CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech Cypher Gen II pushes the limits of high-performance automatic knives with a lean, aggressive frame and precision engineering throughout. Built for fast, controlled deployment and reliable function under pressure, this out-the-front auto features a 4-inch satin-finished dagger blade crafted from Microtech’s proprietary Böhler M390MK steel. Developed in collaboration with Böhler, this upgraded alloy offers improved edge retention and corrosion resistance over standard M390, giving you long-term cutting performance you can count on.
The dual-edge dagger comes razor sharp and well-balanced, with clean satin flats and grinds that highlight its symmetry and purpose. The blade fires smoothly and locks out solid, driven by a top-mounted thumb slide that’s intuitive and quick to operate. The aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum handles are anodized a deep, vivid blue with precision milling for grip and control. Slim and lightweight, the handle feels fast in the hand but solid enough to take serious use.
Rounding out the package are quality-of-life upgrades that make this Gen II model a modern standout. The knife features reinforced Torx hardware, a glass breaker for emergency use, and an ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip for flexible carry options. Whether you’re using it on duty or as a reliable daily companion, the Cypher’s clean lines, premium materials, and battle-proven design deliver.
Proudly made in the USA, the Cypher Gen II stands as one of Microtech’s finest evolutions—leaner, faster, and sharper in every way.
