Excellent advice here, I would love to see how you sharpen your serrated blades! I think it's awesome to see an owner of a company take time out of his day to share his knowledge with his customer base.
My absolute favorite Microtech knife is the UTX-70 that my wife and kids got me last fathers day! It has a satin drop point blade and I use it every single day. It also happens to be my favorite fathers day present ever.
good to see someone grow the company while keeping the craftsmanship as an integral factor in their products. Many manufacturers lose sight of that. Thank you for bringing back craftsmanship to US-made products.
Just bought my first Microtech, a UTX-85. I can already tell I’ll be building a collection. Super impressed with these knives, and especially after seeing videos of the production process and factory tours, it’s very apparent that they’re worth the money.
Being in law enforcement, I’ve carried sever different models since my career started. Ultratech, UTX85, Stitch, Navy and QD Scarab, Marfione HH Combat Troodon, Marfione Troodon Interceptor with Dark Matter blade and a manual tanto partially serrated Socom. Everyone of them has been reliable and I would trust my life with them but the Socom is one of my all time favorites. Realizing there are manual and auto Socoms, I always wondered why someone would buy a manual over an auto….until I carried a manual. Love that knife!!! My favorite OTF would have to be the OG Scarab with the new Scarab II a close second. Thanks for always looking out for service personnel and making absolutely amazing products!!

I really have to say, I like Tony. He’s my kind of guy. I have a half a dozen MT knives I’ve picked up over 20 years. I’ve read some posts over the years basically not saying nice things about this man. I never paid too much attention to those people, the same could be said about anyone. If someone doesn’t like you, you know how that goes. I’m proud to say I own these fine cutting tools. I continue to pick up MT pieces.
I have known Tony since the wife was his girl friend and I came to see him at a small warehouse in Vero Beach FL. I have at least 10 MT's of all types including a mini LUDT, a splash LUDT and a filet knife. I worked for S&W and had a few socoms made for my old SWAT team with their names and badge #. I have a socom elite #277 that has been my constant go-to since 2000 and it has aged gracefully like myself. Great to see he is still very much still hands on.
I always appreciate a look into the manufacturing environment. Makes me feel better about the companies I support when I can see the time and effort put into the products.*Forgot to add my favorite knife, SOCOM Elite Manual!
My favorite Microtech knife is kind of like asking me which one of my children is my favorite. If I had to pick one, Ultratech Hellhound...perfect size for everything, very versatile, looks amazing, performs like a champ.
I absolutely love your knives, you can't beat the quality and precision that you guys put into each and every one of your knives and you are a company who makes me proud with not only making ( in my humble opinion 😜) the highest quality products right here at home in the best country in the whole world , the United States of America!!! Sincerely you guys make me proud to say that your knives are American made . If you couldn't tell I do carry your Microtech Ultratech from the 2018 knife show and it's showing it's age a little bit but it's received some loving care and maintenance and is still working beautiful!
As a Firefighter, I rely on my knife to perform every single time. From cutting seatbelts and flattening tires during auto accident extrications, to opening up sheetrock and walls during a structure fire overhaul, I need my knife to open, cut, and close EVERY SINGLE TIME. Often, I can only do this one handed, and my Microtech performs flawlessly. Firefighters are known to tear apart anything in their path to complete the job. This knife makes that possible, EVERY SINGLE TIME. These knives simply won’t fail you when you need it most. I have complete faith that I can rely on this knife to help me save lives. PERIOD! I can’t think of a clearer way to say - you can trust these knives like no other. We are very hard on our tools, because every second counts in a rescue. I trust the engineering and materials used to build these tools. This knife is a tool, that works flawlessly, and still looks beautiful and perfect in its design. If you’ve been on the fence about purchasing one, rest assured that you will never regret buying a Microtech. I don’t believe there is a better EDC knife out there… at any price.
I’m the same way, one handed operation SAFELY! My only addition is the glass breaker. How many times have you seen an officer wailing away with their collapsible baton on a car window? And as we both know with the modern car windows, you wind up in the water being able to get out of that car quickly can be a serious problem.
Truly amazing to see a master in his craft! It's literally second nature to him when he's behind the grind wheel. Learned so much from this video alone!
Absolutely the Microtech Stitch!!! Followed by the Combat Troodon then the SOCOM Elite! Microtech Knives offer the best price-to-quality ratio than any other manufacturer. You can never go wrong with choosing any of the knives in their lineup! 👍👍👍
It’s great to see the owner of Microtech on the wheel, makes me feel good about purchasing knives from a company that stands by their customers. Thanks for the awesome video!
