Spyderco Forums

Compared to mine, there's a lot that looks right, and a few things that aren't. A couple things I see could be variables in manufacturing, but there's a couple I don't think so. For this reason, I'm suspicious of it. Hello, could you please indicate which details of my knife make you doubt? Thanks

Comparing your pictures to my same Para 3 model I’d say it’s genuine. Do you suspect it’s fake?

Hello, I have a little doubt, because I did not buy from an authorized dealer, but on the secondary market.

Where did you buy it?

Hello, I bought it from the aftermarket, not from an official store. Therefore, there are doubts.

Throw a cigarette paper in the air and if you don't cut it in 2 it's fake

Thanks :)

As far as I can tell, it is authentic.

Is there something about the knife that makes you think it could be a fake?

Hello. My doubts arose after I saw sales on aliexpress. Thank you for your reply

I am not a Para 3 expert at all, so all I can do to help is to bump your thread, since I see you got not replies so far. (I can see nothing suspicious on your knife, but as said, I don´t know a lot about this model) I guess you should also post your request once more in this sub-forum https://forum...

Milling/Drilling the remnants out is how I would do it. But I have seen a good welder tig what amounts to small "T" handle onto the remnant and then unscrew it.

Good day. Interesting idea. Thank you

Thank you all for the warm welcome in this forum and for your recommendations. Yes, it will be a difficult task for me. First, I will carefully prepare, then I will try or look for specialists.

Good afternoon, Sal. Advise how to unscrew the cut screws ?. I think they are on the thread lock, so it is not so easy to unscrew.
