I know this topic has been covered before but instead of completely counterfeit knives this one individual blades being sold. This eBay seller (
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid ... doccutlery ) has a large amount of single blades of US made knives for sale. They all have the same look, the same texture and the same amount of corrosion. Most have a blue heat mark like it went through a fire. There is some a bit wonky about the stamps.Any thoughts?

I reported the blades to fleabay and of course they "investigated" and found the Modoc Cutlery in compliance with eBay rules.

I’m 100% convinced that eBay has nobody on their payroll that can accurately make a determination on anything knife related except for autos/switchblades. For this and many other reasons, eBay is on life support and about to pronounced dead by many in the knife community. The white hot venue for knife trading these days seems to be live streaming sales like Facebook and WhatNot.
