Microtech 121-1 Black Blade Ultratech

The Microtech 121-1 Black Blade Ultratech features a drop point blade that has a plain edge. The black finished blade is Bohler M390 or Elmax steel. The black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle features a bead blast finished pocket clip, glass breaker, and hardware. Microtech equipped this Ultratech D/A OTF knife with a smooth, contoured handle (chassis) design that promotes increased comfort during use. This updated model provides the same dimensions, hardware, and durability offered in the “Tri-Grip” models, but it is easier on the hands, and pants pockets. Note: Microtech uses several different blade steels. Current models can have either a Bohler M390 steel, Elmax steel, or a Carpenter CTS-204P steel blade.

Carpenter CTS-204P steel: CTS-204P is made by the USA-based Carpenter Technology Corporation. The unique combination of wear resistance, toughness, polishability and corrosion resistance makes CTS 204P an excellent choice for knife blades. CTS-204P fine grained alloy is a popular choice for high end folders and small fixed blades with a working hardness up to 62HRC. It exhibts excellent performance with both, coarse and high polished edges.
