SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Microtech Stitch OTS Auto S/E Standard in Cerakote Red with black hardware is a bold, high-performance automatic knife built for heavy use and unapologetic style. Born from a powerhouse collaboration between Marfione Custom Knives® and Borka Blades, this production version of the Stitch delivers the aggressive performance of a custom piece with the rugged consistency of Microtech’s American manufacturing.
With an overall length of 8.50", this folder offers commanding presence and control in hand. The 3.75" spear point blade is crafted from premium stainless steel and coated in red Cerakote, providing excellent corrosion resistance and a hard-use finish that holds up to daily abuse. The blade geometry is optimized for piercing and slicing, while the large forward choil and pronounced thumb ramp offer unmatched control for fine work or power cuts.
The red Cerakote aluminum handle matches the blade for a seamless, all-red profile that’s set off by tactical black hardware. Machined from aircraft-grade alloy and knurled for enhanced grip, the handle feels secure and solid even in gloved or wet hands. The fit and finish are tight and deliberate, as you'd expect from Microtech, and the button-fired automatic mechanism launches the blade with authority at the press of a thumb.
With a weight of 6.38 ounces, the Stitch feels stout and durable without being cumbersome. The secure right-hand, tip-up carry clip keeps it ready for action, and the lanyard hole gives you alternate carry and retention options. While the clip is fixed for right-hand use only, the Stitch is built for serious users who want rock-solid deployment and a blade that doesn’t compromise.
Finished in all red with contrasting black hardware, this version of the Stitch stands out in any rotation—visually aggressive, mechanically smooth, and built to last. Whether you’re on duty, on the range, or building a serious collection, this OTS automatic is a standout example of Microtech’s no-nonsense approach to edged tools. Make a statement with the bold red Cerakote finish of the Microtech Stitch OTS Auto—aggressive, fast, and available now at SMKW.
