OTF Knives Descriptions

Microtech UTX-70

The Microtech UTX-70 is a “fun sized” double action OTF (out-the-front) automatic. Built 70% scale sized of the standard Ultratech, this cool little auto is a downright blast to own! Small enough to fit in a watch/5th pocket or a keychain, the UTX-70 also has a pocket clip for traditional carry options.

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.
