Product Description

The Heretic Auto Pariah H048-CS-SC pairs a 3.75-inch CPM MagnaCut blade with Heretic's Secret Cel Shade finish, bringing the brand's push-button automatic mechanism to the Pariah platform in a bold, high-contrast colorway.

CPM MagnaCut is Crucible's stainless steel engineered specifically for knife blades by metallurgist Larrin Thomas, rather than optimizing for one property, MagnaCut is formulated to deliver strong edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness simultaneously, closing the gap that usually forces a tradeoff between the three. Its balanced carbide structure keeps it easier to sharpen than extreme high-vanadium steels like CPM-S90V, while still outperforming older workhorse stainless steels like D2, 154CM, and CPM-S30V on corrosion resistance and edge stability.

Secret Cel Shade is a specific named pattern within Heretic's broader Cel Shade cosmetic line, seen elsewhere in this catalog on the Medusa platform, here applied to the Pariah's blade over the same CPM MagnaCut steel regardless of finish.

The automatic mechanism deploys the blade at the push of a button, Heretic's automatics typically use an out-the-front (OTF) design, though this should be confirmed for the Pariah platform specifically.
