Noted this on our local knife forum
knife on top is current model, bottom – older one
I'm not member at Microholics, so will any of you Microtech's fans comment on this - is this MT Amphibian revisited or what?

They have been re-released with D-2 steel. Pretty much the same otherwise, as far as I know.
 
I had one of the original ones, good knife. It had really fine thumb grooves on the top of the blade, similar to a Sebenza's, which was nice. Not too crazy about the deep, fat grooves on the new one, or the skateboard tape.
 
Looks like it has a glass breaker too. Also they removed a screw at the top of the handle, which if I remenber correctly, was to the stop pin on the older one. Could be on the other side now. I never had a problem with the rubber inserts on mine, but I do perfer the grip tape.
