Heretic Medusa Automatic Knife DLC Elmax Tanto/Black Snakeskin Carbon Fiber HMBFDT

The Heretic Medusa Automatic Knife in Damascus Tanto and Black Snakeskin Carbon Fiber is built for those who expect performance without compromise. This out-the-side automatic combines rugged materials, refined engineering, and bold aesthetics into a compact, battle-ready package. At its core is a 3" tanto blade crafted from premium Damascus-patterned Elmax steel, known for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and all-around durability. The blade wears a striking two-tone DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating that boosts both toughness and stealth while delivering a sharp, aggressive profile ideal for piercing and slicing tasks.

With a push of the button, the Medusa snaps open with authority. The push-button deployment is fast, reliable, and backed by a strong lock that keeps the blade secure during use. The handle is made from lightweight black snakeskin carbon fiber, offering a high-strength build with a uniquely textured, non-slip grip. The slim, ergonomic profile ensures excellent in-hand comfort, making this knife easy to control under pressure.

A tip-up DLC-coated stainless steel pocket clip with a ceramic glider ball provides low-friction retention and smooth pocket transition, while a lanyard hole gives added versatility for carry and deployment options. At just 4.5" closed and 4.3 ounces, the Medusa is a streamlined companion that doesn't cut corners on strength or style. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Heretic Knives’ commitment to precision craftsmanship and mission-ready performance.
