For some reason I've always liked the appeal of this model but I have a major problem. I've noticed this is like the most counterfeit spyderco on the bay. What are some sure ways to garuntee it's not a fake. I know the usual don't buy from china or Hong Kong sellers. If it's too good of price to be true it is. Is there like one good tell tale sign I can look for? Thanks in advance for any help guys!

You could always get the upcoming Spin sprints with blue Nishijin glass fiber scales. That's one variant that won't be a fake.

I would wait for a sprint personally but there are some places on the web with them in stock. National Knives deals in new Spyderco's so I have to assume their spins are real as well.

Rycen's post will help a lot, also the price may tell you. If it's cheap it's probably a fake.

The spin lives on my key chain and has great ergos. It's my just in case spydie. I hardly ever leave the house without my car keys.
