Product Description

The Heretic Knives Manticore X Frag Chassis OTF H032F-10A-T is the largest Manticore in this lineup, built around a 3.70-inch double edge CPM MagnaCut blade in a 2-tone finish, set in a black aluminum Frag Chassis handle, for buyers who want a symmetrical, thrust-oriented dagger blade in a push-button OTF platform.

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.

The double edge grind on this Manticore X sharpens both sides of the blade to a point rather than the single-edge-plus-spine layout of a standard drop point or tanto, a dagger grind is built around thrust geometry and symmetry rather than general utility slicing, and in most jurisdictions double edge knives carry additional legal restrictions beyond standard single-edge automatics.

The 2-tone finish combines two distinct surface treatments on the same CPM MagnaCut blade for visual contrast, the steel and performance stay the same regardless of which finish combination is applied.

The Frag Chassis handle pairs Heretic's Fragment cosmetic pattern with a chassis-style aluminum handle construction, in black for this configuration.

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.

• Blade: 3.70" CPM MagnaCut double edge (dagger) blade, 2-tone finish, balanced edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness; symmetrical thrust-oriented grind rather than a single-edge utility profile.
• Handle: Black aluminum Frag Chassis construction, handle texture not confirmed this session, verify against hereticknives.com.
• Deployment: Out-the-front (OTF) automatic, push-button fire and retract, no manual disengage step; fully enclosed blade when closed.
• Carry: 3.70-inch double edge blade platform, the largest in the Manticore lineup covered this session, overall length, closed length, and weight not confirmed this session, verify against hereticknives.com before publishing.
