I might try this too, but I'm sure there's a point somewhere after which I couldn't return it as "unopened."
Thanks.

Thanks -- I'll give this a try later this evening... unless I decide I want to send it back anyway.

EDIT: 1 JUN 2013 -- UPDATE (full details in my post of 1 Jun below) THIS TURNED OUT NOT TO BE A PROBLEM AT ALL-- I finally followed the advice given in this thread by several forum members, properly cleaned and lubed the knife, and now the Caly 3.5 is turning out to be one of my favorites :) ORIGINA...

I guess he's just symbolic of all us newbies lurking around on these forums trying to get EDge-u-cated :confused:

Bb? Sorry, still kinda new. I'm still waiting for wonders and warriors (lol) to get them in. If you mean my "b/b," I just meant black handle/black blade. I'm a total noob at this forum and haven't figured out yet if people are using initials for dealer names to save time or because it's f...

ROFLMAO :) Very edifying thread, torx drivers, taxi drivers and all :)

I ordered one (b/b) last night to arrive in one week. Glad to see the screw heads are also black.

Thanks for all the research guys. Unfortunately, none of these sources seems to have incorporated black w/black blade into their thinking, which is what I'm looking for. Tactical Cutlery has by far the best price I've seen, but not low enough to sound like a really bogus site, and I also think PayPa...

Since I have the time ... I apply vigilance and persistence when spotting fakes like this .... and they are out there in great numbers. My routine is to first report the item to Ebay (Usually not very successful, since Ebay is in business to make money ... but, on occasion has worked). Next, I send...

there are a lot of indices, what can help you to spot fakes! the para2 fake above to example doesn't come with gimping! you're at the right place to get to knoe all the details! maybe check out the knock offs replica thread here in the forums! regards jul Yes, the lack of jimping is pretty obvious ...

What scares me is that any unscrupulous individual could snap up several fakes and turn them over quickly on eBay as the real thing, just selling as an anonymous individual. I've just been bitten recently by the Spyderco bug (spider?) and the fake pictured on eBay seemed to have every detail. I'm lo...

I'd like to get a couple of black/blacks. Until I can get them from my favorite dealer at his price, my scale swap I intend to do will remain on hold. For me, this can wait. Since you have a set timeframe that you need one by, it may depend on how much you think they are worth for you to get one in...
