The Microtech Dirac OTF Automatic Knife Partially Serrated Stonewash D/E Black delivers sleek automatic performance in a compact, purpose-built design that’s ready for serious everyday carry. Microtech engineered the Dirac series with a distinctive modern profile that separates it from traditional out-the-front automatics. Instead of placing the actuator along the spine, the thumb slide sits on the front face of the handle, creating a more natural and comfortable position for rapid blade deployment and retraction.
This version is equipped with a 2.875" premium steel dagger blade with a rugged stonewash finish. One edge features partial serrations that bite aggressively into rope, cordage, and fibrous materials, while the remaining plain edge provides clean slicing control for everyday cutting tasks. The stonewash finish reduces visible wear from use and enhances the knife’s understated tactical appearance.
Microtech’s dual-action OTF mechanism sends the blade out and retracts it smoothly using the same thumb-slide control. The action is crisp, fast, and dependable, reflecting the tight tolerances and precision machining that have made Microtech one of the most respected automatic knife makers in the world.
The handle is crafted from anodized black 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, giving the knife excellent durability without unnecessary weight. Its streamlined construction offers a secure, comfortable grip while maintaining a slim pocket-friendly profile. A stainless steel ambidextrous tip-down pocket clip allows convenient carry for either hand, and the integrated glass breaker adds an extra level of emergency utility.
Measuring 4.375" closed and weighing just 2.3 ounces, the Dirac provides impressive cutting capability in a lightweight package that disappears easily into your pocket. Every detail reflects Microtech’s commitment to precision engineering and American craftsmanship, and it’s proudly made in the USA.
