The Microtech Dirac OTF Automatic Knife Serrated Stonewash D/E Turquoise delivers compact automatic performance with bold color and the unmistakable precision Microtech builds into every knife. The Dirac series was designed with a clean, modern profile that stands apart from traditional out-the-front automatics. Instead of placing the actuator along the spine, Microtech positioned the thumb slide on the front face of the handle, giving you a more natural thumb position for quick, confident deployment and retraction.
This version features a 2.875" premium steel dagger blade with a rugged stonewash finish. Both edges are fully serrated, giving the blade aggressive cutting power that excels when slicing through rope, cordage, webbing, and other tough materials. The dagger profile provides excellent piercing ability while maintaining a balanced, symmetrical look that complements the knife’s streamlined design. The stonewash finish helps hide wear from real-world use and adds a durable working appearance.
The Dirac’s dual-action out-the-front mechanism deploys and retracts the blade using the same thumb-slide control. The action is fast, crisp, and dependable thanks to Microtech’s tight machining tolerances and attention to detail. Every push of the actuator delivers smooth, confident operation that automatic knife enthusiasts have come to expect from the brand.
The handle is crafted from anodized turquoise 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, creating a strong yet lightweight frame that stands out visually while remaining highly practical for everyday carry. The slim profile provides a comfortable, secure grip without unnecessary bulk. A stainless steel ambidextrous tip-down pocket clip allows easy carry for either hand, and the integrated glass breaker adds useful emergency functionality.
At 4.375" closed and weighing just 2.3 ounces, the Dirac is compact, lightweight, and ready for daily carry. Built with precision and pride, it’s another outstanding automatic knife proudly made in the USA.
