A place to list and reference all Spyderco counterfeits, clones, and replicas that are found. Anything that isn't a legitimate Spyderco fits in this area.

Important if you dont have the exact shape in your eyes, clip is different than original one and the bug on the handle is not laser cut out, only painted or engraved. Comes with a red/black Spydie box, which seems to be different, no drawer style box. As far I can tell from the pics. Wasnt able to track down the producer.

They often show a picture of the real Spyderco rather than the fake, but the real Volpe has an FFG blade so this is definitely the picture of a very "good" copy.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Yup, thats true, but it didnt came to my mind, and I guess a lot of people might get a 'mind blocker' if they would find something like this for a decent price. But thanks for your heads up.

I have the Volpe and, allowing for the non-FFG and the painted logo on the handle it's indeed a close copy.
It is not so evident anymore to spot these fakes.
