The Microtech Stitch Customized by Todd Smith is a highly customized version of one of Microtech’s most recognizable Borka Blades collaboration designs. This collector-grade Stitch began as a Microtech Stitch Signature Series and was customized by Todd Smith of GettinEdgyEDC, one of the most talked-about knife customizers in the American EDC scene today.
Todd engraved the blade, acid etched the blade, acid etched the stainless steel pocket clip, and gave the knife a dramatic custom presentation. The result is a bold, one-off Microtech Stitch with ornate handle engraving, a warm etched blade finish, a customized clip, and the aggressive profile that made the Stitch a standout automatic knife platform.
Microtech Stitch Customized by Todd Smith
The Microtech Stitch Customized by Todd Smith keeps the hard-use foundation of the factory Stitch while adding a much more individual collector identity. The broad M390 blade has been engraved and acid etched, giving the blade a layered, custom-aged appearance. The handle carries detailed scrollwork-style engraving with a pink, bronze, and darkened finish that shifts depending on the light.
The clip side is equally strong. Todd Smith acid etched the stainless steel clip, tying it visually to the blade and the overall finish package. The handle work, clip treatment, blade etching, and Microtech hardware all come together in a way that feels aggressive, detailed, and distinctly custom.
Borka Blades Design with Custom EDC Art Appeal
The Microtech Stitch is known for its wide blade profile, oversized finger choil, pronounced thumb ramp, push-button automatic action, and compact but powerful handle shape. As a Microtech and Borka Blades collaboration, the Stitch already has strong collector demand. This customized example takes that foundation further with Todd Smith’s engraving and acid etch work.
For collectors who follow Microtech, Borka Blades, customized production knives, and high-end American EDC art pieces, this Stitch offers something beyond a standard production variant. It is a customized Microtech automatic with strong visual impact, premium materials, and a unique GettinEdgyEDC finish package.
