LUDT Gen III Automatic Knife – Purple Anodized Aluminum Handle, M390MK Tanto Blade, Button Lock – Made in USA (MCT113610PU)

L.U.D.T. Gen III – Small Size, Big Attitude

The Microtech L.U.D.T. Gen III (MCT113610PU) is a streamlined version of the classic UDT and CQC‑7 design, rebuilt with modern materials and compacted into a carry-friendly package. This version features a 3.5″ Bohler M390MK tanto blade in a stonewash finish and a purple anodized aluminum handle, all backed by Microtech’s refined ball-bearing button lock system.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply

I’ve carried this one in pocket and pack, and it’s deceptively light at around 3.6 oz but feels solid when you need it. That purple aluminum handle never fails to draw attention, and the M390MK blade stays sharp even under hard use. It’s compact tactical precision made in the USA.

Why This Knife Stands Out

• Bohler M390MK Steel Blade – 3.5″ stonewash-finished tanto blade delivers exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and strength 

• Push-Button Automatic with Button Lock – Fast, reliable deployment and secure closure thanks to a precision mechanism with ball-bearing pivot 

• Purple Anodized Aluminum Handle – Slim, stylish, and durable, with traction inserts to improve grip and minimize weight 

• Compact & Pocketable – Measures ~8″ overall, closes to ~4.5″, and carries easily at just ~3.6 oz 

Specifications

With its vivid color, precise automatic action, and M390MK cutting edge, the L.U.D.T. Gen III Purple shines in both form and function. Built in the USA for those who demand reliability, style, and compact tactical readiness.
