Detailed product description

The Microtech Combat Troodon Gen III Bowie Apocalyptic Standard Black 1146-10AP automatic knife is a premium OTF automatic model that combines extreme robustness, high performance, and the signature precision of the Microtech brand in an aggressive tactical design.

The Combat Troodon is one of the largest and most durable knives in the Microtech Knives portfolio, and its third generation brings a significantly improved mechanism, stronger construction, and an overall smoother action. Compared to smaller OTF models, the Combat Troodon is designed for more demanding use and maximum reliability.

The defining feature of this variant is its approximately 9.5 cm Bowie blade, offering an excellent combination of cutting performance, penetration, and control during use. This shape is more versatile than a dagger profile and better suited for practical applications.

As soon as you take the knife in hand, its robustness and secure grip stand out immediately. Compared to smaller models, it feels noticeably more substantial, which you will appreciate during more demanding tasks where maximum stability is needed.

The blade is made from premium M390 powdered steel, which offers excellent edge retention, high corrosion resistance, and ranks among the absolute best knife steels available.

The Apocalyptic finish (stonewash) gives the knife a raw, “used” look while effectively masking minor scratches from regular use.

The OTF (out-the-front) automatic mechanism is double-action, meaning the blade is both deployed and retracted using a single control. Generation III delivers smoother operation, less blade play, and overall greater reliability.

The knife comes in typical Microtech packaging with box and manufacturer documentation.

The Microtech Combat Troodon Gen III is a knife that represents maximum performance, durability, and technological sophistication in the OTF automatic category.
