The Microtech UTX-85 Gen IV OTF Auto S/E Stonewash Standard Tan strikes the perfect balance between compact carry and full-size performance. Designed as the ideal middle ground between the UTX-70 and the Ultratech, the UTX-85 delivers the cutting power, speed, and reliability that Microtech is known for in a package that's exceptionally comfortable for everyday carry. Built for users who want premium materials and dependable automatic action without unnecessary bulk, this Gen IV model continues the evolution of one of the most popular out-the-front knives on the market.
At the heart of the UTX-85 is a 3-inch M390MK steel drop point blade. This premium stainless steel is prized for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it an excellent choice for daily use and demanding cutting tasks alike. The versatile drop point profile provides a strong tip for detailed work while maintaining plenty of cutting edge for slicing and utility applications. Finished in a rugged stonewash treatment, the blade hides scratches and signs of wear exceptionally well, ensuring the knife maintains its hardworking appearance through years of service.
Deployment is fast, smooth, and dependable thanks to Microtech's proven automatic thumb slide mechanism. With a simple push, the blade deploys with authority and retracts just as easily when the job is complete. The Gen IV design further refines the action, creating a more responsive and controlled operating experience. Whether you're opening packages, tackling tasks around the jobsite, or carrying it as part of your everyday gear, the UTX-85 is engineered to perform consistently when called upon.
The tan aluminum handle combines lightweight construction with impressive strength and durability. Precision-machined for a comfortable and secure grip, it provides excellent control while maintaining the slim profile that makes the UTX-85 such a popular carry option. The tan finish gives the knife a clean tactical appearance while offering excellent resistance to everyday wear. A sturdy tip-down pocket clip keeps the knife secure and accessible, allowing for quick deployment whenever it's needed.
Measuring 7.5 inches overall and weighing only 3.4 ounces, the UTX-85 offers an outstanding balance of capability and portability. It's large enough to handle serious cutting chores yet compact enough to disappear comfortably into a pocket throughout the day. This versatility has made it a favorite among professionals, outdoor enthusiasts, and collectors alike.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech UTX-85 Gen IV reflects the company's commitment to precision manufacturing, premium materials, and uncompromising quality.
