Just my opinion but I am not sure that I would trust someone who is openly selling fakes beside the legit product.

That actually looks like the real deal to me. I'd say you got a good one unless there are any problems with the lock or pivot action.

Hi there is no problem with the lock or pivot.
It is smooth as butter.
Thought it was real and I payed only 35 euro for it never used.
I think that is a great deal to me :)

You got a good deal there, the delica is one of spyderco's best designs, VG-10 gets very sharp and has great corrosion resistance too. You might look into getting a Spyderco "Sharpmaker" to keep it sharp. Once you get used to using really sharp knives it's hard to go back to using dull ones, may as well get a good sharpener of some sort if you don't have one already. :D
And if I didn't say so already, welcome to the forum.

I am not near the expert to say. If you enjoy the knife and it works well then it is probably legitimate. I just love steel for the fun of it. And welcome!!
