SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech UTX-85 Daytona Signature Series doesn’t just ride in your pocket—it commands attention. At 85% the size of the iconic Ultratech, this knife proves that compact doesn’t mean compromise. The 3.11" dagger blade, forged from premium steel and dressed in a stonewash finish, is razor-sharp, battle-ready, and unapologetically tough. Whether you’re slicing through everyday tasks or tackling something more intense, the UTX-85 delivers with ruthless efficiency. The dual-action out-the-front automatic mechanism fires and retracts the blade with a satisfying snap, reminding you why Microtech is a name that’s feared and revered.
But this knife doesn’t just perform—it stuns. The handle, made from red anodized 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, is as bold as it is durable. Titanium inlays, bubbled for texture and style, add an unmistakable edge that screams craftsmanship. This isn’t a knife that whispers in your pocket—it makes a statement. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip keeps it ready at a moment’s notice, and the integrated glass breaker ensures you’re prepared for the unexpected. Need to add a lanyard? No problem—it’s all here, crafted with purpose and precision.
At just 4.5" closed and a feather-light 3.03oz, the UTX-85 is a knife you’ll forget you’re carrying—until you need it. And when you do, it’s got your back. Proudly made in the USA, this knife embodies Microtech’s legacy of uncompromising performance, bold design, and unmatched reliability.
