Product Description
The Heretic Knives Manticore S OTF H024-6A-ULTEM is a compact out-the-front automatic built around a 2.6-inch CPM MagnaCut blade, set in a black aluminum handle with Ultem accents, Heretic's proven push-button OTF platform sized to disappear in a pocket, for buyers who want automatic deployment with a distinctive material contrast.
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.
Ultem (polyetherimide) is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic prized in knife making for its light weight, chemical resistance, and distinctive translucent amber appearance, on this Manticore S it's paired with a black aluminum handle for material and visual contrast rather than used as the sole handle material.
The out-the-front mechanism fires the blade straight out of the front of the handle at the push of a button and retracts it the same way, no manual flip, thumb stud, or disengage step required.
