I already contacted ebay about that specific listing. Problem is, they might take THAT one down, but in a few days
a new one will be up :/

I just reported it.
Every time you see anything like that report it, so Ebay has to take it down. Put that seller ID on your watch list, and constantly report them!
Look at everything else he has for sale, Report every copy/fake he sells.

Please DO NOT post links to live auctions here...especially to these cheapazz fakes. Some folks LIKE to buy knockoffs...and in addition to being a violation of BladeForums rules to link to live auctions, I certainly don't want to make it any easier for those people that do buy fakes, counterfeits, knockoffs, etc. to find this s***. Know what I mean? 
If you want to point out a fake on an auction site, please report the violation on that site and if you want, post a pic of it here, but NO MORE LINKING.
Thank you.

Me neither! Can't believe they get away with selling it too. :thumbdn: While I checked the links, I ended up reporting these again, plus a bunch of others from other makers that I recognize as counterfeit and/or fake.

Its makers and dealers like those that make it difficult for new people.
That, and those who manipulate the ebay search by using Busse in their titles, there's three non Busse's popping up right now.

Mike-The-Knife,
No worries.
You both had good intentions and more than the 3 of us surely do hate Fake Busse's. (Not to be confused with Fake Jerry's...which surely some on here might hate, too! 
)As I posted some time ago on another of these threads...it's a bit of a catch-22 between posting heads-ups with links to educate and to warn other members to avoid what is fake, and having those that will happily buy fakes stumble over those posts and then run to buy it with the poster effectively (and unintentionally) making it easier to find. I believe that just a pic and a brief heads-up without mentioning what search terms or links would find it easier might be the compromise between protecting those of us still too new to maybe make the mistake and bid on or buy a fake when looking for real Busse's (or other makers' knives) and those would don't care who they hurt by buying counterfeit goods.

It's one thing to steal designs and sell them under a different label, very bad, but it's an entirely different story when the actual Busse brand has been stolen and is being used to advertise knives that aren't even remotely Busse. It's an anger inducing situation, and these morons seem to be getting away with it, hopefully they'll be shut down soon.
People need to be made aware that these products are NOT Busse and have absolutely NOTHING to do with Busse. With more and more counterfeits turning up every week, perhaps some sort of sticky here on the forums or a global email or some kind of ad needs to be deployed to spread awareness of this. People need to be aware, that if they buy one of these things, they are buying a ripoff and it is not covered buy any Busse warranties or guarantees. They need to be aware that when it breaks, that's it. Kaput. No more banana.