He might be good in the morning but he is best at the end of the day 💪 heroic stuff honestly, sharing things like this is so valuable and we admire the heck out of tony for doing it!
Though it’s been around for a while, the Ultratech is the most evolved knife in the lineup. Reliable enough to trust your life with, the perfect size to fit in my MOLLE gear or pocket, classy clean lines. Oh, and the sound it makes gives one a smile and a chub simultaneously.
I live in Fletcher and have owned Microtech for years. I always thought it was a small company that made super high quality performance knives. Now I know Microtech is one of the most sought out collected knife company. I use and carry all of mine. I have sent some for sharping and I have to say they do a perfect job and are a great company to deal with
I love my Ultratech so much, For so many years I owned low quality, some middle of the pack knives and they never lasted, even with minimal use. I'm so glad I found Microtech, best investment. Now I need another ultratech for my other pocket!
I'm new to all this. I never even heard of MT two weeks ago but just got a very nice guardian yesterday and will definitely be buying some of these. The difference in quality between the knives I used to carry and these is eye opening and inspiring in my own work. It was nice to see the owner himself at work and explaining things for us. I can't say how good it is to see a good craftsman excel at his craft and succeed. What a great story. Thank you. Subbed.
I have been a fan of Microtech since their inception. Knowing their products as the gold standard of fine knives. Unfortunately I've only been able to buy clones of these beautiful blades. Hopefully after this I'll be able to represent with the real deal. Thanks for the sharpening tutorial of how you do things in your shop & FINALLY an explanation as to WHY a Microtech warranty would voided if I sharpen myself. You guys are awesome!
I've carried an LUDT for years now, the same one. The way it ages yet stays sharp and is able to serve me every day no matter what situation is incomparable to any other. I'll always carry this knife, it it the absolute best!
Microtech Knives are top quality, I own one now but I would love a OTF. Nice to see American craftsmanship that still alive and strong. Had to use my Socom Elite glass break on a truck window, older gentleman was passed out and not responsive and doors were locked Subscribed 👍
I’ve got to say that I’m hooked. Bought my first Ultratech a couple of months ago and was amazed at the craftsmanship and solid design. It’s been a part of my EDC ever since.
I think this video will clear up confusion for folks. I know it did for me. It’s fun to watch Tony and the gang at their craft. Microtech is another great, American company.
Microtech has been one of my favorite knife companies since I bought my first LUDT back in 2006. Definitely the best OTF’s on the market the standard all others are judge by me for sure.
Microtech Ultratech sets the bar very high for the competition. You know you've got the the very best period, that being said all the Microtech knifes are the best you can get. Thanks for an awesome video.
Thanks for clarifying warranty related to sharpening. Some hate in the online forums over the years for this subject and X-Ring was good to dig into it. The edge angles was a great touch as well. Microtech stands behind their products. I was introduced to higher end production knives via Benchmade. I’ve had a couple of their OTFs (Phaeton and Autocrat). The grinds are completely inconsistent. Not just on the edge, the main grinds as well. Add to that, they increased their blade replacement fees to be insane. My UTX-85, Ultratech (I’ve had 4…trade some for others), Troodon and Combat Troodon have come perfect out of the box. Finish, grinds, everything. T/E looks awesome. Cheers!
Love the fact that the Owner and CEO of a company will still get his hands dirty and put in some work for his customers. I own plenty of Microtech knives and plan on getting more in the future. Absolutely love my Stitch for an EDC and my SBD for hunting/camping.
My Microtech ultratech is the best EDC I’ve ever owned. Will cut through anything and still fire like the first time I picked it up. Glad you guys exist!
Absolutely love Microtech Knives!! If I won the lottery, you know the first stop would be on every Microtech page on every website😂. I’ve had a blue ultratech t/e for about 2 years now and have religiously carried it every day and can honestly say, I wouldn’t want to trust my life with any other brand of knife! Thank you Tony and the whole Microtech crew for the amazing work you all perform so that us collectors and users can cherish the impeccable workmanship! Take care!
I've been hand sharpening since I was 12 years old and I never miss an opportunity to learn from a master in their field. Now that I know the care you put into your brand I will be buying my first of many Microtech knives.
Love yalls knives I'm a first responder and I carry a microtech everyday. There's nothing like the snap when you deploy the blade. Keep up the good work.
Amazing to see what you can accomplish with some blood, sweat and tears. Well done!! The Stitch has been one of my most used and definitely my favorite knife to date.
First time I held a microtech I was hooked ,American Quality,dedication in building a business,it’s what people from around the world think about when they think USA.Proud to own one.
