Is this strider fake

As a side note, I think there are some really nice ti frame lock D2 knives going for around $80 that aren't knock offs, but proprietary designs.

Could you point me towards some of these? I love super value knives.

(You can email me if it would be deal spotting or whatever it is called)
 
I'm very sorry for my little knowledge in striders bit is this one fake?

This one looks real to me but looks like it has been pimped. The pivot bolts looks like its been polished. Pimped Striders= no warranty.
 
Of course not, The Chinese are full of S**T. They copy everything they can get their hands on. Why would they use a quality steel on their junk knives ?.

Seems awfully ignorant to try and paint 1.3 billion people with the same brush.

Unfortunately, China's huge and infamous fake junk mass production schemes leave the high quality stuff they make in the shadows. Not too familiar on the knives, but violins and watches are a good example. How many people would believe china makes $10,000 tourbillons that are well made and worth the price? People only bother reading about the fake rolexes.

This might come off as a bit rude, but please, it is said with the utmost of respect.

It seems you are in the market for a Strider at a good price. Rather then trying to find a deal on a Strider. Save your money and buy from a reputable dealer, or, support one of the makers here on BF.

Here are some good dealers:

obviously it is a fake

The dealer tells you it is a fake

the price tells you it is a real fake

everyone in china knows that ,while you don't

usually these knives are only sold in china

please be noticed : American laws can't be executed in china,and china's copyright laws may intend to protect foreign brands like strider ,but the police officers got more important things to do.

yes , producing fake products is illegal, and someone who can't tell the difference from real to fake can be the victim...but why can't you tell the difference ?

you want those who produce fake knives to stop the illegal dealing?
you want those who ship the fake products over the oceans to stop shipping?
come on ,wake up , i just told you , chinese police officers are very very busy,maybe so do the Ameircan ones.

去年4月,巨星席琳·迪翁在上海狂扫A货,此事经媒体曝光后,巨星光顾的小店很快被工商查封。而这家名为上海仲雯贸易公司的小店,今年年初被LV公司指控侵犯著作权。昨天下午,上海市第一中级人民法院对本市一起因销售假冒LV箱包引发的侵犯商标专用权案件做出一审宣判:判令在本市陕西南路等门面销售假冒LV箱包等产品的被告林益仲和吴蓓雯夫妇以及所经营的仲雯贸易公司停止侵权,并赔偿原告路易威登马利蒂人民币50万元。

  去年4月,席琳·迪翁到上海开演唱会。演唱会的前一天,这位国际大牌到陕西南路一家小店扫A货,买了整整九个编织袋的东西。经媒体曝光后,市工商局工作人员立即到那家小店调查取证,证实席琳·迪翁在现场购买了侵权商品。不久,工商局对这家店实施了查封,并没收了其销售的A货。

last april(the year of 2008),celine dion came to shanghai to run a show
one day before the show ,the super star went to a small shop on SOUTH SHANXI road and purchase lots of fake LV bags ,which filled up 9 huge weaving bags. After been exposed by the reporters , officers from the industrial and commercial bureau came into investigation , confirmed that celine dion did bought fake products. In a short time ,the officers closed the small shop down.

Jdavis on YouTube does a awesome comparison video between a strider clone vs the real deal.
 
From what iv seen.. if you can get a picture of the back of the blade its a dead giveaway if its fake. If they dont show the back they are probablly hiding something. Fake - stop pin Real - a hump inside the g10 that you can not see as a stop pin.
