I received this " Sebertool m2 " the other day and I just don't really know what to make of it.
It came in an original plastic Sebertool M2 Box which could be suspicious, but I only paid $8 for it and I can't imagine going through the trouble of pairing a knockoff with an original box just to sell it for a measly $8.
It's a lot closer to a real Sebertool m2 than any kind of T5 I've seen, but off in a couple ways besides being sterile.

It's pretty much exactly as pictured on the " instruction " sheet it comes with as well as the one that came with my first M2, but is sterile.

You can see that this M2 is backwards compared to what's pictured in the instruction sheets .( was a Harley version, I stripped the black coating off )

This M3 is just as pictured in it's instruction sheet minus the Harley branding being on the opposite side.
Comparing it to my M3 ( wound up giving the first M2 away ) I don't really get the obvious impression that it was made somewhere else like I do with any pictures of the T5 that I've found online.
It's " mirrored " ( for lack of better words ) compared to my other branded Sebertool examples, but I have seen pictures of a few " mirrored " Sebertools online. I've also seen another identical example to this in the Sebertool M2 box, and other identical examples in different forms of Sebertool packaging with various company logos and such printed or etched on them.
Here's the sterile example which has no inside nubs and the edge nub is on the jaw piece.


And here's the M3 which has the inside nubs and has the edge nub on the handle piece instead of the jaw piece.

I'm guessing this is probably just an extremely late Sebertool M2 made just before the IDL acquisition, but I'd certainly love some thoughts and opinions.
