Is this for real?

[samhain73]

It looks a lot like the Chinese knockoff Buck's I've seen at gunshows, and have never heard of Buck doing anything like this, but I could be wrong?
It's a link to an active auction, so if this is not cool feel free to remove it, I'm just really curious. The zombie/skull paint job was done by the custom shop?

I admit, it does look different, but I think it is the real deal. I met Richard Neyman at the last Buck meeting in Atlanta. He had a great Buck display and was selling his book, "History of the Buckmaster" at the show. So, it certainly is strange, I think he does get some good stuff directly from Buck, ats-34 steel too.

If you do a quick search on the bay, you'll see a few of these. I saw a zombie killer Buck punk, and the Hoodlum. I'm sure there are others as well and yes they are real Buck knives, just ruined with glow in the dark paint. Cool if your a kid...kind of
