Microtech Scarab II S/E Stonewashed M390 Drop Point Black OTF Automatic Knife 278-10

Being a blend of the tactical Combat Troodon OTF, Socom Elite and EDC Ultratech, the Scarab II from Microtech is the perfect choice when you are looking for a low drag, tactical daily carry option. Construction and operation are Microtech standard with a snappy dual coil spring automatic action. This version has a flat, black hard anodized aluminum handle with black traction inserts and a stonewashed drop point blade.

Brand new directly from Microtech Knives, USA.

Blade: Fluted channels on the flats and spine of the blade help keep the channels clear on the Scarab II and allow it to fire while fully submerged. The drop point profile is highly utilitarian for general use with a high saber grind for balanced slicing and durability and a tip swedge for enhanced piercing. A rugged stonewashed finish hides wear from heavy use and provides a subtle contrast with the satin flats and spine. Action is reliably fast and smooth thanks to the double action automatic mechanism. Move the thumb slide up to deploy and down to retract. An internal spring remains at rest in both the open and closed position to reduce wear.

Handle: A smooth, black hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle is equipped with black traction inserts front and back for optimal traction even when wet. Several areas of machine-grooved texturing around the outsides enhance traction for added security. Construction is completed with stainless Torx hardware, glass breaker end with lanyard loop and pocket clip with individual serial number, date of production and logo.

Carries via a reversible, tip-down, stainless steel deep carry clip.

Bohler M390: Bohler M390 has become an extremely popular choice for high-end user grade knives thanks to its exceptional edge retention. M390 also has a good corrosion resistance, meaning most users can avoid problems by simply wiping off their blade after each use. Another great feature of this steel is the ability to resist burr formation during sharpening. Comparable steels are CTS-204P and Duratech 20CV.
