@@claybaybay740 I'm jelouse, there is something about the LUDT especially the auto version that is probably my favorite auto side flipping knife out of all of them. There's something about it that's just amazing, maybe because of the looks and it's meant for underwater demolition LOL.

I got into OTF knives about 3 years ago. Started out buying cheap. Heard about Microtech, and "the price" to own one and immediately ridiculed it as a sucker buy! Then I watched some of these torture tests. I had already disassembled every one of my budget knives to see how well they were made, but without the real thing how could I tell? So I went against my better judgement (I thought) and bought a UTX85 distressed red D/E. The INSTANT I pulled that thing out of the plastic sleeve I knew it was on a level not even dreamed of by all the others - including some not so inexpensive brands. The quality was evident - fit perfect, finish perfect - well the distressed finish was "perfectly distressed" I guess! The blade was so crisply detailed, profile refined, razor sharp, and of course made of the highest quality steel - I read up on that too! So, I took it apart - I had to. It called to me to peek inside. Came apart easily and even the INSIDE is fully finished! The alloy chassis is perfectly executed with crisp, even, straight lines, but then came the best part...the very HEART of what makes a Microtech superior - the blade locks! If you haven't seen them with your own eyes you've missed the best part of owning a MT OTF! The locks themselves are 1.52mm thick with perfectly radiused opposing edges. The locks fit into precision cut recesses in the chassis that allows hinged movement only with no excess play, and here is where those radiused edges matter: At the "back" or hinge edge, the radius creates a perfect rotation. At the "front" or blade engagement edge, the radius swings down behind the upper edge of the blade shank - the shank being precisely angled to match the lock's swing arc, and when engaged, the radius causes all tip forces coming through the blade and into the lock, to cause the lock to "wedge" (for lack of a better term) INTO lock! Repeated hammering against the knife body cannot cause the lock to "bounce" out of engagement because of the perfectly designed, engineered, and executed geometry. I have not found this level of precision and clear understanding of the mission of a front blade lock on ANY other brand of OTF! Benchmade comes close with their twin-lock and 3-point lock-up, but the execution is simply not as precise. Even the size and style of screws attaching the top cover to the chassis is well thought out from an engineering standpoint...the screws have large flanges that apply tremendous clamping force between the handle-halves, making the knife body extremely strong. When I see other brand knives with their small flange screws located around the perimeter I am immediately reminding of how much weaker is their shell construction. $275-$300 for an Ultratech or UTX85 is a BARGAIN! They are so pretty, few want to use them for fear of damaging the pure looks, but they can take a beating, and undergo hard use and still function when other knives - even hinged blade knives will have snapped. I now own two UTX85s, an Ultratech, Troodon, Dirac Delta, with another Ultratech on the way, and a Combat Troodon on layaway! In contrast I only have two BM Infidels - the electric blue limited, and the olive green limited. I only have two Guardian Tactical - 035 and 040 - love them both and they're strong-built, but not VAULT-built! The GT 040 throws a massive 4+" blade. But for the money, MT knives are actually good buys.

Makes me feel even better about my recent $300 Ultratech purchase..mine is turquoise with black blade and hardware..it’s a single edge drop point blade in 204p..it’s truly an amazing knife

You should do a disassembly after all the torture test to see if there is any damage to the lock

@randallscott-key802

2 жыл бұрын

There won't be. For the lock to be damaged the entire chassis must be deformed which takes a lot! MT blade locks are perfection to behold and engineered for positive engagement under tip pressure - the harder you hammer, the more the front lock holds! Not saying you can't destroy a MT if you beat on it hard enough - FAR beyond even extreme duty use, but you will never destroy one without the aid of heavy hammers, and solid backing, or deliberately flexing the blade as hard as possible sideways. I'd trust my MT DA OTFs to stand up to abuse that would split the handle and warp the blade mount of many of my hinge bladed knives!

I have to say, these videos where you’re doing pretty demanding stuff with the Microtech OTF’s are pretty interesting. I never would have thought they were that durable, not even close. I might have to get one now, they actually seem like decent tools on top of the obvious cool factor of the designs. Personally I could do without the high-carbide steels but oh well.
