To the best of my knowledge this is a result of different production years, 2015 to 2016. They were both purchased from an authorized Microtech dealer.
 
I’m not trying to deceive anyone. If you think they are a clone then I won’t argue with you. To the best of my knowledge these are authentic, I inherited them from my father and was with him at the time of purchase from the authorized dealer in Delray. If they sold him a clone, which I doubt, then there is that possibility. Like I said from the best of my knowledge and the research I’ve done they are the real thing.

These fakes aren’t bad. The hardware is a dead giveaway to me. Thanks for looking out for people!

Yeah, I have a Siphon right in front of me which uses the same hardware and it’s completely different. The fake ones are known for using perfect triangle heads, but MT screws have a belly between the three points.

Interesting, thanks for your help. Looking more closely at the screws it appears they are not perfect triangles and also have the belly you mention...

There’s a video on YouTube by Microtech that tells you what to look for in a fake or clone. I would suggest watching that and you will see why we know these are not genuine Microtechs.
 
That black one looks like it has two different size screws in the picture you posted.

Sometimes it is difficult to get a good shot of the hardware. When he said the serial number font was different, he did not mean between knives. The serial numbers on the charge bars do not match the font of the other numbers on the same charge bar. I have only seen that on fakes, but someone please chime in if I'm mistaken.

Almost every time a Halo was claimed to be inherited from a friend or father it has been fake.
