Microtech is a medium sized knife manufacturer located in Bradford, PA. The company was founded in Vero Beach, FL in 1994, by Anthony Marfione, but then moved to Pennsylvania a decade later.
I recommend purchasing Microtech knives at BladeHQ.
Microtech Knife Reviews
Here are all of our reviews of Microtech Knives so far:
Microtech Dirac Review
Buy the Microtech Dirac at BladeHQ “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” (Arthur C. Clarke, 1962) Every time I use my Microtech Dirac, I feel like I’m doing a magic trick. The Dirac is an out-the-front (OTF) switchblade, and its 2 7/8” (74 mm) blade snaps out and back in so fast that my eye ...
Microtech Exocet Review
In these uncertain times, it feels like an indulgence to sit down and write a knife review. I ask, should I even be doing this? To go about reviewing expensive pocket trinkets while the world unravels like a ball of yarn? The website has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure, but I’ve yet ...
Microtech UTX-85 Review
Buy the UTX-85 at BladeHQ Knives function differently in a collector’s life than a normal person’s. They serve as a connection between people, a stress reliever, a sense of importance, a focus of learning, and yes, even sometimes a tool. Microtech, I think, is an excellent example of something that can occupy all of these roles. ...
Microtech Troodon Review
I’ve got a couple Microtech knife reviews under my belt at this point, and as far as their automatics go I’ve reviewed the Halo VI and the Stitch. Something that is obviously missing from the picture is one of their dual action Out The Front (OTF) knives. The OTF autos are are the knives Microtech ...
Microtech Halo VI Review
“I tried being reasonable. I didn’t like it.” Buy the Microtech Halo VI at BladeHQ I always enjoyed that quote from Clint Eastwood, and couldn’t help but think about it as I wielded the Halo VI. There is absolutely nothing reasonable about this knife. Any justification that this would be my “new EDC” went completely out ...
Microtech Stitch Review
Hot on the heels of my review of the Microtech Sigil, I decided to pick up the Stitch. This knife was designed by Sebastijan Berenji of Borka Blades. Buy the Microtech Stitch at BladeHQ What I find interesting about Sebastian’s story is that he started out as an enthusiast. If I recall correctly, he was a ...
Microtech Sigil MK6 Review
There is depth to the knife industry. So much depth that a reviewer can review knives for 5 years, hire on 3 other writers to review knives, amass a catalog of over 300 knife reviews, and still not review knives from all the major manufacturers. That’s case with this website and Microtech at least. ...
Hey Dan,
I am a knife fan and about to get my first OTF. My first choice was the Microtech Ultratech but I also like the newly designed D Rocket Designs Zulu Spear very much. I like the Microtech established brand but the D Rocket Zulu is better looking and shorter blade (which I prefer). I am not quite sure about the long term quality of D Rocket though. I was wondering if you have any opinion or any experience on this? any advice will be great.
Li,
Thanks for stopping by. Honestly, this is the first time I have heard of the D Rocket Designs Zulu Spear. The reviews on BladeHQ are favorable, and the knife is less expensive than an Ultratech. Personally, given my experience with Microtech products, I know the Ultratech is a great knife with a long track record. I have never handled the Zulu Spear. But people in the review section on BHQ seem to like their Zulu Spears. It could be a great knife.
Sorry I couldn’t be of more help here.
Dan
