The Microtech Dirac OTF Auto represents a fresh evolution in Microtech's out-the-front lineup, blending innovative engineering with a sleek, highly refined everyday-carry profile. As Microtech's first dual-action OTF to feature a cover firing slider, the Dirac delivers a distinctive feel and operation that sets it apart from the rest of the pack. Compact, lightweight, and exceptionally fast, it's built for users who appreciate premium performance in a streamlined package.
At the center of the Dirac is a 2.875" double-edge blade finished in a striking Burnt Bronze coating. The dagger-style profile offers excellent piercing capability and symmetrical cutting performance, while the rich bronze finish adds a rugged appearance that contrasts beautifully with the handle. Beyond its visual appeal, the coated blade helps reduce glare and enhances the knife's tactical character, creating a look that's equally at home in a collection or daily carry rotation.
One of the most unique aspects of the Dirac is its cover-mounted firing slider. Positioned on the face of the handle rather than along the side, the actuator provides a natural thumb path and intuitive operation. The dual-action mechanism allows the blade to deploy and retract with the same control, delivering the fast, authoritative action that Microtech OTF knives are known for. Every deployment showcases the precision engineering and ultra-tight tolerances that have become synonymous with the Microtech name.
The ergonomic chassis features flowing curves inspired by the legendary HALO series, creating a more contoured feel in hand than many traditional OTF designs. Finished in an elegant champagne tone, the aluminum handle delivers a sophisticated appearance while maintaining the lightweight strength needed for everyday use. The combination of the champagne handle and Burnt Bronze blade gives the Dirac a refined, upscale look that stands out without being overly flashy.
Microtech's commitment to quality is evident throughout the knife. Proprietary hardware, an innovative internal mechanism, and an integrated glass breaker all contribute to the Dirac's durability and functionality. Every component is designed and manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring reliable performance when it matters most.
Measuring 7.25" overall and weighing just 2.30 ounces, the Dirac strikes an ideal balance between carry comfort and cutting capability. Its slim profile disappears easily into a pocket while remaining ready for quick deployment whenever needed.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Dirac combines cutting-edge OTF technology, premium craftsmanship, and distinctive styling into a compact automatic knife built for serious everyday carry.
