The Microtech LUDT Gen III T/E Stonewash Standard Merlot is a modern evolution of a tactical classic, refined for enhanced performance, durability, and everyday carry practicality. Retaining the iconic silhouette of the original LUDT, this updated version introduces improved ergonomics, smoother deployment, and upgraded materials for reliable long-term use.
The Merlot anodized aluminum handle provides a distinctive aesthetic while ensuring lightweight strength and corrosion resistance. Integrated 3M® traction tape enhances grip security, delivering a stable, non-slip hold in wet, dry, or gloved conditions. The ergonomic contouring ensures comfortable handling during extended use, reducing fatigue during repetitive tasks.
The 3.51-inch tanto blade is crafted from premium Böhler M390MK stainless steel, known for its outstanding edge retention, hardness, and corrosion resistance. Finished in a durable stonewash coating, the blade minimizes visible wear while maintaining a clean, tactical appearance. The tanto profile reinforces the tip for piercing strength while maintaining excellent slicing capability.
A high-performance bearing pivot system enables smooth, rapid, and consistent blade deployment with a satisfying mechanical action. Once open, the blade locks securely into place, ensuring dependable performance during demanding cutting tasks.
Designed for serviceability, the LUDT Gen III utilizes standard Torx hardware, allowing easy maintenance and adjustments without specialized tools. This practical design ensures long-term reliability and user-friendly upkeep.
At 8 inches overall and 4.49 inches closed, the LUDT offers an ideal balance between portability and functional cutting power. A tip-up pocket clip ensures secure and convenient carry. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Microtech's commitment to precision engineering and professional-grade performance.
