      I love microtech own a ultratech and scarab but it is a review on there own brand so I'm sure they made sure it was a prime pick example.. not saying they wouldn't preform otherwise, just saying this is a microtech review from a microtech channel..

    Protip for staining treated lumber.(you said you bought the wood a week ago and already stained it). Dont stain pressure treated for at least a couple weeks(if not months depending your climate) after purchase. Drop water onto the lumber and if it beads up, its not ready to stain. If it sucks in the water, it is ready. This is why the stain on your lumber looks to be surface coated only....i would worry about how long your finish where installed will last. (maybe a year max...it will start popping and flaking off as soon as the treat inside the lumber starts to push it's way out). With that said, I just bought a LUDT. This is awesome.

My Ultratech that I’ve had for 2.5 years has left such a good impression on me that I don’t really want to buy anything other than a Microtech. This LUDT is looking like it’s going to fit the bill.

Crazy for awhile I thought I wad the only guy that liked multiple knifes lol bought my first high end knife back in 1998 had 2 both got stolen, that's how nice they was you could tell they wasn't corner store knifes and was razor sharp...I learned after that to never leave expensive knifes laying around when you got contractors walking in and out your place..

    Hopefully no one needs to warranty their knife in 12 years or so. I have a 2008 Ultratech, I called asking about paying them to replace the blade and broken main spring. They won't do it because it's too told. So apparently "lifetime" really means "until we change the geometry" or "until we decide it's too old". I distinctly buying a product with a lifetime warranty. I have other Microtechs that old and older that are still operating, so they're still within their lifetime. I've spent thousands on Microtech products and was about to spend more. However, I will NEVER purchase another one of their products again after the girl I talked to told said they can't help me.

    I still want a Scarab 2 something crazy though! Probably my favorite knife period.

    My kershaws all, just did the same thing with no lockout issue at all dry or not...? They cost between 50 to 160 ish dollars. And the speed assist works great for the past 12 years. Not hating just stating that not quite as expensive knives can do the same and I even did the nail test on them and my cerakote is still in great condition as well. Love my ultratech but my kershaws are still my go to knives for side openers. Looks like a good knife for sure though ❤ they always make a good quality knife that's for sure.

I man should be able to adjust the pin on his knife without having to send it back. I see they've fixed that issue on the SOCOM.

    I absolutely love Microtech knives design and feel, and I have many of their knives. But I feel like there’s something up with this video. I have an LUDT with a snapped tip just from piercing a thin piece of aluminum?? And a Dirac also with a broken tip from penetrating a piece of wood. Not only that but they seem to dull a lot quicker than what is displayed here and on the HALO video. I do love my HALO though feels extremely solid although I haven’t put it through any kind of field use.

    The real test is use it everyday for a few months cutting tape, cardboard, paper, and see what happens, the mighty Spyderco's all show bent tips...from LC200N-Maxamet....my MT/Borkas look as new as a newborn baby from the first day to the last...

    I have got to stop watching your videos. We are on lock down because of the virus and you just caused me to order another microtech. Seriously I have been looking at that very one. Microtech is not responding to my email can you ballpark how long the turn around for warranty is during favorable times? Thanks for reply 👍

      Ive heard the warranty service is pretty bad i still have two ultratechs, but because of what I have seen about the warranty i would never beat on them like i would my Leatherman usually i carry both and if something needs put in a position were it might break the leatherman takes the abuse because they have always fixed anything i have broke.

    Impressive (!) BUT Maybe the best automatic knife in the world is nothing worth if it is not available to order from Germany, at the EU oder from a American Website. So long... I could watch some stuff for the NASA and it's still the same, cause I can not buy it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
