CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech Glykon is a cutting-edge out-the-front (OTF) automatic knife, engineered for precision, reliability, and unmatched versatility. Named after the Roman snake god, the Glykon is the first Microtech model to feature a tri-sided thumb slide, allowing for deployment and retraction from either side of the handle or the large primary slide along the spine. This innovative design ensures seamless operation for both left- and right-handed users, making it a top choice for those who demand adaptability in their gear.
Built for performance, the Glykon boasts a 3.75-inch tanto blade crafted from premium M390 stainless steel. The black-coated finish enhances durability and reduces glare, while the razor-sharp edges provide exceptional cutting power. Its dual-action automatic mechanism delivers swift, one-handed deployment and secure lockup, ensuring reliability in high-stakes situations. Inside, the internal components are fortified with a Nickel Boron coating, reducing friction and wear for a consistently smooth action over time.
The handle is a perfect blend of strength and style, constructed from orange anodized 6061-T6 aluminum and reinforced with bead-blasted titanium overlays. This rugged combination not only enhances the knife’s durability but also provides a striking visual contrast. The ergonomic design ensures a secure grip, whether in everyday carry or tactical applications. A reversible tip-down titanium pocket clip offers versatile carry options, while the integrated lanyard hole provides additional attachment choices.
At 5.25 inches closed and an overall length of 9 inches, the Glykon delivers a substantial feel without unnecessary bulk. Weighing 5.23 ounces, it balances heft and maneuverability, making it an ideal companion for professionals, collectors, and serious knife enthusiasts. Like all Microtech knives, the Glykon is proudly made in the USA, a testament to superior craftsmanship and uncompromising quality.
