Microtech UTX-85 Gen IV Tanto – Tan – Two-Tone Black M390MK – 12334-1TA
The Microtech UTX-85 Gen IV Tanto (12334-1TA) is a high-performance Out-the-Front (OTF) automatic knife that combines the tactical efficiency of a tanto blade with Microtech's most advanced 2026 internal engineering. The Tanto (T/E) profile is prized for its reinforced tip strength and superior piercing capabilities, making it a favorite for tactical and utility users alike. This model features a stunning Two-Tone Black finish, where the primary grinds are finished in a brilliant satin or stonewash, while the flats are coated in a durable, non-reflective black finish. This creates a high-contrast look that perfectly highlights the aggressive geometry of the M390MK blade.
As part of the **Gen IV** update, the 12334-1TA features the revolutionary Dual Fuel Drivetrain. This dual-spring system provides a lightning-fast, reliable deployment while significantly reducing the resistance required to retract the blade—effectively solving the "stiff trigger" issue of older OTF designs. The chassis is machined from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in a rugged Tan Mil-Spec Hard Coat Anodization. Ergonomic refinements include the Crag Ridge indexing along the handle for a secure grip and a milled titanium pocket clip featuring a silicon nitride ball for smooth, snag-free carry. For those who want the "cool factor" of a two-tone tanto in a size that is 85% of the full-size Ultratech, the 12334-1TA is the industry standard.
Includes: (1) Microtech UTX-85 Gen IV Tanto OTF Knife and (1) Microtech Warranty/Instruction Manual.
