Microtech UTX-70 OD Green Stonewashed CTS-XHP Plain Double Edge OTF Automatic Knife 147-10OD

The UTX-70 (15% smaller than the UTX-85) is a dual action mini out the front automatic knife from Microtech that’s one of the most friendly for everyday carry. The diminutive size is perfect for watch pocket or even key ring carry. This version has OD Green contoured handles and a plain Stonewashed finished, Double Edge CTS-XHP blade.

Brand new directly from Microtech Knives, USA.

Blade: Equipped with a rugged, wear-hiding Stonewashed finish, the double edge blade has two razor sharp plain cutting edges. The dagger-like blade is made from high performance, American CTS-XHP steel. The sub-2.5 inch (-6.35 cm) blade features a double action opening and retracting mechanism. Simply move the thumb slide on the side of the handle up to deploy and down to retract. An internal spring remains at rest in both the open and closed position to reduce wear. The action is smooth and fast.

Handle: Smooth, OD Green hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handles have improved rounded edges creating not only a comfortable feel in-hand but a smooth transition in and out of your pocket. As the UTX-70 is much smaller and thinner they have left off the jimping for a cleaner look. This is a gentleman’s OTF automatic. The contoured handle design is easy on the hands and eyes. The handle’s construction is completed with Microtech’s proprietary hardware, glass breaker end and blasted pocket clip with individual serial number/date of production.

CTS-XHP: An ultra-high-carbon stainless steel that was developed to combine the corrosion resistance of 440C and wear resistance of D2. With good wear resistance and the ability to attain a high hardness, CTS XHP has edge retention somewhere between S30V and ZDP 189. An excellent choice for any knife that is going to see a lot of use.
