MICROTECH LUDT Gen III S/E Stonewashed Turquoise – 1135-10TQ
The 2023 MICROTECH LUDT Gen III is the latest evolution of the legendary Underwater Demolition Team (UDT) knife, bringing refined craftsmanship and modern enhancements to a time-tested design. Originally introduced in the mid-1990s, the LUDT quickly became one of MICROTECH’s best-selling knives, and after a brief hiatus, this iconic blade is back—better than ever.
Designed for elite performance, the LUDT Gen III features a stonewashed Bohler M390MK stainless steel blade with a crowned spine, reinforced tip, and blood groove/fuller for superior penetration and durability. The turquoise aluminum handle is enhanced with 3M Traction Tape for an exceptional grip, making this an ideal EDC knife.
Every component of the LUDT Gen III, from the actuation button to the pocket clip, has been meticulously refined. Aircraft-grade aluminum construction ensures both strength and lightweight handling, while the new Torx screw construction and dedicated lanyard hole add practical utility and security. With lightning-fast deployment and ergonomic precision, the LUDT Gen III represents the pinnacle of MICROTECH’s commitment to excellence.
