Are there 4 max scout counterfeits?

[paul brown]

I searched the counterfeit thread but didn't see anything on the scout. Did the Chinese make them? and are there any tale tell signs? thanks gents

I have not seen one.....yet! They do clone the 4 Max for sure. I pretty much take for granted that anything CS can be cloned, for the most part anyway.

Yes, they hit Aliexpress about a week ago.

I just looked on there, yup they are there but like the AD10 & AD15 thats being faked, there is a large flat spot on the thumb lugs and its a good way to tell its a fake. the pocket clip on the fake scout looks different too.

looks like "steel" is a smaller font size and the pivot screw appears to be different.

Here's one counterfeit I found while trying to determine if my own one is real.
