I haven’t dealt with that ebay seller before but judging by your pictures to me I don’t see anything that sticks out to me as fake. I don’t have a PM2 from Bento Box but I do have the Para 3 M390 and everything looks correct including box and paperwork. I don’t think you have anything to worry about as most fakes usually use the base s30v PM2.

I'm not sure the box in the photos originally went with that knife. The knife appears to have the pre-CQI plunge grind angle, which means it should be from either the 2012 or 2016 runs, but the date code on the box is from the 2019 run.

How did it work out? I see that seller on eBay all time but never bought from them.

Looks legitimate.

Fakes are typically of the standard s30v or vg-10 models.
