Let's not forget that the Dirac works for left and right pocket carry. When I carry a gun I want an automatic knife in my left pocket to use to end a gun grab. So many righties do not think about left side carry.

I'd recommend using a small fixed blade, I use a kabar, just because if the knife blade on an OTF hits anything it can derail. I love OTFs, my favourite type of knife, but they have reliability concerns. If you do want one anyways though I'd recommend a single action! It'll stay out a lot better even if it misfires

I got the standard D/E tactical (blacked out) version because I personally like the smaller size. Thinner and slightly smaller than the UTX-85. Love the Dirac. Super smooth actuation. My only complaint is the double retention on the clip-pretty tough to get out quickly. Unfortunately it does not slide out very easily but it as you said, definitely stays in the pocket. The UTX-85 clip works a bit better offering more clearance.

A spring in my Dirac Delta broke when I deployed the blade during the fourth week after I bought it. Sent it back to microtech and they fixed it real quick but didn't say anything about the reason why or what happened. Sucks that it would break so fast, being something that I would hope I could trust to be reliable. When it came back it was drenched oil maybe if a spring is dry it's a problem.

I have carried the Dirac model daily 5 months. The handle design has little traction with no effective guard. If you are sweating or your hands get a little wet the knife is quite slippery including the deployment button. Closed, I imagine the Dirac could make a good bludgeon tool.

One of the best solutions I have found for all OTFs including this one is running strips of Talon Grips rubber grips on the sides. It still comes out of the pocket without issue, doesn't tear up pants, and adds a ton of traction to them. I've tried the knockoff stuff but real talon grips is the best blend of adhesive, traction, and not being abrasive. Doesn't leave any marks, have them on my cypher as well.

@eskee1
@eskee1 5 ай бұрын
How much personal defense do you plan on doing because even if you did have to wipe it after every attack is that really more of an inconvenience for you to prioritize after just having used it on someone enough to get their blood all on it? Seems like if you are that concerned about your safety you would think about what being so non chalant about stabbing someone and considering your pocketknifes well being over another human looks like to people who could consider that extreme/violent and find you as the main aggressor and lock you up for that where your safety would really be compromised and your knife wouldnt be there to malfunction on you in a personal issue with someone and if you did keep a shank and used it for self defense in there that would only be used against you furthering your problem from the stabbing incident which the police undoubtedly will sort out the details for you... Your knife although may be gunked up from blood and still in the open position and need a wipe but first they will need it to show to the jury so not wanting to wipe it after stabbing someone and calling it self defense will only (in reality) go against you. Be smart dont openly plan on stabbing someone with your knife or suggest it even as a joke as it could be used against you in the future as premeditatation if you ever do have to protect yourself with a blade one day.

@henryfeige8596 Funny you asked. Since I posted that, I've owned all three, and love them equally for their own reasons. The GT40, I love the size, razor sharp from factory, price, and that bearing/plate trigger. I've had 6 Glykons through my hands since then, fully customized and resold, and my daily carry is actually a Dirac Delta. I just really like the feel and symmetry of the Dirac Delta. If you put all three in front of me, and said "choose only one", I think I'd choose the Glykon. I really like that smooth trigger, customizability, and the beyonet blade style, but they are the priciest of the three.

Some, I have zero issue deploying the blade from the side trigger...some are much harder to do. I bought my first Ultratech at the bladeshow. I was actually surprised how small the ultratech model is (the full sized one).

For anyone looking at this in the future. The Ultratech is a dantier knife than the Delta, but in comparison to a combat troodon, scarab II or a recon 040 it is a slim dainty knife. it really depends on what you like. If you have ever tried a manticore X it is like that but a slightly slimmer and smaller handle. I like chunky knives but I have to say that this is better than the troodon for the money but nowhere near the scarab II. The scarab II is the second best OTF I have ever tried. First being a deadlock at a knife show as well. I would say that the troodon is a useless knife when it comes to options because the Recon 040 is a better big knife IMO and the Delta is a better combat oriented d/e knife.

So have you had a G&G Hawk Deadlock? To me that is the best OTF made. There is zero blade play, you can service the knife properly without breaking the warranty. They even send you the tool to remove the screws. Don't get me wrong I love my Microtech knives but the Deadlock is on another level.

Functionally, they're about the same. The tip on the Dirac is more delicate so it probably isn't as well suited for tougher tasks. I really just like the overall design and aesthetics more.

Actually the placement of the slider on the Ultratech has a lot more sense than those on Dirac and Infidel. After releasing the blade the thumb is exactly in the position to make a cut.
@metal_complex
@metal_complex 3 жыл бұрын
It's not the only optimal position for your thumb. There are lots of ways to hold a knife when you're cutting. "Optimal" positioning is just opinion and perspective.

@@metal_complex Usually You control blade with the thumb during the cut. I am trying to imagine more ergonomic way and frankly speaking just cannot think about any other way. But of course every day is a good day to learn something new. 😁

No. You would have to intentionally jam something into your pocket with constant force to deploy the blade. Even if you do that, the blade would go off track preventing the knife from stabbing you like in a movie.
