Fake or not?

#1

Post by falien »

Hello

I just found a few "Spyderco" Knives in an online auction.
But I think these are faked....
What do you think? :confused:

Fake!

From China. We have them here at flea-markets a lot.

In the OP, the second link.. I have reported multiple ebay listings for this same knife.. Nothing ever seems to be done about it.. I don't understand how they can get away listing this as a spyderco.

Thanks for your answers. That's exactly what I assumed. I've reported the listings. Hopefully this will help... but I doubt...

Fake, Fake and Fake. Lack of Spyder hole is the first clue. It doesn't hurt to ask though if you aren't sure.

These are such bad knockoffs, they make the rest of the true "counterfeit" Spydercos look almost legitimate! Well.... almost...
