M390MK(Bohler-Uddeholm) - On 01/14/2023, Microtech in their instagram post announced that M390MK steel would be used in their knives. Where MK most likely stands for Microtech Knives. As per Microtech announcement, this is not a completely new steel, but a tweak on the existing M390 steel. The tweak itself can be interpreted rather broadly or narrowly, depending on who interprets it. It could be a more strict specification on contaminants, higher range of Carbon in the final product, but still within the original spec, or less likely, but plausible addition of a new micro-alloying element. As of this time, there isn't any specific information, and as such, it's safe to assume that despite those tweaks, M390MK is still within the original M390 steel specs.
