Fake Q?

I don't remember the Q saying 'blade' on it. A red flag might also go up do to it not having a box and still marked as "new". :confused:

It's legit.

Actually, there were 2 different Blade Magazine Q's, a regular and a 25th Anniversary. However, while I'm sure the blade and handle are both genuine, the knife in that auction may or may not be entirely legit. AFAIK, all the regular version Blade Q's were 1st generation, and the handle on that one is a second generation handle.

This will keep you entertained for a while...

Yep, I also believe that all the regular ones were a 1st gen handle while the 25th Anniversary should be 2nd gen handle. Of course, there was also a 3rd "Blade Magazine" variation, but it was just the regular one, but with gold anodizing on it.

More info can be found on the Spydiewiki Q page, which I've tried to make as accurate as possible: http://www.spydiewiki.com/index.php?title=C35_Q
