The Microtech UTX-85 II Stepside OTF Automatic Knife (231II-13ODS) is a premium compact automatic knife that combines cutting-edge performance with a rugged, tactical aesthetic. Designed at approximately 85% the size of the Ultratech, the UTX-85 offers improved control and ease of use while maintaining full functionality and durability.
This model features a 3.1-inch drop point blade with a bronze finish, delivering excellent versatility for everyday cutting tasks. The drop point profile provides a strong, controllable tip and a broad cutting edge, making it ideal for both utility work and general EDC use. Built from high-end blade steel (commonly M390 or equivalent), it ensures superior edge retention and corrosion resistance.
The standout OD Green anodized aluminum handle is paired with bronze hardware and accents, creating a highly sought-after color combination among Microtech enthusiasts. Variations in anodizing can give each piece a slightly unique tone, adding to its individuality and appeal.

Finally made the move.
Man, was I excited to get this package! I have been staring at Microtech OTF knives for years, like a diabetic stares through the window at the bakery. It took me a long time to pull the trigger on a knife at this price point, but needless to say I am stoked! I'm hard on my knives, I use them daily as tools, so I was nervous spending this much money and potentially ruining it too quickly. I've had it two weeks now and I am very pleased with it. It feels very sturdy and the action feels very precise and solid. It's a little small in my hands, but its easier to tuck in a pocket because of it. I read a lot of reviews throughout eknives website, and thats what really sold it for me. This was where I was going to buy from. I really appreciate customer service and the personal touch, not to mention I got 2 starbursts, a band-aid, a personal note, and a sticker with my order. My son immediately volunteered to help me with the candy, and I'm honestly a sticker nerd so I slapped that sucker on the toolbox asap. Overall I am absolutely satisfied with my knife and my buying experience. I will be a returning customer. Thank you.
