Automatic Knives Descriptions
Kershaw Launch 6
This slim—and ever-so-slightly wicked-looking—knife features premium CPM154 blade steel. This powdered metallurgy steel offers more uniform distribution of carbides so it takes and holds an excellent edge. The Kershaw 7800 Launch 6 automatic opening pocket knife also provides good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and toughness. Black DLC coating adds non-reflectivity and enhances performance.
Heretic Manticore-S
The Manticore S is the smallest offering of the Manticore Series. This knife is 100% USA made and assembled. With the same features as the Manticore X this knife is sure to be something inwhich you can trust as a backup to your EDC knife. With it's compact size of only 6.5" overall and weighing 1.7oz makes this easily carried by all.
