Abstract
A machine knitting tool and in particular a machine knitting needle has a shank extending in the longitudinal direction. The machine knitting tool has a stitch-forming portion directly adjacently to a front end and a drive portion directly adjacently to a rear end. At least in the drive portion, an underside of the shank does not have any indentations or recesses and extends along a plane. The shank in the drive portion forms at least one rib portion with a rib height, which is at most 1.1 mm. In addition, the shank in the drive portion forms at least one support elevation, which extends in the height direction beyond the rib height of the at least one rib portion and has an elevation height at its point of maximum height.
