Microtech UTX-70 Gen IV S/E Single Edge Orange Aluminum M390MK Two-Tone Black OTF Automatic Knife (2.50" Blade) 11484-1OR

This Orange Microtech UTX-70 Gen IV is a watch-pocket-size double-action OTF, with a two-tone black-finished M390MK single edge in an anodized aluminum handle. The short blade suits the cutting a full-size automatic is too much knife for.

• Black M390MK Drop Point - Bohler M390MK holds an edge far longer than most stainless steels and shrugs off rust, though the vanadium in it means reaching for a diamond stone when the edge finally goes. The two-tone black finish leaves satin flats set against black grinds.
• Dual-Fuel Drivetrain Action - One stroke of the thumb slide sends the blade out the front. A second stroke pulls it back. Microtech rebuilt the drive system for this generation to take effort out of the travel in both directions.
• Orange Anodized Aluminum Handle - The 6061-T6 aluminum frame is anodized in bright orange, easy to pick out against a dark pack lining or a bench covered in gear. Loaded and ready, the entire knife weighs about what a pair of AA batteries does.
• Titanium Clip & Tungsten Carbide Glass Breaker - Carry is tip-down on a titanium pocket clip with a ceramic ball, and the clip reverses for either side of the pocket. A tungsten carbide glass breaker sits at the end of the handle.

The Microtech UTX-70 Gen IV

The Microtech UTX-70 Gen IV is the smallest member of the Ultratech OTF family from Microtech, built for people who want a real out-the-front action in a knife they can forget they are carrying. Every UTX-70 pairs a thumb-slide double-action mechanism with an two-piece body sized for a watch pocket or the corner of a small bag. Microtech builds each one in the USA and tunes the internals for a clean, repeatable fire and retract. As an OTF automatic, it opens with one hand when the other is busy holding a box, a cord, or a phone.
