Microtech Combat Troodon D/E Gen III OTF Knife Black Aluminum, Turquoise M390MK by Tony Marfione (1142-1TQSK)

Combat Troodon S/E Gen III Black Aluminum, Turquoise the largest of the automatic knives, is the pinnacle of precision engineering and tactical efficiency in the field of OTF (Out The Front) knives. Built for a wide range of utility applications, it boasts a 25% larger size compared to the flagship Troodon Precision-crafted, equipped with a sophisticated and extremely fast ejector mechanism and a razor-sharp blade. 100% made and assembled in the USA. Designed by Anthony Marfione, knifemaker and owner of Microtech Knives

Combat Troodon OTF Line - Troodon is Greek for “tooth scratcher”. Although this name was first given to a dinosaur similar to a raptor, it is equally suitable for Microtech's large OTF knife, designed for all purposes and for close combat. This automatic knife with above-average durability and D/A (Double Action) mode is a favorite OTF among law enforcement officers, the US armed forces, and emergency services personnel Its robust design makes the Combat Troodon® suitable for intensive use, and the advantages of the Out The Front automatic knife also make it an excellent knife for everyday use.

M390MK - thanks to the cooperation of Microtech and Böhler engineers, an exclusive version of M390 steel has been created, made only for Microtech The carbon content has been increased and subjected to more precise control, improving the properties of M390 steel to ensure better edge retention, corrosion resistance and polishing. Martensitic high-performance chromium steel produced by powder metallurgy Due to the alloy concept, it is characterized by an extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Thanks to the high wear resistance, it retains the shape of the edge properly, so that the blade remains sharp for a very long time (requires minimal maintenance). Another advantage is the resistance to “wire” formation during sharpening. High-chromium steel 19.0% (Cr) with 1.95% carbon (C) and 4.0% vanadium (V), hardened to 59-61 HRC This super steel is comparable to CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steel by Carpenter. Produced by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria

Blade - machine-ground D/E (Double Edge) Dagger, sharpened on both sides with a long line of chip grooves on both sides of the blade for reinforcement. Characterized by an eye-catching Two Tone finish, with the grind and grain covered in turquoise, and the rest of the blade satin-finished. The blade is produced with a high flat grind, which ensures excellent cutting properties. This means that the knife has excellent piercing properties while maintaining high durability. The wide grain additionally strengthens the blade. The strong blade extension / retraction mechanism with a knurled thumb slide requires a certain amount of force to overcome the spring resistance for safety. The opening method ensures trouble-free opening for both right- and left-handed people

Handle - made with high precision in 3D technology on CNC milling machines, from Mil-Spec coated aluminum 6061-T6. The texture of the handle surface and the deep cuts (jimping) on it make the knife non-slip in the hand during use The slim profile and milled two-position (right/left) solid deep carry clip allow the knife to be carried discreetly in the pocket in a tip-down position. It is equipped with a smooth rollerball, thanks to which the knife easily slides into the pocket without damaging the edges of the pocket. The clip features the Microtech logo and date of manufacture. The handle ends with a window breaker, a steel triangle with a pressed-in tungsten carbide ball.
