“Fun, Star Wars-y stickers”…FFS dude, it’s a Boba Fett inspired knife (and they aren’t stickers). At least know a little bit about the specific knife if you’re gunna use it as your example. Otherwise just use a standard Ultratech.
I like Microtech. BUT their Warranty Department is like 3 months behind. Not Good. They had to adjust the Springs on my Ultratratech OTF. Took about 3 months
I would definitely purchase one from you, but unfortunately, you took away the layaway program. Don’t worry there are about six other retailers out there that do. very poor business decision. Most retailers want to expand their customer base, but you obviously want to shrink it. Good luck in the future.
Microtech are absolute 🐶 💩. Guardian tactical destroy microtech! My two recon 035s have been edc for over 2 years on and off and I’m a real knife guy who uses his knives not slice a sheet of paper every month for a RUclips video.. and they held up and love the abuse! My microtechs have all broke one the blade deployed and broke and was stuck open. It’s a fixed blade paper weight . And that was after 2 months of very very light use . And the other one broke after 5 months of medium use . Other people I know also have had problems with microtechs. And then the warranty program they talk about all the time , which ya will need owning a microtech, takes like minimum 8 weeks to get your knife back and that’s a generous minimum time frame. I’ve heard of people taking 12 to 13 weeks untill they got there knives back. Which either way ya look at that it’s bad for them because if they have that many broken knives to fix what does that tell ya about there knives.
I absolutely hate tip down carry, the Socom Elite is literally the only knife I have tip down. I really wish so badly they would just tap some holes in the handle for tip up also... wouldn't be hard at all
Was it common for the 1998 Halo to come with a scout carry Kydex sheath? I have one that I’ve only carried a few times because I like it too much…that being said I’ve considered selling it to buy a newer/less collectible model that I would carry(think I’ve seen them go for upwards of $700, that would easily cover an Ultratech and Socom manual to go with my fixed Socom mini-currently my favorite fixed edc blade)
@@atomichabanero9101 I hear ya on Cali, wasn’t sure if I was gonna get the ZT I bought in a San Diego pier shop home after checking it with my luggage(np at all but I’d never checked a knife before, didn’t even think about it till it was too late but I’m from the Midwest so restrictive knife laws are rare and 30yrs ago weren’t enforced unless you did something especially stupid). Staying in Old Town to watch my bro graduate from the Marines was the best time I’ve had in California by far!
The've moved to standardized screws for all the new models, that have come out this year. Like the Hera II and the Combat Troodon III. All the new ones with the new, smoother firing system
@@conjandysecurity Rob Dalton designed a SEAL side opening auto that was super ahead of its time. And from the way it looks after seeing multiple Daltons I think Microtech stole more than one design.
Brother.. not in it for the money? Come on now. Why are we acting like machining is magical? Its done by computers. A knife made basically automated for hundreds of dollars? Really? I will never not love the hubris of my fellow Americans. Hifinders are just as good. And Eafengrow makes some pretty sick knives too. :)
There was a RUclips video made on the analysis of Chinese knife steel. Most were honest in their claims. Eafengrow misrepresented on EVERYTHING that was tested. Used much cheaper steels than they claimed. I actually bought a few Eafengrow before I saw that video. I thought the machining on a few had room for improvement. A LOT of room. Cool designs, though. But between that and the blade steel issue- I'm Done with Eafengrow.
I’m in California, it’s legal to own An Automatic, however it’s illegal to Carry one! Iv Carried one for Years No Problem at All! I’m Not Out Looking For Trouble!
@@og_doughboy you should be fine. I’ve seen some stores in california that sell microtech OTF. Though some online stores will not ship them to california
Bladehq needs to be better than this and call out knife makers for their nonesense. Microtech has a reputation for running their steels softer than its potential resulting in lower edge retention along with lock failure issues with the RAM lock. Be loyal to your customers not any knife makers!
Love my Combat Troodons…
I own a LCC. Lightfood Compact Combat. It’s over 20 years old and I still love it.
I have the same model in micarta + 154CM! It’s a fantastic design. ☺️👍
@@slicknick332 Mine ist 154CM and carbon fiber. It aged pretty well so far
When are you guys getting LUDT's back in stock? I want one!😅lol

Microtech is great. LUDT is one of my favorite knives.
This kid wasn’t even born in 1994. Lol
This was hard to watch as a big microtech fan!
No Hera Mini's? The colors on the website aren't accurate and I was hoping to see them on video.

What other knife retailers offer layaway? Genuinely curious. I haven't seen layaway in a while, but then again I haven't really looked for it either.

Check out Guardian Tactical OTF knives, microtech is outplayed and overpriced.
I’ve had two guardian tactical and both failed in less then a year and my microtechs have not
@silentender414 Was it mechanical failure? I haven't put a beating on my recon 040 yet

wheres the ludt gen 3 at?
The ultimate microtech meat rider.
Will they discontinue the previous gen combat trodoon and Ludt ? I prefer the feel and look of those ones
Really appreciate when country of manufacture is clearly stated.

Star Warsy stickers? You sir are clearly not Trekkie 🤣🤣🤣
Best way to purchase a Microtech :
Don’t.
Microtechs are 🐶 💩
If I’m going to a war zone I’m taking a scarab

That first knife Is my go to michrotech, I could see Boba or jango using it 🤔 😎
Not liking their Proprietary Screws Either.

Well done...Watching as I flip my Amphibian Fluted Aluminum OD blade!
What about the Rob Dalton seal looks a lot like the LUDT I’m pretty sure Robs came first.
Yeah, Marfione has been accused of stealing designs!
What knife?
@@conjandysecurity Rob Dalton designed a SEAL side opening auto that was super ahead of its time. And from the way it looks after seeing multiple Daltons I think Microtech stole more than one design.
So anything made before the zero blade play is garbage??

Mafione is the Master. Cheers from Australia.
I’m in a state where automatics are a no go, so all my microtechs are manual:
•Socom Elite
•LCC M/A
•D.O.C.
All dependable tools for everyday carry!
I’m in California, it’s legal to own An Automatic, however it’s illegal to Carry one! Iv Carried one for Years No Problem at All! I’m Not Out Looking For Trouble!
Green 1 looks just like the Kershaw blue lol
Love my Microtechs !
COMBAT TROOOOOOOOODONGGG
no socom bravo mini ??
Are the in stock ultratechs equipped with the Krud Cutter?
The Gen 3 OTFs have them.
What a load of BS there not in f
Ah I see I am not in the correct tax bracket for this upload. See yall next time.
😂
What about dead lock otfs
Still calling the RAM lock strong despite them still failing on so many people lmao.
Aye it looks strong. That's all that matters
That’s was from the first month of production
Since 2024 the vast majority of them has been perfect
Is there a better otf?
@ridedingo2497 still sus considering the pricetag on them. They look great but cmon, use ur head😊
@@rickyyo215deadlock...
Can you get these in Cali?
Technically legal to own but not legal to carry besides the manual microtechs
Cali legal Microtech Exocet
@@TheWoolyWolf yea I'm not trying to carry I would just like to own one for my collection
