The Microtech Mini Troodon is a compact out-the-front automatic knife designed for those who demand both performance and portability in their EDC gear. Crafted with precision, this knife stands out with its 1.99-inch premium steel plain dagger blade, finished in an apocalyptic style that adds both aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance. The blade is sharp, double-edged, and ready for action, making it an ideal choice for piercing tasks and fine cutting work.
The blade deploys swiftly and reliably with a simple push of the thumb slide, engaging the automatic mechanism that defines the out-the-front style. This dual-action feature allows for both the deployment and retraction of the blade, ensuring that the Mini Troodon is always ready when you need it and safely stowed away when you don't. The blade's thickness of .07 inches ensures that it is both durable and nimble, providing the strength needed for demanding tasks without compromising on precision.
The handles of the Mini Troodon are as meticulously designed as the blade. Made from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the handles are anodized in a distressed violet finish that is as striking as it is tough. This high-grade aluminum is known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring that the knife is both robust and lightweight. At just 2.2 ounces, the Mini Troodon is easy to carry, whether in a pocket or attached to gear using the ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip. The handle length of 3.46 inches provides a secure and comfortable grip, making it easy to maneuver during use.
One of the key features of the Mini Troodon is its ambidextrous design, which caters to both left and right-handed users. The pocket clip is designed for tip-down carry, ensuring that the knife is always in the optimal position for quick deployment. The inclusion of a glass breaker adds an extra layer of utility, making this knife not just a cutting tool but also a potential lifesaver in emergency situations.
When closed, the Mini Troodon measures 3.46 inches, making it incredibly compact and easy to conceal. Despite its small size, the overall length of 5.45 inches when open gives the knife a balanced feel, with enough blade length to handle a variety of tasks. The OTF (out-the-front) lock type ensures that the blade stays securely in place during use, while the quality of the build, proudly made in the USA, speaks to the durability and reliability of this knife.
The Microtech Mini Troodon is more than just a knife; it's a precision-engineered tool designed to meet the needs of those who require a reliable, compact, and stylish EDC knife. The combination of premium materials, thoughtful design, and American craftsmanship make this knife a standout choice for anyone who values quality in their everyday carry. Whether you’re cutting through tough materials, need a tool for self-defense, or require a reliable knife for emergency situations, the Mini Troodon is built to perform and endure.
