Nice knives man 👍 Do you have a way to disassemble your Combat Troodon? Coat your springs in white lithium grease and the spring twing will be gone. 🤙

Nice review. What's the actual cutting edge in the UTX70 knife? Not quite sure whether to pull the trigger on this one or not because the price is even steeper for these in EU...so for now I ordered a Chinese clone to see whether I like it or not. I'd love to use this as a jogging knife since you don't feel it and I'm pretty sure the double edge would be effective if shit hits the fan, but I'm worried that the handle would be a little short for the knife to be safe under stressful circumstances...

How was the clone? I'll have to pull one back out to find the cutting edge. It's the majority of the blade though.

@@hoopersmith in the end I ordered both a UTX70 and an Ultratech clone. The 70 is too small, hard to grab, not really viable for a last ditch. The Ultra feels about just right. I wouldn't want to go smaller, these are kind slippery knives anyway. I ended up using a Bastinelli Mako folder for that same purpose. It's no auto but it deploys quick with the bram frank opening, easy to clean and basically can't rust being N690CO. Also easy to grab thanks to the ring.

Is thr troodon to small for a full comfortable grip, do i need a ultra tech b vigger for that?
@hoopersmith8 ай бұрын
The Troodon is a bit small to me. The Ultratech is good length but a bit narrow.
@Mazeingpower8 ай бұрын
i like ultra tech the most the other bigger models are just to heavy for my choosing.
@justinhorn28642 жыл бұрын
The scarab your model has 2 springs side by side. The others ultra, combat whatever just one spring

Where is the best, cheapest place to buy one?
@hoopersmith4 ай бұрын
Check the online shops and join a couple of Facebook groups. Every so often a deal will pop up. Just make sure you verify the seller and don't fall for a scam. The cheapest way I've seen is to catch a blade show special though.

You should get a Halo VI and Mini Troodon. Both with Hellhound blade 🤘
@hoopersmith Жыл бұрын
The mini troodon looks cool, I'm just not sure I can justify the price. I'd probably lean more to the 85 at that point. A Halo would be a good addition for sure.

my utx 70 is like butter, my combat troodon is getting stiff to close : you may want to buy "the tool"' (maybe not the one from microtech) a proper cleaning is far better than drenching it in Rem oil or similar products..
