The Heretic Manticore E SMKW Exclusive OTF Automatic in Cel Shaded Peanut Butter and Jelly is a bold twist on a proven performer. Built around a 3.19" CPM Magnacut stainless tool steel tanto blade, it delivers the strength, edge retention, and toughness expected from one of today’s most advanced steels. The tanto profile brings piercing power and dependable utility, while the out-the-front automatic action ensures rapid deployment with a simple push of the slide.

What sets this edition apart is its unmistakable look. The cel-shaded finish gives the blade and handles the striking appearance of a hand-drawn sketch leaping right off the page.
