The Microtech Dirac Out-the-Front Automatic Knife delivers a sleek, lightweight design backed by the rugged performance you’d expect from one of the most respected names in the industry. Purpose-built for everyday carry, the Dirac combines refined engineering with practical durability, giving you a knife that’s as dependable as it is easy to carry.
At its core is a 2.92" premium steel double-edged dagger blade, finished in a rugged stonewash that’s made to handle real use. This finish helps conceal wear while enhancing corrosion resistance, keeping the blade looking sharp even after repeated tasks. The dagger profile offers excellent piercing capability and balanced cutting performance, making it a versatile option for a wide range of everyday needs. It’s a blade that doesn’t just look good—it’s built to work.
The Dirac stands apart with its out-the-front automatic action, driven by a smooth and reliable thumb slide. Unlike traditional OTF designs, the slide is positioned on the face of the handle, giving you a more natural and ergonomic motion during deployment and retraction. The action is crisp and controlled, and the blade locks up solidly thanks to the internal cover slide mechanism, ensuring confidence every time you put it to use.
The handle is constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in an OD green anodized mil-spec hard coat, offering a durable yet lightweight frame that’s built for daily carry. Its slim, contoured profile fits comfortably in hand while maintaining a low footprint in your pocket. A 301 stainless steel tip-down pocket clip keeps the knife secure and accessible, while the integrated glass breaker adds an extra layer of utility when it matters most.
Measuring 4.33" closed and weighing just 2.2 ounces, the Dirac is designed to disappear in your pocket until it’s needed. Designed by Tony Marfione and proudly made in the USA, it reflects a commitment to quality, innovation, and performance that’s hard to match.
