Microtech Scarab DE-S Gen III Sand Standard – 1180-1SN

Step into a world where split-second decisions and unwavering reliability define success. The Microtech Scarab II is the ultimate tactical out-the-front knife engineered for operatives who demand peak performance in the heat of action. Inspired by the legendary Ultratech, the Scarab II combines razor-sharp precision, rock-solid durability, and lightning-fast deployment to give you the edge when every second counts.

At its heart, the Scarab II boasts a dual-action OTF mechanism that lets you open or retract the blade with a single, fluid motion—no fumbling, no hesitation. Gen III’s revolutionary dual-fuel drivetrain generates explosive force with each press, guaranteeing smooth, unstoppable blade deployment even when submerged. Whether you’re breaching a locked door or navigating underwater obstacles, the Scarab II fires into action without missing a beat.

Crafted from premium Bohler M390 MK stainless steel, the Scarab II’s nearly four-inch dagger-style blade slices through tough materials and holds its edge mile after mile. The two-tone finish—elegant satin flats paired with a stealthy black coating—resists corrosion and masks glare during covert operations. You’ll feel the difference the moment you grip its heavy-duty aluminum handle, complete with textured traction inlays that lock your hand in place, even when wearing gloves or facing rain, sweat, or snow.

Maintenance is a breeze thanks to the updated button-pocket design, which minimizes friction and ejects debris every time you cycle the blade. That means fewer field cleanings and maximum uptime when lives depend on your tools. A tip-down, reversible pocket clip ensures secure carry and quick access from either side, while an integrated carbide glass breaker transforms the Scarab II into a versatile rescue tool in emergencies.

Every detail of the Scarab II reflects Microtech’s commitment to uncompromising quality. From Torx-fastened billet construction to Tony Marfione’s signature design cues, this knife shatters expectations—and template-made mediocrity—at every turn. Whether you’re on a covert operation, a rescue mission, or simply tackling tough jobs around camp, the Scarab II stands ready to deliver unmatched performance, day in and day out.