I realize this is an older video. It's been very informative! I've waited for years and finally came to the point that I'm going to buy nice stuff. I had always wanted a utx-70. Not a big knife, and not super expensive, but it does cost a couple dollars. I'm at the range the other day and who it out to trim a cigar. Here I am styling with my new orange s/e. I've been using and sharpening knives for years. The knife BARELY could cut the cigar and damaged the cigar. I was sawing and getting no where. Disappointed, I remember at the fun shows, and the microtechs were razor sharp! I may have to send it back in for some factory love.
Microtech Ultratech D/E full serrated on one side! Beast of a knife. This is my first Microtech, and I’ve got to say, I’m very impressed with the quality of this knife! Im hooked on Microtech now! Definitely plan on getting me another one in the future.
Thank you Tony for showing all of us how to correctly apply a razor sharp edge. Also thank you Ray for making this video available for all. Please come up with a great way to get that amazing knife.
I would really like a Combat Troodon. Tony is a true artisan in his business. His passion for what he makes really shows through in the video. He truly looks at ease behind those machines.
Jade, so cool. I used the Halo as my back up as a LEO in SWAT, Range Master and when I did Defensive Knife tactics at POST for 20 years. I would always recommend Microtech to the cadets. I would tell them, never go cheap on their knives.
Such a pleasure to see how the care and hand work go into the Micotech blades. Free hand is amazing. I always thought it was with an angle block. Keep up the great work to all the folks at Microtech
Ever since I got my Ultratech I haven't carried another knife. Superb quality, easy to carry, and just phenomenal ergos. Hands down my favorite knife out of the ones I own!
I own the combat troodon. Best knife ive ever owned. Been trying to find the halo 6, my holy grail. Every knife afficionado ive shown the knife appreciates the quality and craftsmanship. I am a man of simple means, but just like my tools for my trade, i buy the best so they WILL LAST. Thank you all at microtech.
Favorites by far are my Scarab II Shadow Serrated and the Hera. Scarab II is easily the best heavy duty use OTF in microtechs lineup and on the market by far. The Hera imo is the best EDC knife I’ve carried. The ergonomics, blade length, coating and jimping make it such a useful but classy blade to carry every day. Plus that double fuller blood groove and ball bearing pocket clip are just such nice touches.
I had recently got myself a Microtech Socom Elite Auto and when I took it out of the wrapper I thought to myself just how lucky I was to even be holding such a highly decorated and highly reliable knife, I currently have 3 Microtech knives and 1 tac-p, I am definitely interested in getting another, thank you guys at Microtech for what you do there is truly nothing that can compare.
Just purchased the Marfione Custom Socom Elite Tanto Edge Artic Blue Fat Carbon Fiber Two-tone Stonewash with Blue Titanium . Could not be happier and already looking for another. What a beautiful knife! Thank you!
I recently got the Bounty Hunter Exocet knife for my birthday and I absolutely love it. The detail in the blade and handle is beautiful. I am personally even more impressed after learning more about this business’s roots in this video.
I traded a bmx to a buddy for a Dirac d/e blacked out..I love it! Inspiring story that you started out in a apartment and now one of the top brands! Excellent kit!
Great tips for sharpening knives! My son-in-law, Gamy, showed me your video and I'm hooked! Love your knives, Gamy showed me his and it's such a great knife.
So cool, I'm a huge fan of Microtech, they're the best in the business. I lost my entire collection in a house fire last year. So I've had to start my collection of knives and guns all over again. It sucks, but it's really exciting to find new knives and guns at the same time.
My daily carry is a Microtech Stitch stonewashed in my right front pocket and a UTX-85 double edge one side full serrated black tactical in my left front pocket. Love them....❤
These are top quality, beautiful pieces of art that this company puts out and I am blessed to own two of, so far. I'm sure I'll be buying more in the near future.
Man what a absolutely amazing Quality Assurance steps taken! I own the Stitch and would be honored to give this blade a home!! Thanks Tony and Microtech!!
My grail configuration for a Microtech would likely be a blue UTX-85 in S/E with an apocolyptic bronzer blade finish. Ideal size with a touch of classy. On a feedback note, please continue to push out content like this on your channel. It’s awesome to get to know Mr. Marfione in addition to learning more about the Microtech philosophies/practices. Take care!
I just bought my first microtech knife last year and I love it! My favorite blade is the Dirac delta w/ apocalyptic blade!!! I bought a tac-p a few months ago...I think I may have an addiction.
I have 5 microtechs, all of them are awesome but my favorite is my troodon. It is slightly contoured, and just feels better in my hand. Will continue to add to my collection for sure.
My wife says that I have way too many Microtechs...I disagree. She has a few of her own. I carry a socom elite every day, supplemented with a CT. Thanks for all the great knives!
