Stefan_Wolfs's Spyderco, Problem Logging In To Forum

The YouTuber Stefan_Wolf bought a Paramilitary, and when he recieved it there were some questions he had to see if it was a genuine Spyderco. He is in Eastern Europe. He posted this on the Towards 0.1 Mircon because he had trouble logging into the Spyderco forum. Here is a link to his issues with pictures:

Any help would be appreciated in determining if this is a real Spyderco. Thank you in advance.

All pictured parts looks authentic.
Judging from the wear on the blade and scales, as well as lube marks around standoffs, I would lean towards the opinion that its parts have been swapped around before turned into a user. I did the same myself to two Para 2s that I now have already sold.

I'd very much like to quote one of Nick Shabazz's Knife Gripe episodes: <https://knifenews.wpengine.com/knife-gr ... hard-sell/>
Of course I am aware this is a donation, and most likely no actual transaction is involved, but still it's among one's obligation to pass along as detailed, as accurate information as possible to the next owner.

I am no help concerning the PM2, but maybe the log in issue: If he already HAS an account on the forum and just can't log in anymore: Since the recent forum maintenance he will have to "clean his browser (of cookies)" (really don't know how to express that in English) and everything will work fine again.
