The same seller is offering several blade blanks, no explanation on how he got them.

Looks like somebody's lunchbox was carrying more than lunch

Judging from what I see ... I'm a collector and I will not bid on such items ... a matter of course.

Thanks for the warning!

Agree with all that's been said. OTOH, photo from that auction does reveal one interesting thing. The lock detent cut seems to be made before the blade is ground. For some reason, I'd have thought it would be the other way around.

Just came to start a thread about this. I can't imagine these hunks of uncut blade would make it out of the factory in a reputable way. Now to disparage anyone. Just doesn't seem right to me.

My thoughts too. I don't imagine Spyderco actually sells these, so ...
