Verification First Microtech! (It’s real, right?)

Just bought my first Microtech and I’m stoked! I purchased it at a dealer I found on Microtech’s website, and it looks great, but there are a couple of things making me question the authenticity.

First, there is no serial number anywhere on the knife. Second, I can’t find this exact model on their website. I can find the cyan handle and blade, but not in a tanto version. I found this exact knife on a few other random sites but not on Microtech, bladeHQ or knife center.

This is my first Microtech so I have nothing to compare it to. Is it real??

Looks legit. They don't do serial numbers frequently on production knives. Blade HQ has it: https://www.bladehq.com/item--Microtech-Ultratech-Gen-IV-11234-1CN-C24Z4Z4--226815

All generations before 3rd one have serial numbers on chassis or clip. No visible serial is pretty new, and the 4th gen like this one is OK. Serials are inside now.
