Benchmade 3300 Infidel nib

[doormann]

i have a mint infidel I’m offering for sale to off set another purchase. The knife comes with original box, docs and sheath. These go for $400 or better on bhq I’m asking $300 shipped. Add 3.5% for PayPal goods and services.

you do know that's a chinese knockoff right?

 

[doormann]

No I didn’t know that this was a knock off, I got it on a trade for another knife. What makes you think it’s a clone?

 

[piksto]

well the infidel writing on the pocket clip looks too solid and that color and red are known clones from china...

I hate to break the bad news to you, doorman...but I'm pretty certain that pitsko is correct (he's the auto maestro). Benchmade didn't make an Infidel 3300 in a blue handle configuration...but the Chinese managed to, for about $40-45.

I'll send you the link. BTW: would you mind sharing in the GBU, whom exactly screwed you over in this trade?

Edit: Add YT video

 

[doormann]

I would be happy to!

Ok, I got the shaft on this deal... I had no idea I had a clone, I trusted the guy I got it from. I’ve messaged him and will try to reverse this situation. Thanks piksto and Kelama for bringing to my attention.

 

[piksto]

No sweat just didn't want anyone else to get screwed

 

[doormann]

Me neither!

You can rely on piksto and KELAMA...they're straight shooters!
Good luck with straightening this out, doorman.

If this was a recent PayPal transaction then you had a very high chance to get your money back. Please report this at GBU.

I started a thread on gbu and will update it as soon as I can.
