WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE

Post by tinym7 »

DONT LOOK TO BAD, BUT THE BLADES LOOK TO GOOD TO ME AND I HAVE NOT SEEN MANY TESTED KNIVES WITH A PATTERN #. THAT DONT MEAN ITS FAKE SO THATS WHY I AM GOING TO LET YOU GUYS LOOK AT IT

The pictures arent great, but its probably legit. Theres not much reason to rework a slick black. They dont list for much anyway.

I saw that one when it was listed and it had me puzzled...the stamp does have a fake look to it. But the knife is a real 2345 1/2 with long pull so it would be early XX or Tested era...that would be tough to fake. Could be an original with a light stamp.

I am surprised that it has the pattern number but, as Steve stated, the knife looks right as rain. If someone wanted to fake this knife they would have likely put greenbone handles on it. I think it's an honest knife...
