While reporting fakes here and to eBay gives us a warm fuzzy feeling, eBay cannot do anything unless the owner of the trademark, copyright, or patent that is being infringed has registered with their VeRO (Verified Rights Owner) program and is the party...

Can you guys be able to tell me if this Police SS is a fake or not. I got from a pawn shop for 65$. It felt good at first, then I started looking at it closer and it does appear to be a counterfeit. There are some small things that are off. If is a...

Hey guys
I want to buy this second hand Sage 2. Can you confirm it's not a fake? Seller want about $170 for it. Is it a good price? A little used. The seller is the second owner.

I picked up this pretty odd knife from ebay and I'm pretty sure it's a fake, but I was wondering what the community thought as well. It has the same dimensions and markings as a para 2. But doesn't have any jimping and has a liner lock instead of a...
I just picked up one of these Glow In the Dark Delica 4's from not an authorized dealer, wish I would have checked the list first) and can't help but wonder (is it fake??) as something seemed too good to be true that they would even have stock of these...

Just saw a post on Reddit with a Spyderco knife. Turned out it says designed and manufactured by Cimo but it's clearly a Spyderco copy.
They also have a Brazilian website selling clearly Spyderco knives with a different brand.
New here, not an expert and the owner of only 2 spydercos. I am based in Poland for a few weeks and have been browsing olx.pl.
There seem to be a few sellers of counterfeit knifes.
I do not speak polish so I either asked my wife or...
I only basically own spyderco knives but it is interesting to watch the thin slicey lightweight frn magnacut hogue deka sell out around the world. There is a lesson to be learnt here I think. There is a market for lightweight thin and slicey especially in...
I stumbled across outletspyderco.com but the old adage if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is rang true - Edit, after digging a little more I see this is indeed a fake site.
Is it safe to say, in general, if the company is not listed on the...

Hello!
I purchased two of the same model para 2’s (15v sprint run) from different vendors. The made in USA text on them is different in width. One is 18.5mm and one is 25.5mm. Is one of these fake or are there typically slight variations in labels?...

Sorry in advance...
This is my first post and my first Spyderco... I purchased on Amazon before realizing the issues with fakes. It came from Onkata from what I can tell and I saw in another post that they may be a legit dealer? I paid $138 plus tax....
Has anyone heard of the Hundred Pacer being cloned? I ask because when I tried to replace the pivot screws with aftermarket screws, they were nowhere near a fit. Both the knife and the screws came from reputable secondary-market sellers.

Hi all,
my previous post about these knives was made before I contacted the seller... who insists that these knives were ordered as an exclusive straight from Spyderco.
I smell some probable BS, but would love to have confirmation one way or the...
Howdy folks !
So, I got this presumably old Military from a seller. It arrived today, and I need help confirming whether it is or is not a genuine item.
I'm covered if it's not ;)
I can't use the forum's search function to look for bestfolderknife.com because the search function doesn't understand it's all one word, and it thinks the words are too common to search for. So maybe this has been discussed already. That said:
Seller has good feedback, but AFAIK there hasn't been a cherry red variant of either model, no red scales on S45VN either...
The M390 and 4V knives had translucent G10.
These aren't being sold at bargain (counterfeit) prices and they're listed as new...
I've been collecting knives since COVID hit, and this hobby has been very therapeutic for me. Anyways, I was doing some research on amazon about counterfeits and etc, I came across this WAY-TOO-GOOD to be true...
I contacted this seller the first time I saw this fake listed. She pulled it once, then listed it again with a lame may be a replica disclaimer. This is at least the second one she has listed, so she must have bought several. She also has a stainless fake...
I am trying to find out the origin of a Shaman that is posted in a facebook group. It appears to be modded (a lot). My concern is that I have never seen a DLC coated rex 45 Shaman blade. The seller sent me this photo- something looks off. Someone's...

First time poster from long time owner. I recently lost my old Delica 4 in a large wood pile and have not recovered it as of yet. It was purchased about 4 or 5 years ago from a reputable online vendor. I decided to try my luck on Amazon and purchased an...

I was on youtube and seen this in a video so I went looking for one to see what it was. I actually found one on ebay with the spyderhole blurred out. It looks like a Stretch with an Axis lock. I'm sure I'm just late to the party but it blows me away they...
Hi,
Recently I've been turning myself towards pretty well used Spydercos, in order to give them a new life at my side.
Someone proposed to sell me a ZDP Stretch for around 50 bucks.
He made pictures and I didn't think much of it except that the...
Does the size of the triangular opening on the fangs of the spider logo indicate a fake? I saw some posts and a YouTube video about spotting fake spydercos claiming this. When I checked out my spyderco boxes I noticed 2 of the ones I have look like the...

I've taken some close up photos of a Squeak I've just received. Spyderco customer services haven' t been able to confirm fake or otherwise (but will if I post the knife to the USA - I'm in the UK). The logo on the knife has a well define triangle where...
Just saw this, somebody linked it on Reddit to ask if it might be a scam. $82 for a Manix 2 XL and the T&C page has a copypasta ramble about dyelots and red napkins, what could go wrong?
