Microtech Knives

The LUDT Gen III represents Microtech’s enduring legacy and a refined evolution of the renowned Underwater Demolition Team knife. Debuting in the mid-1990s, the LUDT quickly became one of Microtech’s best-selling blades, and after a temporary hiatus, we are excited to bring this iconic chassis back to our lineup.

The LUDT features a meticulously crafted blade with a crowned spine, thumb ramp jimping, a reinforced tip, and now a blood groove/fuller for enhanced penetration without compromising structural integrity. The blade finish not only elevates the knife’s aesthetics but also enhances durability. The handle uses 3M Traction Tape seamlessly integrated into the design, making this an ideal everyday carry (EDC) folder.

From the actuation button to the pocket clip, every detail has been refined for a cohesive, sophisticated look. The handle is precision-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, delivering both strength and a lightweight profile. With its ergonomic design and rapid deployment, the LUDT sets a benchmark for excellence in an all-purpose blade.

Backed by a proven track record, the LUDT Gen III returns to the lineup, now featuring Torx screws and a dedicated lanyard hole for added utility and security, underscoring Microtech’s commitment to meticulous craftsmanship.
