Q: What's the difference between the Gen 3 and Gen 4 Microtech UTX-85?
A: Nothing, absolutely nothing. They are identical. Microtech decided to dedicate the Gen III badge for ZBP models only, thus they have changed the name of the newest UTX-85 Gen III to UTX-85 Gen IV. They did not make any changes to the knife. Only a few GEN III labeled UTX-85 made it to market, so if you have one, it should be great for the collection.
At 85% the size of the Ultratech, the UTX-85 was designed to fit perfectly in your hand, making it a great choice for your everyday carry. The firing mechanism is easier to operate than the full-size Ultratech, making it ideal for smaller or sensitive hands. The UTX-85 still features a fully functional glass breaker along with all the features of the full-size Ultratech.
New UTX-85 Gen IV Enhancements:
- Dual Fuel Drivetrain - double springs reduce effort to fire
- Crud Cutter - grooves under button to clear debris
- Wider Button for more leverage
- Improved Clip - machined clip with silica carbide ball for ease of use and durability
