Combat Troodon & Hera II disassembly/reassembly 

SO cool to see Microtech open up to teaching the inner workings of their products. Leaving it to the pros is always best, but for the seasoned knife lover who's taken tons of knives apart. Having an official tutorial is just awesome.

Great video. Background music makes me feel like I’m getting a deep tissue massage. But seriously… great video. Just purchased my 4th Microtech, the Hera II. Also I’ll clean and lubricate but I’m not taking any of them apart. I’m leaving that to the professionals.

M-tech pays attention to detail…. That’s why I buy them. Where art meets functionality, just look at that toothpick they showed! I bet it is military grade T-300 tooth agitation device!😂.

This is an excellent video! Very important and useful information. It's also oddly relaxing, nice to listen to, like asmr. 😅

wow , things are changing, evolving .......great job guys !!!

Hope you can make a ramlock video aswell! :)

Thanks for sharing this information Ray!! But I think I’d rather send it back and let the professionals handle any problems that I may have with any of my knives!!!! And thankfully I haven’t had any issues with any of my OTF blades which is a true testament of the build quality of them!! Keep up the amazing content and I’ll see you in the next awesome video!!!

Thanks for the video! Nicely done!

This a beautiful knife hands down, I can’t wait to get my hands on one of these in my next paycheck

Very informative. Thanks!

Great info, great detail and nice camera work, thanks!

Great vid, Ray! 👊🗡️👍

Thanks !

Thanks for making this video. Appreciate you guys showing us how to do this.

Excellent very informativ. Thanks!

I assume this I the same with the cypher 2. Thanks guys! Living the cypher 2. Feels like an upgraded ultratech in a way

Thanks for sharing this Ray, very nicely explained.

Holy shit! We can service our OTFs ourselves???? Too bad I have an 2021 combat troodon with different hardware

What's the stubby ratcheted Torx driver - that looks neat!!

Waiting patiently for the Atreus 🤩

amazing going from "spraying it full of Rem oil and leaving it upside down" to "2 small drops on the back of the blade"

Please bring back the gear drop information videos.

New Glykon owner here. I cannot ship my unit with the blade to your Repair dept. If I loose a spring can I remove the blade and send it without the blade - and install it when the chassis is returned? Of course I'll cover all FedEx courier fees. Thanks!

I'm a fan of Ray now. He's a passionate employee and a solid dude🎉

In addition to not giving torque numbers, is Microtech now not giving each knife a serial number?

How do we get the tool for the custom head screws I have a makora signature series as well as a bounty hunter exocet. The hawk and stitch doesn't really matter

Question: What tools would we need for the mini hera?

❤❤❤❤❤❤

I was just looking at purchasing one of these next week.... The fact that you don't sell a spare parts kit (springs, screws) is a deal-breaker. WTF?

Awesome informative video! Just curious, how come the new models aren’t serialized?

Can you purchase different style blades for an OTF? Exe: if I have a new Combat Troodon with a double edge but want to get a single edge blade for it… do you all sell blades individually?

The springs in my Combat Troodon are already pretty weak. Ive had it for about a year with very controlled opening and closings.

What about knives we have sent I for repair? I sent my knife in for service almost 10 weeks ago. Thank you.

What about the earlier models with proprietary screws, are we free to disassemble them without woiding warranty?

Hey Ray i have a question. I have scarab 2 gen 2 and stop pin in the blade is not removable. What can i do if i want to remove it? Or how could i remove it so i can properly clean my scarab 2? Thank you and I appreciate your answer.

If u disassemble your knife it voids the warranty right?

If you’re main tools are vise grips and/or needle nose pliers then this video is probably not for you…lol. 😂😂😂

Why are there 2 different peoples hands in video?

Haha there sick of people sending back knives lol so do it yourself ') A+

Yeah you need torque specs, a reputable company has torque specs, betting on hopes and dreams wishing lock tight will hold no bueno

Wonder why he won’t give bolt torque specs? Lots of folks having to send theirs back for work these days I hope they can get their qt back to what it used to be.
