SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech UTX-85 is a compact, high-performance out-the-front (OTF) automatic knife that’s designed for everyday carry. At 85% the size of the full-sized Ultratech, it offers the same reliable performance in a more compact and easily manageable frame. With a 3.11" premium steel tanto blade, this knife is built for precision and durability. The stonewash finish enhances the blade's rugged look while minimizing visible wear, making it ideal for heavy-duty use. The tanto blade design provides exceptional piercing capability and strength, perfect for tackling a wide range of tasks.
This dual-action automatic knife is engineered for quick, seamless operation. The thumb slide mechanism allows the blade to deploy and retract smoothly with a simple push, providing quick access in any situation. The secure lock ensures the blade stays firmly in place, whether it's open or closed, so you can rely on it when you need it most.
Crafted with contoured purple anodized 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum handles, the UTX-85 offers a lightweight yet sturdy grip that feels comfortable in hand. This high-grade aluminum construction ensures the knife withstands tough conditions without adding unnecessary bulk. Weighing just 3.1 ounces, it won’t weigh down your pocket or gear, making it a perfect addition to your everyday carry collection.
The UTX-85 is built for convenience, with an ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip that allows for easy carry in either hand. It also features a lanyard hole for additional attachment options and a glass breaker for emergency situations, adding to its versatility. At 4.4 inches closed, it offers a compact profile that’s easy to store but large enough for serious use. Proudly made in the USA, this knife embodies Microtech's commitment to precision engineering and American craftsmanship.
The UTX-85 is more than just a smaller Ultratech—it’s a tool that blends practicality with superior design, making it an excellent choice for those who need a reliable, high-quality automatic knife for everyday tasks.
