Precision Meets Pedigree - The Ultimate Backup Automatic

Heretic Manticore S TE - Black with Battleworn Hardware & Blade

Born from the legacy of Microtech royalty - Anthony Marfione Jr.'s Florida-based Heretic Knives - the Manticore S represents the perfect synthesis of compact power and tactical functionality. This is the smallest member of the acclaimed Manticore OTF family, delivering the same double-action performance trusted by operators and enthusiasts in a sub-2 ounce package that disappears in your pocket.

The battleworn finish on both blade and hardware tells a story before you've even deployed it - this isn't jewelry, it's a tool meant for work. The Elmax steel tanto blade provides exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance, while the worn finish reduces reflectivity for those who prefer discretion. At just 2.625" of cutting edge, it's legal in more jurisdictions than its larger siblings while sacrificing nothing in terms of build quality or action.

What sets the Manticore S apart is the silky-smooth double-action deployment - one handed operation via the stepped thumb slide fires the blade with authority and retracts just as smoothly. The contoured aluminum handle with jimping provides exceptional grip control despite the compact size, while the integrated steel glass breaker and lanyard hole add emergency utility. This is American craftsmanship at its finest - 100% USA made and assembled with the attention to detail that comes from small production runs.
