The Microtech UTX-70 (30% smaller than the standard Ultratech) is one of the most friendly everyday carry, double action out-the-front automatic knives around. The diminutive size is perfect for watch pocket carry while the classy look makes it a must-have for dress carry. This version has an OD Green aluminum handles and a stonewashed M390 Tanto blade.

Brand new, direct from Microtech Knives.

Blade: Equipped with a rugged, wear hiding stonewashed finish on the grinds, the Tanto blade has a single, clean slicing plain edge with a strong piercing tip that works well for flat surface cuts. The sub-3 inch stonewashed M390 blades comes with satin flats and blasted dual fullers for added visual appeal. A double action mechanism delivers fast, smooth, and reliable operation. Press the thumb slide up to deploy and down to retract. An internal spring remains at rest in both positions to reduce wear.

Handle: The smooth, hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle has chamfered edges for comfort and smooth pocket transitions with strategic jimping for a sure grip. Slimmer than the Ultratech or UTX-85, the UTX-70 can be carried in a watch pocket or shirt pocket as well as via the clip. Construction is completed with Microtech's proprietary hardware, glass breaker end and pocket clip with individual serial number/date of production.

Carries via a stainless steel pocket clip.

A popular choice for high-end production and custom knives, M390 is relatively easy to sharpen, with toughness on par with 440C/154CM.
