I recently purchased a utx-70 hellhound, (awesome little knife by the way) and have been contemplating buying a utx-85. You just made my mind up for me. Thanks. Enjoyed your video.
I did the same, ordered a utx70 and havent even got it yet but ordered a utx85 too lol. That's it for me tho, never spent more than 50 on a knife so these 2 will have to last forever
I had the exact same problem with my ultratech. Through normal use, it stopped firing in and out after almost ONE WEEK. So I opened it up to find out what was wrong to see if I could fix it or just had to clean it out, but I found that one of the hooks that was attached to the spring was broken! Upon further examination, I think that the hooks that hook on to the spring, which attach to the slider have a huge design flaw. The L shaped end of each of the hooks seems very prone to bending, which will lead to the mechanism failing.
I heard that as of 2020, all microtech production knife blades will be made of cts-204p (it's the american made version of m390)..the reason is to cut down on cost from importing German steel and to keep 100% USA MADE.
I bought a UTX-85 black with satin tanto blade for Christmas. I EDC it , I keep mine clean, and do the Clean and lube every few weeks. for a good cheap auto a Boker Kalashnikov at $40 is handy (and they make a left handed version)
As far as maintenance, a can of rem oil and a can of compressed air works well for me. I'm sure there will be a time when I will have to send it in for maintenance, but it hasn't come yet after about 2yrs of use. Awesome knives!
Nobody cares, but a Northern Flicker is calling at 12 minutes. Good point about keeping OTFs clean for EDC. Seems getting the bit driver may be a good idea for cleaning so long as it doesnt void the warranty. Microtec owes me two knives so one of them may be an otf for me.
I’m a Microtech junky and a first responder and it fits the role for many of my needs. I only wish the custom knives and signature series of knives were a little less expensive my UTX 85 signature with Damascus and copper hardware is selling for $200 more than it did when I purchased it two years ago.
Wonder if you could bathe the knife, soak it, then wash out any debris? Use compressed air to dry out the interior or any other debris. Lubricate lightly.
I really like the drop points or the bayonet blades on the Ultratech. I have a drop point and I love it !! I want to get another one but I don’t think I could bring myself to spend another 320$.
Love the 85. Perfect size. Carried one for about 6mo.. and then it was gone. Lost. And boy, did it sting when the realization hit me that I’d left it somewhere like the backseat of an Uber. That’s why I EDC a Kershaw again.
I know that this is an older video, but don't be afraid to take apart your OTF. They are easy to clean and maintain. Also pricing has increased greatly since this video has come out. So be prepared for sticker shock! 🤠
My exact daily carry. Number 20 actually, its beat thrashed used for everything. Almost 3 years of daiky abuse never oiled never cleaned and only failed one time and it was my fault. I love mine and swear by them. I have a ultratech also that is my sonds when he turns 18. Was made in his b day month. And year.
@@sociopathmercenary not advocating anyone buy one, ( $300 knife or $1000 phone). Just saying I tend to keep up, and take better care of, my good stuff vs my cheap stuff.
Trying to decide between the drop point or tanto…I plan to edc the knife. I own drop points and love them, never owned a tanto but for me the looks of it more match what an ultra tech is
I know this post was a year ago but Blade HQ just released a limited exlcusive run of this in a clear Natural cover with a black blade and accent pieces. Totally badass. I just ordered one.
It's a shame that Microtechs are insanely expensive in Europe, even basic UTX 70 starts at 360 bucks and if you want basic Ultratech you will spend 500 bucks like nothing
Found a crazy deal on a serrated camo tanto ultratech on letgo for 145 and the guy knocked $10 off if i picked it up at his place. GREAT price but couldnt get over how stiff the button was to actuate the blade. Im currently carrying a benchmade infidel that is a little easier but that gimping on the button is ment for gloved hands so bare skin is a little rough.
Been needing a reason to fork over $300 for a OTF, even though you didn’t get into “real world” carry scenarios or positives/negatives it was a decent review. I liked the heads up about possible buildup on the inside and having to wait 2 weeks to get it back. Any videos you can recommend running the UTX through “real world” rigors? Thanks!
For microtech OTF series knives, do I have to use anti rust oil every time if the knife gets dirty or if water gets into the handle after washing the knife after cutting fruit? Thank you.
You really should try to handle a UTX70 before buying it. They're surprisingly small, and might feel useless in larger hands. Not knocking the quality, but the size is almost novelty-like. YMMV.
Love microtech 👌 just recently lost a brand new carried for three hours tanto edge utx-85 tan handle. Haha no big deal I have a few more and I'll replace it soon. I prefer my ultratechs though because they fit my hand better but my fiance likes the utx-85 a lot.
You didn’t talk about the one thing I wanted you too. That stupid glass breaker. Does it bother you in the pocket if you have other things to reach in for? The little lip that comes off the clip does it scratch you or anything?
@@TheLateBoyScout I do lust after it... No doubt. I'd also cry if I was forced to use it to do something crazy like baton kindling in a pinch when I forget my Rambo-sized monster. I've killed a few cheapies over the years.
That’s why you can carry a less expensive one when you might need to use it more aggressive. I do agree with you “the nicer the knife the less I carry it”. Like most dudes that like knives I have a bunch that are for show and a bunch to use.
I had never spent more than 50 bucks on a knife up until 2 days ago. I'm a terrible impulse buyer plus tax money hit. So utx70 and utx85 are on the way woo.
My UTX85 keeps acting up. I keep getting a misfire every ten times I open it. It's very consistent. Closes every time, fails to lock open. It works perfectly until it doesn't, for no apparent reason.
I would rather buy a boker ak I got one a year ago $45 xhp great knife I can’t wrap my mind around carrying $230 knife I lose knives like crazy but I don’t think I’ve ever been in a situation where I said damn I wish I had a out the front. Plus I think Baltimore police would love to have that. Look at that boy Freddy he had a gas station knife that was assisted they killed him so that’s another reason. It is cool you had around $600 worth of knives in your pocket for that kinda money I’ll take a cold steel espada an a glock 17 an still have dinner money nice video bro just having some fun
Look nice and pretty. But I use a knife for what it supposed to be used for hard every day work. A tool. Or for defense if need be. Like Kershaw or spyderco. Had one years ago. Broke" thx for video.
@@Excalibur01 So im looking for portability, but an all around knife good for emergencies, utilities, and hiking/outdoors if necessary. A souped up letter opener is not quite what I had in mind :).
@@mrcrede244 I really would never use my Microtech for anything but flexing. My main carry is a Combat Troodon and it's the largest double action OTF that Microtech offers. I also own a Halo. You can use them to open certain things and they are durable enough and if I need t go John Wick, they can get the job done. They obviously designed the UTX85 and 70 model to scaled down of the Ultratech. I'd go for a regular Ultratech or larger. In a pinch, ANY knife can be used for emergency and these are pretty durable. There's a guy who did a whole video on how durable but I'd got for something bigger
This comment section gives weird vibes 🤔 I carry my custom Bali-razor from @gp_blades and my ultratech daily which is only about $600 between the two. That's not much money imo and I'm a working man not an office nerd. I guess I'm willing to pay more for different quality?
I hear that very slight blade play comes with the territory of OTFs. Only ones that don’t have any are called “dead locks” and they are way more expensive I think. But i think on micro techs you really have to be searching for it to notice it.
For more discussion on OTF knives for EDC, and practical use demonstrations, check out this video on the Ultratech: th-cam.com/video/uFV7OXS-Z5k/w-d-xo.html

