The Heretic Knives Manticore X Bowie OTF Knife Automatic is a full-size out-the-front powerhouse, built for speed, reliability, and visual impact. This edition pairs a CPM Magnacut Bowie blade with a deep black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating, giving it exceptional edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion protection—perfect for both field use and daily carry.

The handle is machined from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum in a vivid Breakthrough Turquoise anodized finish and features Heretic’s signature Grenade Grip texture, offering a secure, non-slip hold without sacrificing comfort. Its double-action OTF mechanism deploys and retracts the blade smoothly with a simple thumb-slide, delivering fast, controlled performance in either direction.

Every detail of the Manticore X reflects Heretic’s American craftsmanship—from the integrated glass breaker and deep-carry pocket clip to the precision-tuned internal mechanism. At over 9 inches overall, the Manticore X offers a perfect balance of reach and control, making it one of Heretic’s most capable and collectible out-the-front automatics.
