Microtech Hera Black Frag - 3.08in Stonewash Dagger Plain

The Microtech Hera embodies precision and power in a sleek, compact design, tailored for those who demand the best in their everyday carry. This out-the-front automatic knife is a striking blend of form and function, engineered with high-quality materials and an innovative design to deliver performance that exceeds expectations.

At the core of the Hera is a 3.08-inch premium steel plain dagger blade, which offers a perfect balance of sharpness, strength, and durability. The stonewash finish on the blade not only enhances its resistance to wear and corrosion but also gives it a subtle, rugged aesthetic that is both stylish and functional. The blade is meticulously ground to provide a sharp, double-edged design that allows for versatile cutting tasks, from piercing to slicing, ensuring it's ready for any challenge.

The automatic thumb slide mechanism enables quick and effortless deployment of the blade, locking it securely in place. This thumb slide mechanism, characteristic of Microtech's out-the-front knives, ensures that the blade is instantly accessible when needed while maintaining a secure lock-up when closed. The reliability of the automatic mechanism is paired with the precision engineering of Microtech, making each deployment smooth and consistent.

The handle of the Hera is crafted from anodized black 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion. The handle’s 4.42-inch length provides a comfortable grip, while its milled frag pattern adds both a tactile feel and enhanced grip, ensuring maximum control in various conditions. The anodized finish not only adds a sleek appearance but also protects the handle from the elements, ensuring it remains in top condition regardless of use.

Weighing in at a mere 3.1 ounces, the Hera is exceptionally lightweight, making it ideal for everyday carry without sacrificing durability or functionality. Its slim profile, coupled with the stonewash stainless steel pocket clip, allows for discreet and comfortable tip-down carry, keeping it securely in place whether clipped to a pocket or a belt. The pocket clip is designed specifically for right-handed users but offers ease of access and retention for all.

The overall length of the Hera, when deployed, reaches 7.5 inches, providing a balanced and manageable size that is both compact for carry and substantial enough for effective use. The .1-inch thick blade strikes a perfect balance between cutting power and agility, while the out-the-front automatic design, coupled with a robust OTF lock type, guarantees the blade stays firmly in place during use, offering a secure and confident grip with every task.

Proudly made in the USA, the Microtech Hera embodies the brand's commitment to quality and craftsmanship. The knife is designed to perform at the highest level in any situation, whether for tactical applications, self-defense, or as a reliable tool for everyday use. It combines advanced materials, precision engineering, and innovative design to create a knife that stands out in the crowded field of out-the-front automatics. Every detail, from the premium steel blade to the anodized aluminum handle, has been carefully considered to ensure it not only meets but exceeds the demands of its user.
