Heretic built it on their glass packed polymer chassis, which is the platform that lets them put American manufacturing and MagnaCut into a knife at this price rather than twice it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Mini Pariah Auto, Single Edge Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: H054-2A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Steel: CPM MagnaCut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Finish: Stonewash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChassis: Glass packed polymer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternals: All machined components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforcement: Stainless steel plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeployment: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePocket Clip: Ambidextrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: Heretic lifetime warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: Made in USA (Melbourne, Florida)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGlass Packed Polymer, and Why It Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlass packed polymer is the same idea behind the frame on a SIG or a Glock. Chopped glass fiber is mixed into the polymer before it is molded, which makes the finished part far stiffer and more dimensionally stable than plain plastic while staying light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a knife that means Heretic can hold tight tolerances on a chassis that costs a fraction of machined aluminum or titanium. That is the entire reason this knife is $189 instead of $400. You are not getting less knife. You are getting the same internals in a housing that costs less to make.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat Is Underneath\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chassis is polymer, but the parts that do the work are not. Every internal component is machined, and stainless steel plates are set into the chassis for strength and rigidity where the knife needs it. This is not a budget build wearing a Heretic label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMagnaCut\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagnaCut gives you edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance without trading any of the three. Finding it on a sub $200 automatic is not normal, and it is the spec that makes this knife an easy recommendation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAn Automatic, Still\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeretic is known for out the front autos, and the Mini Pariah Auto is a reminder they are still in that business. Worth checking your state and local law before you order, since automatic knives are restricted in some places.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade in Florida\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeretic designs, engineers, and assembles every knife in house at their Melbourne, Florida facility, and backs all of it with a lifetime warranty.