You should NEVER have to ship back a $250 knife for service at the factory because it wasn't made properly in the first place, plus the 2 week wait??? Huh? Where was the awesome American quality control? No thanks.

Back in 2005 a full size Ultratech was $450 new. The UTX 70 was around $230. Now an Ultratech is $270, that's cheap. Good upload!
I love my Ultratech. It makes a great edc. I blow mine out with an air compressor every couple weeks and haven’t had any issues.
DevilDoc918 Good idea!
You guys can pull the glass breaker off and blow air straight through it. My buddy worked at Microtech and showed me that trick.
I was going to suggest the same. Seems like most issues with an otf you can usually fix at home which is nice.

I bought an Ultratech and then bought a standard troodon a week later instead of the utx 85.
The thing is they haven't made an utx85 in hellhound therefore... I'm sticking with my utx70

Or I could stop being a peasant.

Kinda have to. Only one that doesnt is the deadlock

Not with Microtech and I have many.
Cleaning the knife should just treat it as a firearm. Clean after use.. obviously depending on the situation and environment.

Microtech UTX-85, why so expensive?
because its 100% made in the US, with High grade materials, plus its and OTF. But you can find them for about $230 rn which is not that much.

Yes. Already did.

It can't. The blade isn't under spring tension until you create that tension with the switch.
Not gonna happen. It takes a good effort to deploy it.

How solid is the blade is out? Does it have any side to side or front to back play when the blade is out?
