It this a replica of some Spyderco model or not?

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.

Just seen this new knife for sale on the usual Chinese fake marketplace. Since it use Spyderco hole, I was wondering if I should add it to my list of fake or not, what do you guys think? It might also be a spyderco model I don't know. I'm not a spydie wiki like some here ;)

It appears to be a fake Benchmade. The real model does use a Spydiehole for it's opener.

It's a Benchmade 806 AFCK. The fact that BM themselves use the round hole for some of their models (like the AFCK, Vex, Dejavoo aso.) has been heavily debated already.
