L.U.D.T. GEN III Tanto Black Standard Blade w/ Natural Clear Handles

Microtech Knives

In 2023, Microtech introduced the LUDT Gen III, representing the pinnacle of the company's legacy and a refined version of the well-known Underwater Demolition Team knife. Initially launched in the mid-1990s, the LUDT quickly became one of Microtech's best-selling knives in history. After a temporary absence from Microtech's product lineup, we are excited to announce the comeback of this iconic blade.

The LUDT features a meticulously crafted blade with a crowned spine, thumb ramp jimping, a reinforced tip, and now includes a blood groove/fuller, ensuring exceptional penetration performance without compromising on structural integrity. The blade's finish not only enhances its visual appeal but also contributes to its exceptional durability. The handle, seamlessly integrating 3M Traction Tape into its design, elevates this knife to the status of an ideal everyday carry (EDC) folder.

Every element, from the actuation button to the pocket clip, has been refined and enhanced to create a cohesive and sophisticated overall look. The handle, crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum with precision machining, not only provides strength but also maintains a lightweight profile. With its ergonomic design and rapid deployment, the LUDT serves as a model of excellence in an all-encompassing blade.

With a proven track record that has stood the test of time, the 2023 LUDT Gen III makes a triumphant return to the Microtech lineup. This distinguished tool now includes Torx screws and a dedicated lanyard hole, offering both practical functionality and an additional layer of security to its meticulous craftsmanship.
