The first version of the knife was produced over twenty years ago, and there have been a lot of little changes and improvements since then. The Gen III LUDT differs in several subtle but significant ways from its most recent predecessor: minor styling changes, the inclusion of inlays, its use of standard Torx screws, and—most notably—its ultra-smooth, ultra-solid silica carbide ball bearing pivot. This LUDT is the first Microtech automatic knife to feature Microtech's proprietary Bohler M390MK super steel, which has improved edge retention over conventional M390. If you need a pocket knife you can rely on that will hold its razor edge and fire reliably, this latest LUDT is sure to satisfy.<br><br>\n\nFeatures:\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Anodized aluminum handle with 3M grip inlays and standard Torx hardware.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Secure button lock that secures the blade open and closed.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Steel tip-up pocket clip for secure, convenient carry.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Stonewashed drop point blade made from Bohler M390MK steel.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Push button opener with a silica carbide ball bearing pivot.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\nSpecifications:\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Cutting Edge: 3.00"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Handle Length: 4.50"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Handle Width: 0.875"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Handle Thickness: 0.53"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Overall Length: 8.00"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Model Number: 1135-10\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Width: 1.125"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Lock Type: Button Lock\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Opener: Push Button\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Knife Type: Automatic\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Weight: 3.60 oz.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Material: Bohler M390MK\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Pivot Type: Bearings\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>User: Right Hand\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Origin: USA\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Length: 3.50"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Thickness: 0.125"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Pocket Clip: Tip-Up\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Finish: Stonewash\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Grind: Flat\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blade Style: Drop Point\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Handle Material: Aluminum\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n"
