CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech UTX-85 Gen III delivers a refined balance of power and portability, and this version—with its no-nonsense drop point blade and OD Green handles—is built to perform in the real world. Sized at 85% of the Ultratech, the UTX-85 is ideal for everyday carry, offering the same speed, strength, and precision in a lighter, more compact frame. The 3.11" drop point blade is crafted from premium M390MK stainless steel with a black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating for enhanced wear resistance, reduced glare, and a sleek tactical look. The plain edge makes it a versatile tool for clean slicing and detailed cutting work.
This dual-action out-the-front automatic fires and retracts with crisp reliability using Microtech’s signature thumb slide. The Gen III upgrades bring functional improvements across the board: Krud Kutter grooves help keep the mechanism free of debris and pocket lint, while the ceramic thumb ball on the pocket clip minimizes wear and maximizes retention. Inside, the Dual Fuel Drive system ensures faster, more consistent blade deployment, and upgraded Torx hardware reinforces durability where it counts.
The OD Green anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handles are contoured for comfort and grip, giving the knife a rugged, field-ready appearance with lightweight strength. A hardened glass breaker, lanyard hole, and ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip round out the design for maximum utility. At 4.4" closed and just 3.1oz, the UTX-85 Gen III is as easy to carry as it is hard to beat. Proudly made in the USA, this blade is ready for whatever the day throws your way.
