The Microtech Ultratech is a prime example of innovation and precision in out-the-front (OTF) automatic knives. This knife features a 3.35" premium steel blade, expertly crafted to offer a plain edge with a striking apocalyptic finish. This finish not only adds to the knife's rugged aesthetic but also provides additional durability and resistance to wear. The blade is a dagger style, known for its sharpness and symmetrical design, making it ideal for piercing tasks. With a blade thickness of .12", it strikes a balance between strength and agility, ensuring that it can handle a variety of cutting tasks with ease.
One of the standout features of the Ultratech is its automatic deployment mechanism. The blade is deployed and retracted via a thumb slide, a hallmark of OTF knives, which allows for rapid, one-handed operation. This mechanism locks the blade securely in place, providing confidence and safety during use. The smooth action of the thumb slide is a result of Microtech's precise engineering, ensuring reliable performance with each use.
The handle of the Ultratech is made from anodized blue 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum. This material is renowned for its strength-to-weight ratio, offering a robust yet lightweight feel. The handle's anodized finish adds a layer of corrosion resistance while giving the knife a sleek, modern look. At 5.01" when closed, the Ultratech is compact enough to carry discreetly, yet when opened, it extends to a full 8.36", providing ample reach for various tasks.
Adding to its practicality, the Ultratech is equipped with a stainless steel pocket clip that is ambidextrous, allowing for tip-down carry. This feature ensures that the knife can be quickly accessed and deployed, making it an ideal choice for everyday carry. The clip's design ensures a secure hold in your pocket, while the overall lightweight of the knife, at just 3.5 ounces, ensures it won't weigh you down.
For those moments when you need additional functionality, the Ultratech includes a glass breaker, a vital tool for emergency situations. This feature enhances the knife's versatility, making it not just a cutting tool but a potential lifesaver. Whether you're a first responder or just want to be prepared for the unexpected, this addition is invaluable.
Crafted in the USA, the Microtech Ultratech stands as a symbol of quality and craftsmanship. Every detail, from the premium steel blade to the meticulously machined aluminum handle, reflects a commitment to excellence. The Ultratech is not merely a knife; it is a finely tuned instrument designed to perform under the most demanding conditions. Its design and construction are a reflection of the high standards upheld by Microtech, ensuring that each Ultratech is not just a tool but a reliable companion.
