Microtech Ultratech Gen IV D/E – Apocalyptic Standard, Blue (Model 11224-10APBL)
The Ultratech Gen IV is Microtech’s flagship out-the-front automatic—slim, fast, and built for daily carry. This configuration pairs a rugged Apocalyptic (distressed stonewashed) double-edge dagger blade with a bold blue anodized aluminum handle for a look that’s both modern and purpose-driven. Refined Gen IV internals deliver smoother, more consistent deployment and retraction, while the knife’s balanced size makes it an easy choice for pocket carry, work, and collection alike.
