The Microtech Ultratech stands as a pinnacle of innovation and precision in the realm of out-the-front automatic knives. This flagship model has set the bar high with its exceptional engineering, marrying form and function in a package that epitomizes American craftsmanship. Designed for those who demand reliability and performance, the Ultratech is more than just a tool—it's an extension of the user's hand, ready to tackle any challenge.
The Ultratech features a 3.35" dagger blade, crafted from premium steel, ensuring superior edge retention and strength. The blade is coated with a black diamond-like carbon (DLC) finish, a treatment that not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also significantly increases its durability. The DLC coating provides a protective barrier against wear, corrosion, and other environmental factors, ensuring the blade remains in peak condition through the rigors of daily use.
Microtech’s dual-action mechanism allows for seamless deployment and retraction of the blade, controlled by a thumb slide that locks with reassuring precision. This out-the-front automatic mechanism is a hallmark of the Ultratech, designed to offer quick, one-handed operation in critical situations. The reliability of this system, paired with the knife's robust build quality, makes it an indispensable tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
The handle of the Ultratech is as meticulously designed as its blade. Made from anodized 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the handle offers a lightweight yet incredibly durable housing for the knife’s internal mechanisms. The anodized blue finish not only provides a striking visual contrast to the blade but also adds an extra layer of protection against scratches and wear. This combination of materials and finishes ensures that the Ultratech remains both functional and visually appealing, even after extended use.
Measuring 5.01" when closed, the Ultratech is compact enough to carry comfortably in a pocket or on a belt, yet large enough to handle demanding tasks with ease. The knife weighs in at just 3.5 ounces, striking a perfect balance between portability and heft. This makes it an ideal choice for everyday carry, where both weight and size are crucial considerations.
The Ultratech also features an ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip, allowing for versatile carry options. Whether you prefer a left-hand or right-hand carry, the Ultratech accommodates your needs with ease. The pocket clip is designed to provide a secure hold, ensuring that the knife stays in place until you need it. Additionally, the knife is equipped with a glass breaker, a vital tool in emergency situations that require quick action. This feature, combined with the knife’s overall design, makes the Ultratech not just a cutting tool, but a comprehensive survival instrument.
Proudly made in the USA, the Ultratech embodies the quality and innovation that Microtech is renowned for. Every aspect of this knife, from the blade to the handle to the internal mechanisms, reflects a commitment to excellence. The Ultratech is not just a knife—it’s a piece of engineering that is built to perform and endure, making it a reliable companion for those who demand the best in their tools.
Please note: The term "premium steel" is used to describe the steel in Microtech knives, as the specific type may vary based on availability and supplier changes.
