Ray, when can I buy one of these 1705M-10 drop point from your company? Oh, I really enjoy your shooting videos.

Interesting for sure....but as far as Microtech knives go, I don't want any coated m390 when the apocalyptic finish is an option!

This version of the S/E actually looks like it slices. Too bad the old singe edge profile sucked.

I report every counterfeit online store I come across. Microtech is probably sick of me by now. 🤣

Happy New Year to you and yours. Any chance you could pass on when the next batch of Ultratech knives will be available, especially the S/E. Thanks

I’ve got my 1st Signature series Microtech Combat Troodon Urban Camo for a present. It is brilliant on the pocket. Waiting for congratulations) Have a question about sharpening it: Which angle is better for it to sharpen? Merry Christmas and happy new year. Respect from Ukraine!

I recently learned about micro tech knifes and instantly became a fan of your ultra tech knifes and especially want to get myself a utx 70 when I can afford one. Thank you God bless you 🙏 and take care

“You can tell this one’s fake because it has a better engraving”

So people send them in in good faith and you just confiscate them?

🫡

All these people in the comments with bootleg knives are over here lying to themselves.

I got a gift card to my mt dealer and that's all they had haha. At least it's s/e.

I think if you bought it from alibaba orany 8f the China based online marketplace , you for sure will get a fake. If you buught it at a gun show for less than retail price it's most likely a fake. But if you paid full price for a fake , you should have acquainted yourself)f before buying is all I can say.

WAAAAAY TO EXPENSIVE 😂

Always look to see if the dealer that you’re buying from is an authorized microtech dealer or distributor. If one is gonna complain over $50-$75 difference in price especially buying a microtech at 300+ dollars, then you don’t need to be owning that knife. I’ve always been taught my entire life if you can’t afford it you don’t need to buy it and if you do buy it, you better be able to maintenance it.

Saw a fake ultratech dessert warrior a pawn shop. Was so bad, and they were still asking $400 for it.

Never bought a fake mt never will

What about microtech gear

My real ZBT ultratech needs tuning after about <50 uses. Now it has bladeplay. And we're just talking merely opening/closing while bored watching tv, not batonning firewood. 🤷🏻‍♂️ At some point authenticity and quality part company. I bet even some Hawk knockoffs have zero bladeplay by now. Good thing microtech "made this user tunable" because i'll need to open it in its first week of ownership to do just that. 😡 Maybe Tony has a line of Marfione DLC carbon fiber grip Torx drivers he's going to unveil at ScrewdriverShow 2025? I look up to Tony and crew, I think their products are compelling. It stings all the more.

What’s an even bigger shame is to spend your good hard earned money and buy a legit microtech and it needs sent in because the QC missed it working properly or having an uneven edge.

One of the coolest videos ever!

overpriced, get from ali for 1\10 price and sometimes better quality :D

Yeah bro, buy Benchmade

Show us how to find out what's not legit

Micro-tech is a counterfeit company that is advertising on Facebook.

This is true, they sell fake Casio F-91W watches on the internet. You can get a real one at Wal Mart for around $17. My Microtech was bought at Smokey Mountain Knife Works so I don’t have any reason to believe mine is a fake.

I have just one question: Is it normal that occasionally, when I open the knife with the blade facing downward (towards gravity), it doesn’t fully open, and I have to manually snap it into the fully open position? I bought my knife from authorised dealer in Czech.

I wanted this pen until I found out they are made in China. I was ready to pay the price.

Just received my Ultratech ZBT S/E in natural clear and my God, it is an absolute masterpiece. Side-by-side with my older ultratechs, the improvements are so evident. Well done Microtech!!

I only had one bad knock off and I got my money back. The rest were all awesome

Yes, they are not inexpensive knives. Good knives but not inexpensive.

WD40…. I did all this. I used the mentioned oil, in the mentioned quantities. I did it all step by step. Failure after failure after failure. Spray a lil WD40 in there.

Happy new year Master 👋

It’s hard to imagine $2000-$2500 flagship Marfione Custom Scarab2s and Combat Troodons not having nickel boron internals yet I’ve heard several KZbinrs suggest it’s absent in their custom line. None of them mythbusted by exhibiting a disassembled example so maybe they are NiB🤔

As someone who works with steel, this was an unbelievably cool video!

Let someone win a tour of the factory and get to help build a knife on your channel, it would be fun and a dream for a knife collector or even a kid that appreciates the work that goes into building these knives, shoot pick me if you need someone.

God one day I'm going to get that Marfione custom OTF, God I have never seen a more beautiful knife, the meteorite inlays, or that copper damascus blade, one day I hope to get one. Got to keep my secret savings account for important purchases like that. Something to pass down to the next generation kind of quality, boss game me a couple of cox knives with the spider webs on the handle and now I am hooked, very beautiful craftsmanship on those knives guys.

I love Microtech - I own 20, I also own a few Chris Reeve and a few Hinderer and I used to own Shiro but have sworn off non USA knives. The Microtech community has a subset of angry haters (probably 5% lol), that bitch and moan and whine about steel hardness, anodizing, quality (one wing nut says every Microtech he buys is defective which is beyond stupid)… Microtech is a phenomenal company with a phenomenal warranty, they have delivered some Type III, they have delivered Ti pocket clips with silicon carbide balls, they have delivered dual fuel, they have delivered ZBT, they have redesigned most of the glass breakers to be housed in titanium lower profile designs that feature an integrated lanyard and screw design, torx, the blade grinding is unmatched, and the prices have barely changed. I can concede the point that Microtech is not Alchemy or Cabot or Wilson with respect to touchy feely customer service but damn - I would rather have these continuous upgrades in the core products and can live with low shirt selection. It’s perspective - so to the 5% haters I say - no one cares or listens to you and to Microtech, I say keep delivering these amazing products and keep selling every knife you make because you deserve your incredible success

Great video guys, thank you for posting you have really turned up the heat lately and it shows 🎉

What an amazing video. I have some knife builds I'd like to do this year, with a K390 Para 3, and a Rex 45 Manix 2. What I'm hoping to do is get a low grade mirror polish on the blades, then get them DLC coated, then possibly have the text and logos lasered back on them. I'm not sure what the Rex is hardened to, but I think Spyderco hardens K390 to around 65 HRC. Polishing them is gonna be a bitch. Then I need to find someone to DLC coat them. Did a test run with one provider on a $45 Petrified Fish Victor, and wasn't super happy with the results, so need to find someone that can do an incredible DLC job for me. One thing I learned from Mr Marfionne is to consider only sharpening one side of the bevel after.

My first knife of 2025 is an Ultratech zbt. Can't wait.

Happy New Year!🎉🎉🎉

Green rouge compound is prob what it is. I use it to polish and strop a lot of the end stages of my hand sharpening jobs. Slowly moved to a 1-.5 diamond strop with better blade steels. All hand made by yours truly.

Thanks for maintaining a focus on quality 💯

Beyond information. This was EDUCATION. THANK YOU. 🤗

Thanks for the great video. My 2010 troodon dlc blade I think the handle is also dlc. The coating is holding up nicely no scratches at all.

Happy New Years

Happy New Year..

Happy new year!!! I’m stoked for the cooking show!!!

I have put my kunwu knifes three hell .. The dlc coating has never failed yet.. To anyone who thinks cerakote is better well I'm sorry .. Dlc is superior..
