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

Re: WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE
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.

Re: WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE
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...
