Heretic Knives Manticore-S Tanto DLC Elmax Twill Carbon Fiber OTF Automatic H023-6A-CF

The Heretic Knives Manticore-S is the smallest of the Manticore Series of double action, out the front, automatic knives. The scaled down Manticore-S has the same contoured aircraft grade aluminum handle with traction scallops and fluting for a stylish look, secure grip and compact carry. This Tanto version comes with a stonewashed black DLC coated Elmax blade, black frame and twill carbon fiber back cover.

Brand new, direct from Heretic Knives.

Blade: The slim, saber ground Tanto combines solid slicing with a strong piercing tip and flat surface cutting utility. Black DLC coated Elmax steel resists wear from use while being discreetly non-reflective. Deployment via the double action automatic mechanism is fast, smooth, and reliable. Simply press the slide up to open and down to close.

Handle: The contoured and fluted anodized aluminum frame and carbon fiber cover deliver about 3.5 inches of handle, long enough for a solid grip with a small carry footprint. Smooth chamfered edges paired with strategically placed scallops give a perfect blend of comfort and traction. Front and back are sterile for a clean look with company, model and serial number on the spine. The carbon fiber back adds style while reducing weight, complemented by black hardware and clip.

Carries via a right hand milled titanium pocket clip.

Bohler Elmax: Bohler Elmax is a popular choice for high-end user grade knives. Elmax is comparable to American CPM-S30V/S35VN in terms of edge retention, toughness, and sharpening with a slight improvement in corrosion resistance.
