The Microtech Dirac OTF Automatic stands out with a streamlined, modern profile and a distinctive front-mounted thumb slide that sets it apart from traditional out-the-front designs. Built for fast, reliable deployment and compact everyday carry, it delivers Microtech’s signature precision engineering in a sleek, purpose-driven package.
At the core is a 2.875" dagger blade crafted from premium M390MK stainless steel, finished in Moss Green Cerakote for enhanced durability and reduced glare. The double-edged profile offers balanced cutting performance in a compact format, while M390MK steel provides exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance for dependable use over time.
The Dirac operates as a dual-action OTF automatic, using a front-positioned thumb slide to deploy and retract the blade with speed and control. The mechanism is tuned for smooth, consistent operation, delivering crisp engagement and secure lockup with each cycle. Its unique control placement allows for intuitive handling and a compact overall design.
Moss Green Cerakote 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum forms the handle, offering a strong yet lightweight foundation built for everyday carry. The Cerakote finish adds durability and a cohesive tactical appearance while helping resist wear in demanding conditions. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip ensures flexible carry options, and an integrated glass breaker adds emergency utility without adding bulk. At 4.375" closed and weighing just 2.3 ounces, the Dirac remains highly pocketable while retaining full automatic capability.
Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Dirac reflects the company’s commitment to innovation, precision machining, and reliable performance in a compact OTF platform designed for real-world use.
