Grove City, OH: If you know The Knife Connection, you likely know it as a specialist retailer of high-end bushcraft and survival knives, such as LT Wright, White River, and ESEE Knives. You might also know it as a retailer that carries a variety of aftermarket essentials like knife sheaths and scales.
But The Knife Connection also carries a wide range of high-end knives from other popular brands, such as Microtech Knives.
This brand in particular rounds out their catalog, and it’s easy to see why, when the brand is well-known for profiles that are ESEE and LT Wright adjacent in look and aesthetic, such as the Akris, a knife that’s well-suited to hunting, survival, bushcraft, camping and other similar disciplines.
Like many other high-end knives from similarly-respected manufacturers, the Akris is available with a super-steel blade (M390, which is exceptionally corrosion resistant and tough without being impossible to resharpen) along with nearly bombproof G10 scales.
But what you might not have known is that Microtech Knives also represent some other niche, specialty designs that are better suited for EDC or defensive applications than the model already invoked.
One need not look further than the Marifione Select Push Dagger, a Push Dagger with a slight inward curve to the blade, making it ideal not just for push maneuvers, but for draw cuts and slashing maneuvers. It’s also available with a serrated blade.
Made with 440C steel, it is corrosion-resistant and low-maintenance; it also comes with a titanium handle and a Kydex sheath that offers a great deal of flexibility in how you mount and carry it. A far cry from a bushcraft knife, a Microtech knife like this is ideally suited for backup carry as a defensive blade.
Then there are options like the Ultratech Gen IV D/E Half Tri-Grip OTF automatic knife. One of the most highly-regarded OTFs on the market, and available in several different colors, it’s outfitted with titanium handles, and sports a lightning-quick double action; which means that the same mechanism that deploys and locks the blade also retracts it. As a result, the knife can be used with just one hand.
These are just a few of the things that make Microtech Knives some of the most coveted on the market, but it’s also just a small cross-sectional sample of what the brand offers.
The Knife Connection carries the Microtech Knives mentioned here, along with many others. For more information, or if you have any questions, visit their website or get in touch with them at 1-614-277-8937 or at Support@TheKnifeConnection.com.
