SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech UTX-85 GEN IV T/E OTF Auto Stonewash Part Serrate Blue is a precision-engineered out-the-front automatic knife that brings Microtech’s legendary performance into a compact, carry-friendly package. At 85 percent of the size of the iconic Ultratech®, the UTX-85 maintains the high standards of reliability, ergonomics, and cutting capability that the brand is known for, while offering a more portable profile suitable for everyday carry. Measuring 7.65 inches in total length with a 3.10-inch blade and weighing just 3.1 ounces, it delivers professional-grade performance in a discreet, easily manageable form.
The blade is forged from Böhler M390MK® steel, a premium alloy recognized for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and durability. The part-serrated tanto edge combines the versatility of a serrated section for cutting fibrous materials, ropes, and cords with a plain edge section for precise slicing, giving the knife a well-rounded functionality for a variety of applications. The stonewash finish provides a tactical, non-reflective aesthetic while reducing the appearance of wear over time, ensuring the knife maintains its professional look even after extended use.
Constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum, the handle is both strong and lightweight, offering a durable chassis with ergonomic contours that provide a secure, comfortable grip comparable to the full-size Ultratech®. The anodized blue finish enhances corrosion resistance and adds a striking visual element. Proprietary Microtech screws hold the handle securely together, while the integrated glass breaker adds an additional layer of utility for emergency or tactical situations.
The UTX-85 GEN IV features Microtech’s smooth and reliable double-action OTF mechanism, enabling fast, precise deployment and retraction with a simple thumb slide. Despite its reduced size, it retains the feel, balance, and cutting power of its larger counterpart, making it ideal for everyday carry, tactical operations, or situations where quick access to a dependable blade is required. The compact design ensures discretion without compromising performance, giving users confidence in any scenario.
Engineered for precision, durability, and portability, the UTX-85 GEN IV T/E OTF Auto Stonewash Part Serrate Blue exemplifies Microtech’s commitment to quality and innovation, offering a highly capable automatic knife in a compact form factor.
