The Microtech 144-3T Tactical Combat Troodon out the front automatic knife is a really large version of the popular Troodon model, and is Microtech’s largest double action out-the-front (OTF). It is named after the Troodon dinosaur.  This Combat Troodon features a black finish Bohler M390, Carpenter CTS-204P, or Elmax steel fully serrated tanto blade. This Combat Troodon features an black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle. This Combat Troodon is a “Tactical” model that incorporates black hardware, pocket clip, glass breaker, and firing button which gives the knife that stealth/tactical look.

Bohler M390 Steel: Bohler M390 is widely revered as being one of the best all-around knife steels, which has led top companies, and makers to widely utilize it in higher end knives. M390 exhibits excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and high level toughness.

Carpenter CTS-204P Steel: CTS-204P is made by the USA-based Carpenter Technology Corporation. The unique combination of wear resistance, toughness, polish ability 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 exhibits excellent performance with both, coarse and high polished edges.

Elmax Steel: Produced by Bohler-Uddenholm, ELMAX steel has high wear resistance, high compressive strength, superior corrosion resistance, and a very good dimensional stability, or the ability to retain its size and form even after taking abuse. Although high wear and corrosion resistance are typically hard to find together in a knife blade, this steel’s powder-metallurgy based production allows for its imperviousness to wear, and corrosion.
