I can't say with certainty, as I don't follow the Civilian or Matriarch models closely, but I think a fake would be much more likely to be marked as VG-10 than ATS-55. My guess is that it's an authentic older model.

I doubt that this is fake. Most likely is real. This is an older model. 10+ years. Until few years ago there were almost no fakes, which look very close to real Spydercos except black UKPK
