I’m fairly certain this Shaman is fake, but damn does it look close to the real thing. Please confirm if this is real. The font on the lettering is a bit different and the contour on the scales isn’t as round as it should be.
I finally got my hands on a Spydiechef for my collection and want to make sure it’s real. It’s second hand from eBay and was a good price, but not a “too good to be true” price.
Any recommendations on how to remove ink from clothes? My partner recently washed some clothes with a Uni Signo 207+ still in the pocket. How do I get this waterproof/archival grade ink out of clothes?
I’m hung up on the Y in Spyderco and detent is MUCH stronger than expected. Is this fake? The box loos legit but has no barcode on the small end and paperwork is for Manix. The green 20CV is authentic.
Just picked up this Manix 2 LW (far right) on eBay and worried it might be fake. Pictures on the listing looked good and box looks legit, but spring tension is softer than my others and the lettering looks slightly off. The laser etching and the satin finish have a slightly different color to it. The factory sharpening is terrible too, at least for Spyderco (I have a lot). From left to right, Manix G10 S30V (known authentic), Blue Manix LW (confident authentic, unverified), Black Manix LW (questionable authenticity). Thanks!
Edit: the spacing on the “Spyderco” letters looks bigger than the others and the spider logo’s mouth looks like a straight triangle instead of the typical arrow-shaped triangle
