There are a couple Snody Knives on Ebay that I saw that do not have his $nody logo on them. It says that they are the "undercover" versions. I am kind of curious why a maker would not put their mark on a piece that they have created. Is it possible that these are fakes. Any insight would be helpful.

Thanks
 
I'm pretty sure its fake because i googled it and there's nothing on it man. Only the ebay site you found it on. And if you look on his youtube channel he never mentions anything on it. But thats just what i think.

I am not sure why there is no logo but the seller ultra.reef is Snodys authorized dealer the last I heard. He is still shows forum admin for This forum.. he is just Ultrareef on here.

Snody did do a run on the blue bosses about 2 or 3 months ago..

I am pretty sure it is real but not sure why the logo is not on it. He does state it comes with COA which is nice.. I am sure snody will pop in today
 
I agree with Digital 69. The seller Earl - Ultrareef sells a lot of Snody gear. If Mike himself doesn't answer. I would write to Ultrareef, & I am sure he would give you any exact answer. Ultrareef also sold a lot of shank kits, & most of those had no logo on them because they were not completed knives... I am sure this is a genuine Snody Knife.
 
It is real. I have the same knife, and in pictures it is really hard to see the logo. Here are some pics of snapped of mine. One you can't see the logo, and on the close up you can. Ultrareef is a great guy to deal with as well.

Can't see it

I would like to make it clear that by no way was I implying that the seller was selling fakes or knock offs. I have come to enjoy the personallity and flavor that mike snody puts into his work. I had just happened to stumble across a few websites that had a "Boss" or two that "appeared" to not have his mark, yet identical design down to the T. My other thought was that these were possibly just more of bottom of the barrel because the price sort of reflected that. I am not saying these are poor knives. They are actually beginning to suck me in.

Just a side note, Most of these lower end models are not coming with a sheath. Is this common? I would really love to have a cross-draw sheath if I pick one of these up, any recommendations on where to get one.

Thank you for the help and clarification.
 
A lot of bosses came sheathless. Some earlier ones had a leather sheath, some recent batches had a kydex but latest boss batches came sheathless. Mike recommended a few sheathmakers- Lifters was one, forget the other.
 
its the "ghost" logo version they are real
i got a coyote boss with a "ghost" logo and a standard logo.

ultrareef is a pleasure to deal with, excellent service and knowledge
