A torture test of the new upcoming Gen 3 Ultratech with the zero blade play system would be great! Thanks Ray!

I don’t have $8,000 worth of Microtechs but close - 17 of the newer models and everyone has been absolutely perfect. I undoubtedly will come across one with an issue - I have found issues with every knife maker but Microtech has been listening to customers, adding new and improved features and materials - IMO more than any knife maker I know of. Appreciate what you do and that’s why you have my support! Great work guys!

I love the care and commitment ray does for each of these reviews 😄

I’ve been looking forward to more torture tests for so long now! Definitely looking forward to more of them by you Ray! 👊🍻

Same

If the scarab got the full treatment of all the new features it would be probably the best otf out there

Or... maybe if you still fluted the spine of the blade like you used to, it probably would have fired underwater lol. Test everything, I would definitely watch it

Love the knife tests...Love the shoes as well! I am a HUGE fan of on cloud shoes. I have the same pair as you do for work! 🙂

Great video Ray and team! Appreciate you doing this and showing how well-made your Scarab is.

Love this type of testing! Microtech has re-opened my eyes to serrated blades!

A torture test of the Scarab RIGHT after I put my new Scarab underwater just to test it out... (Yes it did work perfectly underwater I was just curious)

Can't wait for ultratech 2024!

Would love to see the new Cypher put to the test. Great video!

Microtech serrations are the best I have ever used. the last 2 microtech's i have bought, have been fully serrated.

please guys come out with the Tachyon 4.

Scarab is the best otf out there imo. The gen 3 ct is 2nd runner up. MT has been killing it latley.

would love to see the Cypher 2 put through a torture test....awesome video!!!

Love these test! Do the New combat troodon next please!!!

I have always wanted a scarab. Does microtech plan on releasing the scarab II gen III in a double edge non serrated version

Let's get some more shadow models in stock.

Please make a video saying when the zero play OTF goes live. I'm totally picking one up!

When are you going to restock the Socom Elite in the Service Personnel Program?

What blows my mind is the fact that you are still selling those (discounted i get it ) but still...... not giving them away . Would that be such a big setback for Microtech ?

How difficult would it be to make the edge much sharper?

Already sold? I dont see them on the website

Ray is Tim Cook of Microtech lol

The uncuttable penny !….😂

I don't have edge tester, but I'm gonna do some of these with competitors from Cobra tec and Giger tec😅

In for the non serrated!

Ray you’re a handsome man and I love seeing you but some more close ups of the knives would’ve been great!

1980 and before are mostly copper 1981 and after are mostly zinc and then the mint the penny came from may make a difference as well

I've been having trouble with misfires on the Gen 3's when I retract them. The combat troodon specially. It misfires 1 out of every 4 times. The scarab only once in 3 weeks since Iboughtit. The cypher 2 about 1 out of every 6 times. Do I need to lube the track, or is it something else?

most likely you've got some pocket lint causing issues . unscrew the glass breaker and blast it out with compressed air, then rem oil, then air again. this is more effective than just spraying into the front opening, driving debris deeper into the handle. before you put your otf in your pocket, turn your pocket inside out and make sure there's no lint.

@@Mr.Fields. Thanks for the advice, I have been using them at a warehouse for cutting banding and corrugated cardboard. Debris is rampant there.

Dirac delta with the new features and easier firing button please

33:13. Is where you can see/hear that "Dual fuel drivetrain" system aint dialed in just yet or perfectly solid like they been saying. Listen/ watch when he takes the penny off after he cant cut through it then trys to check the blade and it moves either side to side or in and out the blade even makes a clicking sound confirming its not solid or isnt after that test. Almost but still aint a deadlock or solid if this is your best examples

Dual fuel and Zero Stop are not the same. The Scarab does NOT have the zero blade play feature.

New combat troodon with the easier firing button please 🙏🏼

Give us the shadow version!

Guys I love the brand and I love my Microtechs (I have a Scarab 2 proof run) so please don't take this as being a hater, but your serrations rip more than slice because the pattern you use is horrible. I've done extensive research and testing on serrations and what makes them perform well and the pattern they're ground in makes all the difference in the world, and the only other company that makes them worse than Microtech is Cold Steel. You have two size scallops in your pattern and the small size is far too small, and what ends up happening when you cut things is the points snag more than the scallops cut. I have serrated knives that can slice as cleanly as a straight razor. Another issue is that your blade grinds are thick AF, and then the serrations have to be ground in at an even steeper angle so the scallops themselves are door stops. These are the kinds of issues that make guys hate serrations but it doesn't have to be this way if you grind them with the right pattern and at a steeper angle.

100%agree. Its a shame Microtech and most of the big USA manufacturers dont give a s about this very important informations. Anyway thanks for all of your researfh EvilD, youre a legend in the serrated knife lovers community 😅✌️

Hello 👋 🎉

Pls just make us an otf that can stand up to the deadlock thats not gonna break the bank thats literally all we want..

They're literally releasing ultratechs in the next few weeks with their new 0 blade play mechanism at normal or close to normal ultratech pricing from what Ive read! Stoked! Bigger models like the Atreus theyve been teasing down the road I'd imagine

They are literally making several Zero Blade play knives, hiding under a rock lately?

I had the combat troodon fail after it was only carried. It was never used to cut anything. My ultratech and makora also constantly go off track. These are cute for collecting but i use the socom elite when i need a reliable everyday carry knife.

It’s crazy y’all are selling these after beating up on them. Just give those away. Dang smh

Every time someone complains about a misfire is one extra day he’s going to keep that terrible mustache. Please folks, have a heart. The children are scared and he can’t go within 100 yards of elementary schools. 😢

8:51 the actual " Test"

Every "knife" is a sharpened prydriver. Everybody knows that.

I'm a huge microtech supporter have 8k dollars in microtech and I've never been more dissapointed in my life, terrible quality would not fire all the way so I returned it. Major let down and I was extremely dissapointed. Stay away from theese gen 3 scarabs they are nightmares.

Thing was like a jack in the box never knew when it was going to come out.

My brand new gen 3 has had endless failures to deploy and retract out of the box. I’ve never carried it because of the 0% reliability. I also have a new outbreak makora that is sub par. Especially compared to my dlc shadow makora which is like a MP5. That was disappointing being it’s such a cool design. The button was very rough and had no clean break, the sound was muffled, there wasn’t much of a snap. I did do the otf treatment on that outbreak makora but it showed no progress then it failed so I put it back in the box and that’s where it’s been ever since. Lastly my dlc scarab 2 gen 2 has been perfect but has recently developed a rattle in the handle, with everything else combined it concerns me so I put that knife away as well. I currently carry the cypher gen 3 and that has been flawless.
