Microtech® Scarab® II Gen III OTF – OD Green – Tanto Two-Tone Serrated – 1279-3OD
The Microtech Scarab II Gen III Tanto (1279-3OD) is the 2026-spec apex of the Out-The-Front (OTF) world, combining the legendary "overbuilt" chassis of the Scarab series with the devastating piercing power of a Tanto edge. This third-generation powerhouse (841768181668) features Microtech’s proprietary Dual-Fuel Drivetrain, a revolutionary dual-spring system that provides the smoothest, most reliable deployment in the industry. The 3.9-inch Tanto blade is crafted from Bohler M390MK stainless steel, an exclusive formulation that offers enhanced edge stability and superior corrosion resistance, finished in a striking Two-Tone Black (black flats with satin grinds) and featuring a partially serrated edge for cutting through fibrous materials.
The 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum handle is anodized in a tactical OD Green and features iconic black 3M traction tape inserts for an unshakeable grip in wet or high-stress environments. A key 2026 update is the "Krud Kutter" milling on the thumb slide, designed to break up pocket lint and debris before it can enter the internal mechanism. With its unique rear-porting that allows the knife to fire reliably even while submerged in water, the Scarab II Gen III Tanto is the ultimate choice for maritime operations, search and rescue, and professional duty use.
Includes: (1) Microtech Scarab II Gen III Tanto OTF Knife and Integrated Reversible Stainless Steel Pocket Clip.
