Product Description

The Heretic Knives Manticore X Frag Chassis OTF H032F-10C-T is the largest Manticore in this lineup, built around a 3.70-inch full serrated CPM MagnaCut blade in a 2-tone finish, set in a black aluminum Frag Chassis handle, for buyers who want maximum cutting capability on tough, fibrous materials 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 full serrated edge on this Manticore X trades the clean push-cutting of a plain edge for aggressive sawing performance on tough, fibrous materials like rope, seatbelts, and heavy cordage, a fully serrated blade keeps cutting even as the edge dulls in spots, though it's more demanding to sharpen and less precise for fine detail work than a plain edge.

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 full serrated blade, 2-tone finish, balanced edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness; full serration adds aggressive sawing performance on rope, seatbelts, and fibrous materials at the cost of sharpening ease and edge precision.
• 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 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.
