Microtech Exocet OTF Automatic Knife Sandtrooper D/E AUMT1571SA

The Microtech Exocet OTF Automatic Knife Sandtrooper D/E brings bold character and compact automatic performance together in one of the most visually striking variations of the Exocet platform. Built for discreet everyday carry, the Exocet’s slim profile and sub-2" blade make it easy to keep close at hand while delivering the fast, precise action Microtech is known for.

This version features a 1.94" premium steel dagger blade finished with a distressed white coating that gives it a rugged, battle-worn appearance. The finish looks as though it’s seen long service in harsh conditions, creating a unique visual texture that sets it apart from standard coatings. The double-edge blade offers excellent piercing performance and balanced cutting capability in a compact format.

The Exocet’s dual action out-the-front mechanism deploys and retracts the blade smoothly with a thumb slide, locking securely in place when open. The design was created to meet California blade carry standards, making it a practical option for those who want Microtech’s automatic performance in a smaller footprint.

The handles are crafted from anodized 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in distressed white to match the blade’s weathered aesthetic. The result is a look reminiscent of battle-scarred armor worn by disciplined soldiers patrolling harsh desert worlds. The finish gives the knife a worn, field-issued character that collectors and fans of sci‑fi inspired gear immediately recognize.

An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip doubles as an extra-wide money clip, offering secure carry while keeping the knife slim in the pocket. Additional features include a built-in glass breaker and a lanyard hole for expanded utility. Measuring 3.87" closed and weighing just 2.75 ounces, the Exocet remains compact, lightweight, and ready when you need it. Like every Microtech automatic, it’s proudly made in the USA with exceptional precision and craftsmanship.
