With double action, the UTX-85 allows for both automatic deployment and retraction via a stainless steel thumb slide, providing quick, one-handed operation. The 301 stainless steel pocket clip allows for secure tip-down carry, while the 6061-T6 aluminum handle provides a comfortable, solid grip. Proudly made in the USA, this knife delivers the quality and precision you expect from Microtech.