Howdy from Colorado, I use a Works Sharp machine and really learned a lot from your video Tony. So glad that you took the time to show us your angle technique and some of the basics. Now don't be shy and sell us your own chemical compound for honing knives, you could call it the "Free Knife Secret Souse" ha ha. Thanks again Tony for demanding excellence in your craft. M.
Favorite is a 2003 DLC Scarab. I have carried it for 18 years. Now I carry the stonewashed Scarab 2. It's lasted and I absolutely love it. And now the new design. Such a beast.
The Socom Elite is the best knife I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. I went through an OTF phase but 10 years later, I still carry the SE. I do get a kick out of seeing peoples faces when they see my money clip fire a dagger.
Microtech has me hooked for sure. I just bought my first one a month ago, the troodon tactical. I love it! The craftsmenship is excellent. I will be buying more in the future
I worked here for some time and it was a very cool experience. Tony is an awesome guy and has built a great company.
You can tell this man has a lifelong passion for this. He is the owner! This is why when I first saw a Microtech in the early 90’s, I wanted one.
Excellent advice here, I would love to see how you sharpen your serrated blades! I think it's awesome to see an owner of a company take time out of his day to share his knowledge with his customer base.
Ultratech for sure
Great balance of size, price and functionality
Great brand made right in my hometown
Off the bat, Tony saying associates and not employees is really sticking out to me. 👍
Then ur brainwashed
My absolute favorite Microtech knife is the UTX-70 that my wife and kids got me last fathers day! It has a satin drop point blade and I use it every single day.
It also happens to be my favorite fathers day present ever.
Hard call on a favorite. Probably the SOCOM Elite, but I also really love my Scarab II.
good to see someone grow the company while keeping the craftsmanship as an integral factor in their products. Many manufacturers lose sight of that. Thank you for bringing back craftsmanship to US-made products.
Just bought my first Microtech, a UTX-85. I can already tell I’ll be building a collection. Super impressed with these knives, and especially after seeing videos of the production process and factory tours, it’s very apparent that they’re worth the money.
I carry a 85 everyday the size is perfect.
Same here. I bought an 85 with the hellhound blade for edc and I'm itching to replace it with a combat troodon.
I’ve got an ultratech coming this week, I held one of my friends recently and was obsessed with the action
@@goodinsrt8 I have one and it's great but get ready for a thumb workout til you get used to it lol
@hampstershat123 you're not kidding, I got my hands on one, and it's a hard pass for me.
Being in law enforcement, I’ve carried sever different models since my career started. Ultratech, UTX85, Stitch, Navy and QD Scarab, Marfione HH Combat Troodon, Marfione Troodon Interceptor with Dark Matter blade and a manual tanto partially serrated Socom. Everyone of them has been reliable and I would trust my life with them but the Socom is one of my all time favorites. Realizing there are manual and auto Socoms, I always wondered why someone would buy a manual over an auto….until I carried a manual. Love that knife!!! My favorite OTF would have to be the OG Scarab with the new Scarab II a close second. Thanks for always looking out for service personnel and making absolutely amazing products!!

Microtech is the best American made otf knife company hands down. Quality products and top shelf customer service.

He might be good in the morning but he is best at the end of the day 💪 heroic stuff honestly, sharing things like this is so valuable and we admire the heck out of tony for doing it!

Ultratechs by far are my favorite! You cannot beat the action nor quality anywhere else!

Jade, so cool. I used the Halo as my back up as a LEO in SWAT, Range Master and when I did Defensive Knife tactics at POST for 20 years. I would always recommend Microtech to the cadets. I would tell them, never go cheap on their knives.
Such a pleasure to see how the care and hand work go into the Micotech blades. Free hand is amazing. I always thought it was with an angle block. Keep up the great work to all the folks at Microtech
Ever since I got my Ultratech I haven't carried another knife. Superb quality, easy to carry, and just phenomenal ergos. Hands down my favorite knife out of the ones I own!
Amazing company! Top of the line in products and service !! Love it
I own the combat troodon. Best knife ive ever owned. Been trying to find the halo 6, my holy grail. Every knife afficionado ive shown the knife appreciates the quality and craftsmanship. I am a man of simple means, but just like my tools for my trade, i buy the best so they WILL LAST. Thank you all at microtech.
Favorites by far are my Scarab II Shadow Serrated and the Hera. Scarab II is easily the best heavy duty use OTF in microtechs lineup and on the market by far. The Hera imo is the best EDC knife I’ve carried. The ergonomics, blade length, coating and jimping make it such a useful but classy blade to carry every day. Plus that double fuller blood groove and ball bearing pocket clip are just such nice touches.
