Microtech® Cypher II – Precision, Power, and Innovation
The Microtech Cypher II is a masterclass in modern automatic knife engineering, featuring a Böhler M390MK Wharncliffe blade with a rugged apocalyptic finish and a black anodized aluminum handle for a sleek, tactical look.
Its X-button thumb slide leverages the dual-spring Dual-Fuel Drivetrain™ system, delivering ultra-smooth deployment and retraction. The enhanced thumb slide channel includes precision milling designed to break apart lint and debris—Microtech's own "Crud Kutter" innovation—making this knife exceptionally reliable in any environment.
The minimalist design includes hidden hardware on the handle, preserving a clean aesthetic. A reversible titanium pocket clip with a silica carbide ball and an integrated glass breaker round out this high-performance, EDC-ready OTF.
