Microtech M-Stitch RAM-LOK Black Slab Aluminum M390MK Stonewash Folding Knife (3.05" Blade) 169MRL-10

Microtech builds this M-Stitch on black slab aluminum with a stonewashed M390MK blade. The RAM-LOK bar lock works under either thumb, on a compact folder with a choil cut deep enough to take four fingers.

• Black Slab Aluminum Scales - The scales are left flat and unmilled, black aluminum with the RAM-LOK buttons set into either side. Steel liners sit behind them, and standard Torx hardware runs the whole knife, so you can strip it and put it back together yourself.
• Stonewash M390MK Blade - M390MK is a high-carbide stainless that holds an edge a long time and resists rust, and the grind runs thin behind the edge so it slices instead of wedging. The point is fine enough for detail work. Stonewash keeps scuffs from standing out.
• RAM-LOK Bar Lock & Thumb Hole - Microtech built their own crossbar system for it, with the X buttons set into both sides so either hand runs the knife. The thumb hole opens the blade in one smooth motion and the lock catches it there. Standard Torx hardware throughout.
• Deep Finger Choil & Jimped Thumb Ramp - The choil is cut deep enough for a full four-finger grip on a handle this short, and the jimping gives your thumb somewhere to lean. A titanium backspacer runs between the scales, and the deep-carry clip reverses for either side.

The Microtech M-Stitch RAM-LOK

The Microtech M-Stitch RAM-LOK shrinks the Stitch, a Borka Blades collaboration, to a size you can close inside one hand. Shrinking a folder normally costs you the grip, so this one spends its effort there instead, with a deep finger choil and a jimped thumb ramp that catch the hand and hold all four fingers on the handle. The blade keeps the Stitch profile, thin behind the edge and drawn fine at the point for close work. Microtech builds it in the USA around their own RAM-LOK bar lock, with the X buttons falling under either thumb.
