Here are a pair of Microtech Minis, both are 5.5 in. overall with 2.5 in. blades. As indicated in the photos the black Mini UDT has a 440-C beadblasted blade and was made in 2002. The handle inserts feel like rubber. The Mini UMS has a 154-CM satin blade and was made in 2005. The handle inserts feel like sandpaper. This one has a pocket clip.
I bought both new and obviously have owned them for some years. Both are great carry knives, razor sharp and very well made.

Re: Microtech Minis
Great knives, wish I would have kept the one I bought, thanks for showing them!
Re: Microtech Minis
those are cool little microtechs, I'm liking that blue. Don't see many of these small MT's, especially the older ones like this.
Re: Microtech Minis
Very nice, sir. The original knife from M/T, first one in '94. I have a few, if selling, your UMS will bring a premium. The inserts are probably skate board tape, the '02 is rubber. M/Ts son has the rights and is making new ones. I have a damascus blade one with added Mastodon inserts.
Re: Microtech Minis
Thanks for the info Tom. Skateboard tape - yes, it sure feels like that, at least that is how I remember my son's skateboards feeling when he left them in the way and I had to move them

Re: Microtech Minis
Does the UMS also have a safety ?
Re: Microtech Minis
No safety on mine, Tom.
