The Microtech UTX-85 GEN IV OTF Auto D/E Stonewash Standard Tan delivers the legendary performance of the Ultratech platform in a more compact, everyday carry-friendly design. Built at 85 percent of the size of the Ultratech, the UTX-85 GEN IV maintains the same commitment to precision engineering, premium materials, and dependable functionality while offering a slimmer, lighter profile that’s easy to carry wherever you go.
Featuring a 3.10-inch double-edge blade, the UTX-85 GEN IV is crafted from Böhler M390MK steel, a premium blade material developed for outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and durability. The stonewashed blade finish provides a rugged appearance while helping conceal the effects of everyday use. The double-edge design offers versatility and efficiency, making this automatic OTF an excellent choice for a wide range of cutting tasks.
The Double-Action OTF mechanism allows the blade to deploy and retract quickly and smoothly with the push of the thumb slide. This fast, reliable operation is a hallmark of Microtech’s automatic knives, providing users with dependable access to a capable cutting tool when they need it most. Whether it’s part of your everyday carry setup, a trusted backup tool, or a prized addition to your collection, the UTX-85 GEN IV is built to perform.
The Tan handle is constructed from durable 6061-T6 aluminum, creating a lightweight yet strong platform designed for long-term use. Despite its smaller dimensions, the UTX-85 GEN IV offers excellent ergonomics and a comfortable grip comparable to larger Microtech models. The streamlined design makes it easy to carry while still providing the strength and control expected from a premium OTF knife.
Additional features include proprietary screws and an integrated glass breaker, adding practical functionality to this compact automatic platform. Measuring 7.65 inches overall and weighing just 3.1 ounces, the UTX-85 GEN IV strikes an ideal balance between portability and capability. It’s small enough for comfortable everyday carry but still delivers the performance standards that have made Microtech a respected name among knife enthusiasts.
Proudly built with high-quality materials and Microtech’s renowned attention to detail, the UTX-85 GEN IV represents the next generation of compact OTF design. Its Tan aluminum handle, stonewashed M390MK blade, and precision automatic action make it a dependable tool that’s ready for everyday challenges while maintaining the sleek style collectors appreciate.
