Man, that is absolutely nuts. How much effort went into making the copy? Where are the forgeries for sale? How could it be financially worthwhile to fake so well? Absolutely crazy. On new knives, I'm sticking tight to respectable dealer. Scary.

I don't understand the idea of selling someone an admitted fake.

This smacks of the buyer (if there is one) turning around and attempting to sell it as the real thing, and some innocent person getting the shaft.

I was conned into buying a watch via e-bay that turned out to be a forgery. I got my money back via Paypal. I thought about reselling it (disclosing it as a fake), then thought the better of it. I didn't this happening to someone else down the road.

The listing seller ended the auction without any bids having been placed. This is probably for the best.
