    Unhappy My Nemesis is Back

    Well, that didn't take long. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Spyderco-Blu...item4166261f8b.
    Everything about this auction is fishy: no account history, first item posted, etc.
    Reported.

    Thanks.
    I do a lot of work on the 'bay (especially tracking and compiling price-lists for Spydercos), and I believe in the users policing the site. If no one tags these scammers, they will continue to get away with their fraud - even if the 'bay mostly does nothing...
    This is the best place to make these fakes known: the people here really love and respect Spyderco, and will gladly protect the brand from such flim-flam artists.
    I absolutely abhor Chinese fakes and bootlegs, and I will fight them with every ounce of strength I can muster from behind this keyboard.

    As a new guy I appreciate it. If I spent money on something fraudulent I'd be both ashamed and livid. These fakers really piss me off on so many levels as they're stealing from Spyderco all the way down to we the consumer. May they die slowly. (too harsh?)

    I have no problem with Chinese knives - I think there are honest companies out there that try to come with original designs and good manufacturing (like Sanrenmu or Enlan) - but I do have serrious issues with shameless copies they try to pass as the real thing
