🗡️ Blade – Drop Point S/E
Drop point blade provides a versatile, strong and all-round profile that is great for:

-
high blade retention
-
excellent wear resistance
-
good corrosion resistance
These materials are common in premium Microtech models and provide long-lasting performance without frequent sharpening interventions.
🧩 Handle – Brown Anodized Aluminum
The handle is made of anodised 6061-T6 aluminium in a brown finish that looks both professional and elegant. The textured surface increases grip and overall comfort during handling.
-
3D CNC milled anti-slip texture
-
Recessed side slider
-
Ambidextrous deep-carry clip (right/left, tip-down)
-
Robust construction suitable for frequent use
The brown colour gives the knife its original character and at the same time better hides small signs of wear.
