Microtech 122-1BL Blue Ultratech

The Microtech 122-1BL Blue Ultratech features a double edge dagger blade that has plain edges. The Black finish blade is Bohler M390 or Carpenter CTS-204P steel. The Blue anodized contoured 6061-T6 aluminum handle features a black finish pocket clip, glass breaker, and hardware. Microtech equipped this Ultratech 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 previous Ultratech models, but it is easier on the hands, and pants pockets.  Note: Features the improved, more user-friendly glass breaker.

Bohler M390 Steel: Bohler M390 stainless steel is one of the recent wave of “super steels” heralded by knife makers all over the world. It has characteristics of high hardness and excellent corrosion resistance. This means you’re going to get a very fine edge that retains it sharpness even through hard use, with little to no patina. Introduced and manufactured by Bohler-Uddeholm, M390 is a powdered steel. Bohler’s specifications claim a Rockwell hardness of 60 – 62HRC, putting it in the higher echelon of stainless knife steels. M390 is called a “micro clean” steel and takes a mirror finish very well.

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.
