Does This 110 Look Odd???

Thanks, Mitch.

Looks even more than odd. I was a little concerned that we were looking at a really good fake.

Actually, with better pics, it turns out to be not such a good fake.

But they are improving over some I've seen.

The seller has removed his auction.

Thus ends another chapter in the saga of fake 110s.
 
A knife dealer at the gunshow today had both a real and counterfit 110 on his sales table side by side. Handling them both I found all the previous comments are correct about them as compared to a real 110. The one I examined did not have BUCK stamped on the tang but did come in the crappy looking sheath with "Buck Knives" stamped on the flap just like the one shown here. The sheath was more like leatherett cardboard. The dealer referred to them as "International Bucks". Not sure he thinks that they are counterfit and didn't get into a discussion with him. Don't think it would fool a real Buck 110 afficianado for even a moment but it was good enough that I worry that a lot of people are going to be taken in. I wonder how many of these knives arrive at Post Falls for warranty work?
