Heretic Manticore E Recurve Two Tone Gold Blade - Black Grenade Grip Chassis - Gold Hardware

The Manticore E - Heretic's EDC-Sized OTF with Tactical Flair

Heretic Manticore E Recurve - Two Tone Gold Blade with Black Grenade Grip and Gold Hardware

The Manticore E hits the sweet spot between the pocket-friendly S and the full-size X, delivering what Heretic calls their solution to EDC needs. At just under 8" overall and 2.2 ounces, this mid-sized OTF was designed for everyone from uniformed professionals who need a blade on their kit to civilians who want reliable one-handed operation without the bulk. The 3.125" recurve blade in MagnaCut steel features a striking two-tone gold finish that makes this knife as much a statement piece as it is a working tool, while the recurve profile excels at draw cuts and slicing tasks that straight edges struggle with.

What makes this configuration special is the combination of the black grenade grip chassis with gold hardware - a bold contrast that screams tactical elegance. The grenade texture isn't just for aesthetics; it provides positive grip even with wet or gloved hands, while the gold-finished hardware including the pocket clip adds a touch of class to the tactical design. Like all Manticores, the E features double-action operation with a stepped thumb slide for confident deployment and retraction, plus the integrated hardened steel glass breaker and lanyard hole that tactical users demand. The reversible deep-carry clip accommodates both left and right-hand carry, making this the OTF for those who want serious capability in a package that actually fits in dress pants or uniform pockets.
