I think there is some kind of odd camera effect in the seller's photo. I tried inverting his photo and yours, and they look somewhat closer. Since the pin hole is visible in both, I do not think there was a shield.

thanks fellas appreciate opinions!!!!!!

i been staring at his pics....and i THOUGHT it had TIN FOIL glued in there for his pix.......

but ..... i took a alcohol pad to get all the super glue off......
and PURPLE INK!!! AKA MAGIC MARKER!!!
now i think as dan said....lighting in HIS PIC was before HE COLORED IT IN WITH MAGIC MARKER!!!
CUZ ....now its white and i can see how the lighting would make it LOOK like a shield??? MAYBE..LOLOL

I BELEIVE IT WAS WHITE OR HE HAD TIN FOIL GLUED IN THERE ::nod::

MAGIC MARKER IS POST THE PIX HE POSTED TO SELL THE KNIFE.................. i think? ::shrug:: ::doh:: :mrgreen:

I think he might have just colored in the light spot a bit so it wouldn't stand out. He should of colored it in BEFORE he took the pictures for the auction.
