The Ultratech will forever set the standard for all out-the-front knives. The Ultratech is Microtech’s original dual-action out-the-front knife and has been the foundation of their entire OTF line. Over the years, it has gone through several modifications, each time becoming more efficient and reliable. The Ultratech’s spring remains in an “at rest” position at all times except when deployed. This ensures that the compressed spring will not become fatigued, assuring users that when the knife is fired, it will operate effectively. The Ultratech’s light weight, one-handed open and close action, slim shape and scalpel-sharp, double-edge tanto blade make it a one-of-a-kind knife, only available through Microtech. This knife has proven time and again that it can withstand any obstacle and look for the other half of this two-blade paired set coming soon.
I had the privilege of spending an afternoon training with Jim, and highly recommend him to anyone wanting to level up their shooting accuracy and speed.
I attended a two day course with Jim focused on pistol training. I can’t say enough about Jim and the experience as a whole. My mechanics and shooting improved drastically in a short amount of time. Jim is a very capable teacher, and his passion for shooting and sharing knowledge is very evident. Not to mention you probably won’t go any longer than a few minutes before the next laugh. This was not my first class with Jim, and it won’t be my last.
I took the Tactical Pistol Class offered by Jim in Scottsdale in December 2022. He presented a lot of valuable information throughout the course and made sure to present it in a way that was approachable by any level of shooter. His emphasis on ensuring that the course material fit each participants needs extended through both the instructional portion and the range portion. On the range Jim was able to quickly gauge each participant’s skill level during each drill and give personalized suggestions for improvement.
Jim’s resume speaks for itself, but his laid back, friendly, and personal approach to teaching the material is what will bring me to another one of his classes when he is in town.
As a retired military man and fire fighter I have to say this was one of the most professional, knowledgeable, innovative courses of any sort I have ever gone through first hand. Everyone involved was nothing but professional intelligent and interactive on every level possible to make sure that the total experience was learning and helpful and motivating for everybody to accomplish what they set out to be. The attitudes both students and faculty were uplifting and I can’t say enough on how much it reminded me of my former experiences being in the military and in the fire department. On a scale of 1 to 10 it is a 10+ because the class is everything that he would hope for and more and I can’t recommend it enough for anyone from a basic shooter to an experienced shooter to experience firsthand.
Jim offered a Fundamentals and Mindset class at The Modern Sportsman in Burnsville last evening – his presentation, his incredible passion and real world experience in addition to his real world honed skillset and fundamental roadmap were second to none! Absolutely fantastic!!! Thanks for taking the time to share your incredible insight!!!
