Just perusing that auction site and I noticed there are 6 AKs listed by the same seller, all starting at $25 with an unkown reserve. Does this look like a scam to anyone? The pics are the same for each listing and there appears to be no description of color combination for any of them. Makes me wonder...
 
And they state that they have the corrugated bevel technology??? :confused: :confused:

Is there a new AK? I didn't think they were corrugated.
 
The AK's were the 1st corrugated knives. It's very subtle though, especially with the coating.

From Busse Company Store

The New American Kensei 47 "AK-47" is the second generation of the original American Kensei (circa 1989-97) and offers many performance enhancing improvements. The "AK-47" is now made of INFI and features our new Patent Pending Corrugated Bevel technology. This new bevel technology offers the absolute repeatable accuracy of CNC technology coupled with greatly increased toughness and strength over a typical flat ground blade. It also increases the AK-47's slicing ability by reducing the friction between the blade bevel and the cutting substrate. Rope grooved textured Micarta, G10, or Aluminum handles ensure a positive grip in the worst conditions.
 
So were the later AKs handground or flat ground? Mine is a flat beveled blade. Does this mean it was CNC machined?
 
Shhhhhhh!

Seller has a big rating. Unless his acct got jacked. Let's make this a battle of sniping technology so that we all get a "fair" price. :) Sadly, yer gonna have to pick one and work on bidding on that one. They are 10 seconds away from eachother. And I'll be away from my computer that afternoon too. :(

ALL AK-47 bevels are convex. . . . Just use a straight edged steel ruler on the bevel and rock away!!!. . . It is very subtle but you can't rock on a flat bevel.

LOL, that WOULD explain it. Must've just added this new info in the last 40min or so.
:cool:
 
Last night I sent the seller a question asking if they could guarantee the authenticity and did they have the original sale receipt from eithe BC or BCS as proof... and if not please retract my bid. :eek:

Got the response you see below.... sent emails off to Skunker and Boss Hog with their contact info. :D :D :D And the walls came crumbling down. :thumbup:

But I hate that there may now be counterfeits out there on the market. Hopefully Boss Hog fixes this! ;)
 
We have been in contact with the seller. . .They are good people who didn't know the history of these swords and when they were informed, they pulled them down.

All is well,

Jerry
