The Heretic Knives Manticore-X is the largest of the Manticore Series of double action, out the front, automatic knives. The Manticore-X has a countered, 3D machined, aircraft grade aluminum handle with strategically placed scallops around the edge that delivers a comfortable and secure grip in the hand. This Tactical version comes with a double edge (one plain, one serrated), tumbled DLC coated, CPM S35VN blade, black anodized handles and black hardware.

Brand new item directly from Heretic Knives, USA.

Blade: The long Double Edge blade combines powerful cutting performance with an elegant slender look. High quality, American CPM-S35VN stainless steel blade was chosen for its balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance and edge toughness. The full serrated edge makes short work of fibrous materials and is devastating as a combat tool. The grinds have a tumbled Diamond-Like Carbon or DLC coating that offers a rugged, discreet look, enhances corrosion resistance and hides wear from use. It deploys via a dual action automatic mechanism for fast, smooth operation. Simply press the thumb slide up to open and then back down to close.

Handle: Milled, Black anodized aluminum offers 5.5 inches of handle, long enough for extra large or gloved hands. The contoured milling of the handle has smooth edges paired with strategically placed scalloped sections for excellent comfort and traction. The front and back of the handles are sterile with company, model and serial number markings on the spine. The handles are completed with Tactical black titanium Torx hardware visible on the back, a carbon fiber slide, integral lanyard hole and hardened steel glass breaker inset in the pommel.

Carries via a right hand, tip-down, black stainless steel deep carry pocket clip.

CPM S35VN: was designed to offer improved toughness over CPM S30V. It is also easier to machine and polish than CPM S30V. The inclusion of Niobium allows for the formation of niobium carbides along with vanadium and chromium carbides. Substituting niobium carbides for some of the vanadium carbides makes CPM S35VN about 15-20% tougher than CPM S30V without any loss of wear resistance. CPM S35VN’s improved toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping.
