£662.95This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Glykon D/E Bayonet Black Aluminium / Apocalyptic Titanium, Apocalyptic is a large OTF (Out The Front) automatic knife from the Glykon series. The first automatic with a Tri-Sided button, allowing complete ambidextrous operation, equipped with a hell of a fast mechanism that extends the razor-sharp blade. 100% made and assembled in the USA. Designed by Anthony and Sean Marfione of Microtech Knives.
Glykon OTF Line - the first automatic with a Tri-Sided button, allowing complete ambidextrous operation. The result of many hours of designing, constructing, testing, tweaking and repeating the process, bringing the gold standard in OTF automatic knives. With a modified Bayonet blade, a patent-pending button on three sides of the knife and a reversible pocket clip, the Glykon may just be the most user-friendly knife Microtech has produced to date.
Blade - machine ground D/E (Double Edge Bayonet) type, sharpened on both sides. Effectively aged with an Apocalyptic finish. The blade was derived with a high flat grind (Flat Grind), providing excellent cutting properties. As a result, the knife has excellent piercing qualities while maintaining its durability. The long, centrally located grain further strengthens the blade. The powerful mechanism of extending/retracting the blade by means of three moled stepped Thumb Slides located on both sides and on the back of the Handle requires, for safety, the application of a specific force to overcome the resistance of the spring. The method of opening ensures trouble-free opening for both right and left-handed people.
Handle - made with excellent precision in 3D technology on CNC milling machines, the lower part is made of black anodized 6061-T6 aluminium, and the upper part is made of aged Apocalyptic titanium finish. The surface texture of the Handle makes the knife non-slip in the hand during use. There are notches (jimping) on the back and bottom of the handle for a more secure grip. The ergonomic profile and the milled two-position (right/left) solid deep-carry clip allow the knife to be carried discreetly in the pocket, in tip-down (blade tip down) position. The clip bears the Microtech logo, serial number and production date.
