedness, or adding a premium automatic knife to a collection, the UTX‑85 Gen IV D/E Apocalyptic Full Serrate Black delivers on every front with precision and reliability. Compact, tactical, and razor-sharp—the black UTX‑85 Gen IV is built to perform. Available at SMKW.
