The Microtech Dirac brings a distinctive twist to the double-action OTF automatic, combining a compact everyday-carry profile with Microtech's precision-focused engineering. As the company's first dual-action OTF to feature a cover firing slider, the Dirac offers a unique operating experience while maintaining the fast, practical functionality Microtech enthusiasts expect. Finished entirely in Weathered Crimson, this compact automatic makes a bold statement without sacrificing everyday usability.
The 2.92-inch double-edge blade features plain edges on both sides, providing a clean, versatile cutting surface for everyday utility tasks. The crimson blade and handle create a cohesive monochromatic appearance, while the Weathered finish gives the knife a rugged, broken-in character. It's a distinctive look that sets this Dirac apart from more traditional OTF designs.
Microtech designed the Dirac with an updated ergonomic chassis featuring curved lines inspired by the HALO. This streamlined shape gives the handle a comfortable feel in hand while providing a noticeably different profile from other Microtech OTF models. The compact dimensions make the Dirac particularly well suited for everyday carry, offering useful cutting capability without the bulk of a larger automatic.
The cover firing slider is one of the Dirac's defining features. Designed to protect the firing mechanism while providing intuitive operation, the covered slider gives the knife a distinctive appearance and functional advantage. The double-action mechanism allows the blade to deploy and retract from the front of the handle, giving you convenient one-handed operation when needed.
Microtech's ultra-high-tolerance construction continues throughout the design. Proprietary hardware and an innovative internal mechanism contribute to the Dirac's refined operation, while the integrated glass breaker adds useful emergency functionality to the compact platform.
Measuring 7.25 inches overall and weighing just 2.37 ounces, the Dirac hits a sweet spot for everyday carry. Its 2.92-inch blade provides a practical cutting platform, while the lightweight construction makes it easy to carry throughout the day. The compact size also makes the Dirac an excellent choice for anyone who prefers an OTF that won't dominate their pocket.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Dirac combines compact dimensions, distinctive ergonomics, a covered firing slider, and precision engineering in one capable automatic. With its Weathered Crimson finish and plain double-edge blade, it's a bold take on a refined everyday OTF.
