OTF Knives Descriptions
Microtech UTX-70
The Microtech UTX-70 is a “fun sized” double action OTF (out-the-front) automatic. Built 70% scale sized of the standard Ultratech, this cool little auto is a downright blast to own! Small enough to fit in a watch/5th pocket or a keychain, the UTX-70 also has a pocket clip for traditional carry options.
Microtech UTX-85
This UTX-85 MODel has a black finished dagger blade. The 6061-T6 aluminum handle is gray anodized and outfitted with black finished hardware, pocket clip, and glass breaker tip.Microtech has updated and refined the UTX-85 MODel. It features improved Ergonomics, with rounded handle faces, and patches of grooves along the sides to ensure excellent grip. The firing button has been redesigned to increase surface contact for effective engagement, and the glass breaker has a ball-tip set in the trip-angle pattern base to increase its everyday carry manners.Based on the Ultratech platform, the UTX-85 is scaled down to 85% of its length. The UTX-85 is an appealing option for those who prefer a smaller EDC knife and value Microtech's high-performance out-the-front action and exceptional build quality.
