The listing states s35vn but the picture of the knife says 4034ss. What is the steel that comes with this knife?

It appears that the Micro Recon 1 blades with Stonewashed finish are made from the cheaper 4034SS, whereas the Micro Recon 1 blades with black Tuff-Ex coating are made from AUS-8Ạ. According to specs on Cold Steel website, NONE of the Micro Recon 1 blades are made from the better CPM-S35VN steel which is used for the larger-size 4-inch Recon 1 models.

Are the micro recons s35vn too?

Can I take the thumb stud off this knife and use it to replace the one I lost on my Ti-lite?

The thumb stud is removable so you could try it as a fit.
