Microtech UTX-85 D/E Black Standard Black Tactical – 12324-1T

The Microtech UTX-85 Gen IV D/E Black Standard Black Tactical is a compact, high-performance out-the-front knife designed to deliver full Ultratech capability in a more portable everyday-carry format. Built at 85% scale of its legendary predecessor, it offers the perfect balance of size, speed, and tactical reliability for daily use and demanding situations.

The ergonomically contoured black anodized aluminum handle is engineered for secure grip and natural hand alignment, ensuring comfort and control during extended use. Its slim profile enhances pocket carry convenience while maintaining a solid, confidence-inspiring feel in hand.

The 3.12-inch double-edge blade features a durable black tactical coating that enhances corrosion resistance and reduces glare. With a 2.96-inch sharpened edge and a robust 0.128-inch spine, it delivers consistent cutting performance for utility tasks, outdoor use, and emergency scenarios.

Powered by Microtech’s precision-engineered OTF system, the UTX-85 Gen IV provides fast, smooth, and reliable dual-action deployment and retraction. The mechanism is designed for ambidextrous operation, ensuring quick access whenever needed under pressure.

A deep-carry, tip-down pocket clip allows secure and discreet positioning in either pocket orientation. At just over 5 oz and 4.38 inches closed, the knife remains highly portable without compromising durability or performance.

Designed and manufactured in the USA, the UTX-85 Gen IV reflects Microtech’s commitment to precision machining, premium materials, and long-term reliability for professionals, collectors, and everyday carry users.
