Microtech | Borka Blades Stitch Auto 169-10AP – Apocalyptic M390MK Plain Edge Spear-Pointed Wharncliffe Blade – Black 6061-T6 Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Handle Chassis – Apocalyptic Pocket Clip & Hardware – Push Button Automatic w/ No Safety | Made in USA | Sebastijan Berenji

Microtech – a leading brand in pocket knives, especially double-action out the fronts, as well as side opening automatics – was founded in Vero Beach, Florida in 1994 and now runs operations out of Pennsylvania and North Carolina. Being a 100% US-made brand, Microtech prides itself on using high quality materials combined with high level craftsmanship and attention to detail in order to provide pocket knives that make lifelong impressions. There is a reason that Microtech knives is one of the highest selling OTF knife brands in the world, as their incredibly smooth signature double-action OTF mechanism, high-grade steel and handle materials, use of their own proprietary internals and hardware, and large selection of handle/blade color combos and blade styles come together to create a wide array of impressive pocket knives that will suit all of your slicing needs, while likely having a model that suits your style. Whether you’re in the market for your first ever OTF knife, or are looking to add to your collection, you absolutely cannot go wrong with getting yourself a new Microtech.

To stray away from their typical lines of out the front pocket knives, Microtech offers an incredible powerhouse of a side-opening push button automatic in their Borka Blades Collaboration Stitch. The Stitch, sought after by many a Microtech fan, is a standard-full sized auto with a ton of personality. Defined by its rugged and distinctive spear-pointed Wharncliffe blade, the Stitch is as much an everyday carry user knife as it is a “safe-queen” collectable. Whatever you plan on doing with your Stitch, you can’t go wrong.

A hard push of the textured face-side push button will show you what all the hype is about, as the beefy blade comes firing out of the handle chassis with serious force. What you see then, while the blade is open, is an incredibly unique set of lines, ensuring that you have a knife like no other. A big hollow fuller exists on the top part of the blade to give it a bit more depth in design as well as to lessen the weight of the blade. Additionally, the spine of the blade has a bit of an upsweep as well as jimping towards the base, to allow for extra grip and leverage during use. Lastly, a perfectly jimped finger choil at the base of the blade gives you a spot for your pointer.

As with many of Microtechs knives, the Stitch auto is made with a 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum handle, making these guys much lighter than you may ever expect, and triangle-patterned texturing allow for extreme grip. A heavy-duty proprietary pivot and hardware add a bit of flair to the handle, while a semi-open backed construction leads to ease of cleaning. The backspacer is ribbed for comfort in your palm, and has a small lanyard hole that is inauspicious while practical. Finally, the Microtech – Borka Blades Stitch Auto is equipped with a strong tip-up pocket clip for easy daily carry.

This is the intro to the Borka | Microtech Stitch collaboration that has taken the knife world by storm. The Apocalyptic, plain edge blade is by far the most industrious of all. A great working blade of Bohler M390MK that'll keep going as long as you can. The Black textured Aluminum handle scales will asure a safe grip!
