SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Heretic Knives Medusa Auto Recurve in Bronze and Blood Red Carbon is a no-compromise automatic built for those who demand both performance and edge. This knife boasts a 3.625-inch recurve blade made from premium CPM MagnaCut steel, finished in a deep black DLC coating for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The recurve profile delivers devastating slicing power with a tip that still punches through with authority—ideal for tactical roles, daily carry, or defensive readiness. With Heretic’s signature side-opening automatic action, deployment is fast, deliberate, and undeniably smooth.
The handle combines titanium and blood red marbled carbon fiber scales, delivering a striking mix of elegance and aggression. The bronze anodized titanium accents, including the backspacer and hardware, bring just the right amount of contrast and class without sacrificing grit. The handle contours provide a solid grip while maintaining a sleek, pocket-friendly profile. A deep-carry, reversible pocket clip allows discreet right- or left-handed carry, and the jimped spine gives your thumb extra control when it matters most.
Every detail of the Medusa Auto reflects Heretic’s dedication to precision American craftsmanship. From the clean lock-up to the bold visual aesthetic, this is a blade built for those who appreciate quality and aren't afraid to carry it.
