Combat Troodon
I have owned almost all of the Microtech OTF models. In addition, I own a few Microtech autos. I recently sold my UTX-85 because I wanted to feel the combat Troodon in hand. After, speaking with some friends and researching the model, I knew this model would be a solid choice. REC has always been great to me as a customer so I checked their inventory first. As soon as I saw the Merlot T/E I knew this was the one. During checkout, I was also reminded of REC's customer service again by them offering Fedex shipping at reduced rates. I received this blade in a few days. The knife itself has a solid construction handle and the charging spring is much tighter than any smaller model of the otf line up. I have strong hands, so the strength of the open/close was exciting. Between the construction, the harder springs, and blade type/thickness its obvious this was made for hard use.The blade is currently made in 204p American Carpenter steel. I ran a strop over the edge to give it a tighter edge. The scale color is a darker maroon color, deeper than other models. I previously owned the Ultratech and it was lighter in color. The darker maroon scale and 2 tone blade really pop together. I would recommend this combat troodon for someone that has strong hands, likes a hard firing otf, and enjoys larger knives. Check your state for laws regarding these and stick with REC, they do a great job!
