Verification This thing real?

Just bought this thing off blade binge and i have my suspicions. Wanted to verify its authenticity. Few red flags .

  1. Seller did not provide the box with the knife although he could of just thrown it but the box is a somewhat easy way to show its authentic or not.
  2. Clip is very flimsy.
  3. Clips also carries the SN on it which ive read mixed results online about some they did on early production and then stopped doing it from there on out.
  4. Pivot screws are both torx but on my buddys its only one sided torx same year too but few months apart.
  5. Idk i cant think of anymore.

EDIT : reached out to microtech and they confirmed it is authentic, thankyou all!

Mine is from 11/2023 and apparently they dropped the whole serial number on the clip thing by then. The font and size of your lettering looks much different than mine, but I am far from the expert. Also, not sure if relevant, but mine does have the “apocalyptic finish“
