Don't worry, I had a delica in zdp with the exact same wierd etching. In fact, my very first post on this forum about 18 months ago was asking if it was fake! Turns out, many other members had delicas with the exact same wonky lettering. I think the consensus was that there must have been a machine doing the etching in Seki that was off kilter for a while.

Yep! I thought I remembered somebody noticing it right as the V-Toku 2 sprints were being released. It took me a few minutes to find the thread....JuPaul wrote: ↑Mon Nov 30, 2020 11:17 amDon't worry, I had a delica in zdp with the exact same wierd etching.

Hi Makunochimaster,
It's hard to tell without having it in my hands, but I think I would trust those that have answered.

Re: Delica 4 fake?
Mr. Sal, thank Your for answer. As a result, perhaps this is original Delica?
P.S. Sorry, English is not my native language.
Thanx to All.

Re: Delica 4 fake?
To be honest I have never seen or handled a fake Delica . I have seen and handled other models but some details of the Delica in thread definitely raise an alarm in my opinion . Dan
