I've never seen one before, actually looks quite convincing at first blush. Although, it lacks any spyderco markings.

Sickening....

At least they put "clone" in the title, though, so the seller is probably a solid dude. :rolleyes:

From the description: "I buy/sell/trade a ton of clones."

I guess they feel like being "honest" makes it OK? Nice.

Folks lacking in ethics have probably been around since the days of the cave man. However, I'm afraid there is now an entire generation, worldwide, that has grown up thinking that the theft of intellectual property is socially acceptable. It started with copyrighted material; music, games, and movies. Now, it's spread to disdain for patents and trademarks as well and I suspect we'll see more and more of that as 3D printing comes into its own.
