Microtech – 233-6RD – UTX-85 – OTF Auto – M390 Satin Tanto F/S – Aluminum – Red

The Microtech UTX-85 OTF Automatic Knife – Model 233-6RD delivers the high-performance engineering and premium materials that Microtech is known for, packaged in a slightly more compact everyday carry platform. Built in the USA with meticulous attention to detail, this double-action out-the-front automatic knife offers the same signature action and reliability as the legendary Ultratech, but in a design that is approximately 15% smaller for enhanced pocket comfort and control. The UTX-85 series was created to provide users with a balance of power and portability. The reduced size makes it easier to carry daily while still providing a capable cutting tool suitable for demanding tasks. The automatic mechanism deploys and retracts the blade with authority using the textured thumb slide, delivering smooth, one-handed operation that Microtech enthusiasts appreciate. This specific configuration, the 233-6RD, features a striking red anodized aluminum handle paired with a fully serrated tanto blade. The blade is crafted from premium Böhler M390 stainless steel, a high-end steel celebrated for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. The aggressive serrations excel at slicing through fibrous materials like rope, cord, and webbing, while the tanto tip offers reinforced strength for piercing and precision cutting tasks. The lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum handle keeps the knife comfortable in the pocket without sacrificing durability. Precision machining and anodization provide both visual appeal and dependable grip. A sturdy pocket clip allows for secure carry while keeping the knife readily accessible for everyday tasks. Whether you are a collector, enthusiast, or someone looking for a dependable automatic knife for everyday carry, the Microtech UTX-85 offers a perfect blend of size, strength, and performance. Its compact proportions, premium steel, and lightning-fast action make it a trusted companion when reliability matters most.
