Howdy folks !
So, I got this presumably old Military from a seller. It arrived today, and I need help confirming whether it is or is not a genuine item.
I'm covered if it's not ;)
I can't use the forum's search function to look for bestfolderknife.com because the search function doesn't understand it's all one word, and it thinks the words are too common to search for. So maybe this has been discussed already. That said:
Seller has good feedback, but AFAIK there hasn't been a cherry red variant of either model, no red scales on S45VN either...
The M390 and 4V knives had translucent G10.
These aren't being sold at bargain (counterfeit) prices and they're listed as new ,...
I've been collecting knives since COVID hit, and this hobby has been very therapeutic for me. Anyways, I was doing some research on amazon about counterfeits and etc, I came across this WAY-TOO-GOOD to be true...
I contacted this seller the first time I saw this fake listed. She pulled it once, then listed it again with a lame may be a replica disclaimer. This is at least the second one she has listed, so she must have bought several. She also has a stainless fake...
I am trying to find out the origin of a Shaman that is posted in a facebook group. It appears to be modded (a lot). My concern is that I have never seen a DLC coated rex 45 Shaman blade. The seller sent me this photo- something looks off. Someone's...
First time poster from long time owner. I recently lost my old Delica 4 in a large wood pile and have not recovered it as of yet. It was purchased about 4 or 5 years ago from a reputable online vendor. I decided to try my luck on Amazon and purchased an...
Hi,
Recently I've been turning myself towards pretty well used Spydercos, in order to give them a new life at my side.
Someone proposed to sell me a ZDP Stretch for around 50 bucks.
He made pictures and I didn't think much of it except that the...
Does the size of the triangular opening on the fangs of the spider logo indicate a fake? I saw some posts and a YouTube video about spotting fake spydercos claiming this. When I checked out my spyderco boxes I noticed 2 of the ones I have look like the...
I've taken some close up photos of a Squeak I've just received. Spyderco customer services haven' t been able to confirm fake or otherwise (but will if I post the knife to the USA - I'm in the UK). The logo on the knife has a well define triangle where...
Just saw this, somebody linked it on Reddit to ask if it might be a scam. $82 for a Manix 2 XL and the T&C page has a copypasta ramble about dyelots and red napkins, what could go wrong?
Hej there,
a friend of mine bought this dragonfly (i think on amazon). Is this fake or real?
to me the frn seemed a bit weird and the missing bug made me suspicious.
Bought this on Ebay last month and while I think its authentic, 2 things seem odd.
The T8's are more of a T9 snug fit and the weight is 2 grams lighter.
Comparing boxes to a known authentic Para 3 it is 100% perfect.
The seller has 118 sold spyderco's...
I just purchased a used Techno 2 from the milliepm2p3club Facebook group.
It looks terrific to me - very comparable to my original Techno 1 that I purchased new. A paid a fair price - definitely not a too good to be true price.
Saw this counterfeit Dragonfly on eBay a moment ago and reported it. Seller with 0 feedback and shipping out of China has has several of these for sale. Unfortunately, someone has already bid for one. With the tang stamp misspelling, these should be easy...
I have a special interest in finding reliable methods to identify clones. If I find a way to verify the metal, then that will be a sure way to catch them. Clones don’t use real S90V etc.
I have emailed Spyderco a while back with pictures and a request...
Received this after purchasing an advertised S45VN lefty Para2 on Amazon. Disappointing to see New Graham, my preferred dealer, out of stock on them for so long.
I haven't gotten a new Spyderco since the blue Lil Matriarch, but was suspicious of the...
Hello,
I'm eric. I live in France.
I collecting knives. I have many ones.
Usually french knives. But i recently find this one. (For 5$)
No hole but spyderco written on the blade... desapointing !
Let me Know what you think of this probably fake spydie...
A fake peddler on eBay sent me of all people an offer to knock ten bucks off the price of his Spider knife Police edition, taking it down to $65.00. Pretty sure that's below wholesale for the Police Model, and he has more than 10 available. For some...
I was offered this for a trade. It was stated he acquired it from Knifecenter, but it looks off to my eyes. Let me know if I'm wrong thanks for the help! :bug-red-white
My favorite Police Model fake vendor was emboldened by beating the clock on his last auctions, even though he didn't sell anything. New zero feedback account, three pages of fakes. Police, Harpies, Para2s, Shamans, Szabos, even a Subvert.
In my endless research of the best places to buy some holed knives in France, I stumbled upon this website : . It seems sketchy, especially since I never saw it before. I can't really find any information online (checking credibility of websites and...
