Compact size. Forward-thinking design. Built for everyday carry.

The Microtech Dirac stands apart in the OTF lineup with its forward-mounted switch, giving it a unique feel and improved ergonomics compared to traditional designs.

This version features a 3.0” double edge dagger blade in an Apocalyptic finish, paired with an emerald green aluminum handle that adds a bold, refined look to a compact platform.

Forward Switch Design

The Dirac’s defining feature is its forward-mounted actuator.

• Naturally positioned for thumb use

• Improves control during deployment

• Sets it apart from traditional OTF layouts

It’s a subtle change that makes a noticeable difference in hand.

Compact OTF Platform

The Dirac is built for easy carry.

• 3.0” blade for everyday usability

• Shorter handle for a compact footprint

• Lightweight design that disappears in the pocket

It’s a great balance between size and capability.

Apocalyptic Finish

The Apocalyptic finish gives the blade a worn-in appearance right out of the box.

• Helps hide wear over time

• Reduces glare

• Adds a rugged, broken-in look

Double Edge Blade

The double edge dagger blade offers:

• Symmetrical design

• Clean piercing geometry

• A distinct, balanced look

Automatic OTF Action

The double-action OTF system allows for:

• Fast deployment

• Quick retraction

• One-handed operation

It’s built for consistency and ease of use.

Made in the USA

Microtech manufactures the Dirac in the USA, maintaining tight control over machining, assembly, and quality.

Why This One Stands Out

The Dirac brings something different to Microtech’s OTF lineup.

The forward switch, compact size, and clean design make it one of the most user-friendly automatic knives they produce.

Add in the emerald green handle and Apocalyptic blade, and you get a knife that stands out without sacrificing function.
