The Microtech LUDT Gen III S/E Apocalyptic Standard Merlot is a refined evolution of a tactical everyday carry classic, combining proven design heritage with modern performance upgrades. Retaining the iconic LUDT profile, this Gen III version enhances grip security, deployment smoothness, and field serviceability for reliable use in both daily and demanding environments.
The Merlot anodized aluminum handle delivers a striking yet functional aesthetic, offering lightweight strength with excellent corrosion resistance. Inlaid 3M® traction tape improves grip stability in wet, dry, or gloved conditions, while the ergonomic contouring ensures comfortable handling and reduced fatigue during extended use.
The 3.51-inch drop point blade is crafted for versatile cutting performance, making it suitable for utility tasks, precision work, and general everyday carry needs. Finished in Microtech's apocalyptic coating, the blade provides a low-glare, wear-resistant surface designed to withstand harsh use while maintaining a rugged appearance. The plain edge geometry supports long-lasting sharpness and easy maintenance.
A precision bearing pivot system ensures ultra-smooth, consistent blade deployment with minimal effort, delivering reliable one-handed operation every time. The blade locks securely into place for stable and confident use during cutting tasks.
Designed for practical maintenance, the LUDT Gen III features standard Torx hardware, allowing easy disassembly and servicing without specialized tools. This enhances long-term usability and simplifies field upkeep.
At 8 inches overall and 4.49 inches closed, the knife offers an ideal balance between compact carry and full cutting capability. A tip-up pocket clip ensures secure and discreet pocket placement. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Microtech's commitment to precision engineering, durability, and real-world performance.