I had recently got myself a Microtech Socom Elite Auto and when I took it out of the wrapper I thought to myself just how lucky I was to even be holding such a highly decorated and highly reliable knife, I currently have 3 Microtech knives and 1 tac-p, I am definitely interested in getting another, thank you guys at Microtech for what you do there is truly nothing that can compare.
Just purchased the Marfione Custom Socom Elite Tanto Edge Artic Blue Fat Carbon Fiber Two-tone Stonewash with Blue Titanium . Could not be happier and already looking for another. What a beautiful knife! Thank you!
I recently got the Bounty Hunter Exocet knife for my birthday and I absolutely love it. The detail in the blade and handle is beautiful. I am personally even more impressed after learning more about this business’s roots in this video.
I traded a bmx to a buddy for a Dirac d/e blacked out..I love it! Inspiring story that you started out in a apartment and now one of the top brands! Excellent kit!
Just got in to Microtech’s this past year and I’m already addicted and working hard to build my collection!
Great tips for sharpening knives! My son-in-law, Gamy, showed me your video and I'm hooked! Love your knives, Gamy showed me his and it's such a great knife.
So cool, I'm a huge fan of Microtech, they're the best in the business. I lost my entire collection in a house fire last year. So I've had to start my collection of knives and guns all over again. It sucks, but it's really exciting to find new knives and guns at the same time.
Currently carrying my blue and black Delta Dirac... luv it !!! Thanks Mr. Marfione...😎👌
What an amazing process! Thanks so much for the time you take to explain your passion. It’s just awesome.
My daily carry is a Microtech Stitch stonewashed in my right front pocket and a UTX-85 double edge one side full serrated black tactical in my left front pocket. Love them....❤
These are top quality, beautiful pieces of art that this company puts out and I am blessed to own two of, so far. I'm sure I'll be buying more in the near future.
Just purchased my first ultratech 123-1UMS from you guys and can't wait to get it in the mail. Thanks for the great customer service
Man what a absolutely amazing Quality Assurance steps taken! I own the Stitch and would be honored to give this blade a home!! Thanks Tony and Microtech!!
My grail configuration for a Microtech would likely be a blue UTX-85 in S/E with an apocolyptic bronzer blade finish. Ideal size with a touch of classy.
On a feedback note, please continue to push out content like this on your channel. It’s awesome to get to know Mr. Marfione in addition to learning more about the Microtech philosophies/practices. Take care!
My SOCOM elite manual signature series is the one I carry the most by far! Absolutely one of the best built knifes I’ve ever had
You guys make some wicked stuff! Appreciate the insight into how you guys do what you do.
I just bought my first microtech knife last year and I love it! My favorite blade is the Dirac delta w/ apocalyptic blade!!! I bought a tac-p a few months ago...I think I may have an addiction.
I have 5 microtechs, all of them are awesome but my favorite is my troodon. It is slightly contoured, and just feels better in my hand. Will continue to add to my collection for sure.
I am new to Microtech, buying my first one this year. Very nice.. keep up the the great quality.
The Scarab 2 is by far my favorite ! Thanks for the mini-tour of the sharpening room, it was a delight.
My wife says that I have way too many Microtechs...I disagree. She has a few of her own. I carry a socom elite every day, supplemented with a CT. Thanks for all the great knives!
If there wasn’t Tony there wouldn’t be all these cool knives.. learned a lot from this video!
I just bought a ultratech yesterday and I have love everything second of it cant wait to add more of your knifes to the collection
Howdy from Colorado, I use a Works Sharp machine and really learned a lot from your video Tony. So glad that you took the time to show us your angle technique and some of the basics. Now don't be shy and sell us your own chemical compound for honing knives, you could call it the "Free Knife Secret Souse" ha ha. Thanks again Tony for demanding excellence in your craft.

Favorite is a 2003 DLC Scarab. I have carried it for 18 years. Now I carry the stonewashed Scarab 2. It's lasted and I absolutely love it. And now the new design. Such a beast.
The Socom Elite is the best knife I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. I went through an OTF phase but 10 years later, I still carry the SE. I do get a kick out of seeing peoples faces when they see my money clip fire a dagger.
Best sharpener I've seen so far. Thanks for these videos. It helps me in my own shapening
Microtech has me hooked for sure. I just bought my first one a month ago, the troodon tactical. I love it! The craftsmenship is excellent. I will be buying more in the future
Great to see the real thing no machines no computers just human eyes and hands making it happen great job!
Just bought my first microtech and love it. Speechless...
