Hey guys I have been looking for a Tanked.
Last week there was a large one on eBay, but the large is a little too large and it looked a bit wonky.
Today a small tanked popped up I think from the same seller, looks even worse, but what do I know. Could anyone take a look and let me know.

PS if it's real I call dibs.

Don’t post the links but copy paste us some pictures.
 
I took a look at it and while is looks OK in some respects like the lines and holes, I agree it looks wonky. The area around the big start looks off to me. I can't see the same sublte lines around the star in photos of real ones. Plus a real Tanked is two toned. Kinda a bronze and the standard CRK silver. It almost looks like somewhere tried to remove the bronze. Again, a lot of things look legit but others (star) don't. I wouldn't chance it. And the color just looks off.

i agree, does not look right. I think it may be real but someone messed with it. The color is off or it is the dirtiest one I have ever seen. Could be just horrible pictures but I would not touch it without better pics.
 
The Star. It’s all about the star. I have never seen where the outer part of the star has milling marks. I think it’s a fake. I’m calling off my dibs.
Thanks!

Yeah, the Star just looks way off. And the color/finish.

It's real, looks like the factory finish was blasted off. Ugly as hell.

I agree it looks real, but it appears to be a lefty.

That is what seems a bit odd about it.

That one I posted is mine, and yes it’s a lefty. I went to Blade in 2016 and bought it at the CRK booth. Anne said it was part of an order for across the pond that never was paid for. Lucky me to stumble across a lefty :)
