Heretic Hydra V4 Battleworn DLC Standard Black Chassis H407-16A

The Heretic Hydra V4 Battleworn DLC is a no-compromise automatic built for hard use and tactical confidence. Featuring a one-piece black aluminum chassis and Heretic’s signature OTF push-button deployment, this American-made powerhouse delivers precision, reliability, and aggressive styling in one streamlined package. Whether you’re a first responder, collector, or serious EDC user, the Hydra V4 stands out for its function-forward design and unapologetic performance.

At the heart of this blade is a 3.62" drop point made from CPM Magnacut, one of the toughest and most corrosion-resistant steels on the market today. The Battleworn DLC finish not only gives the blade a distressed, war-ready appearance—it adds another layer of durability with low-friction performance and enhanced wear resistance. It’s the kind of steel and finish combo built to handle tough environments without flinching.

The handle is machined from a single block of black aluminum, keeping the knife lightweight without sacrificing strength. Its clean, angular design sits comfortably in the hand, while the button lock and tip-down pocket clip ensure a secure carry and confident deployment. The push-button automatic action is fast, powerful, and completely mechanical—no nonsense, no fluff.

At 5.5" closed and 9.25" overall, the Hydra V4 hits the sweet spot for full-size performance without becoming cumbersome. It weighs in at 5.22 ounces, giving you just enough heft to feel solid in hand while still staying agile during use. The precision machining and tight tolerances throughout speak to Heretic’s deep attention to detail and commitment to quality.

Proudly made in the USA, this knife reflects the values of expert craftsmanship, innovative engineering, and field-tested design. It’s a knife you can trust, whether it’s clipped in your pocket or stored in your go-bag. When only the best will do, the Hydra V4 delivers in every way that counts. Order it today from SMKW!
