Microtech Ultratech
The Microtech Ultratech has been Microtech's flagship OTF since 1999. It fires a 3.55" Bohler M390MK blade from a 6061-T6 aluminum handle with Microtech's Dual Fuel drive train, and it comes in two current versions.
The Ultratech Gen III adds Zero Blade Play (ZBP), Torx screws, Crud Kutter milling under the thumb slide, upgraded jimping, a tungsten carbide glass breaker and a reversible clip. The Gen IV keeps the same build, hardware and action without ZBP, at a lower price. Single edge, double edge and tanto blades, plus Hellhound, Interceptor, Jedi and Signature Series versions, all appear here.
