Take a look at this knife:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Case-XX-mint-1940-64-era-red-bone-62087-3-3-8-jack-knife/141160657892?_trksid=p2050601.m2372&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D207%26meid%3D4095963975429432993%26pid%3D100085%26prg%3D1112%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D251417329513%26%26clkid%3D4095964445550020479&_qi=RTM1562571
This knife isn't right. The blades are BACKWARDS! Whoever put it together put the main blade in back. Every 62087 I've been able to find a picture of has the main in front. Beware!!!

Concur. I am not sure that is the only thing wrong either. And some light reading:

I have never bought anything from them but I have seen them misrepresent a Boy Scout knife. It was an older BS knife LINB. I think the knife was cleaned not LNIB. It looked real good but the box drove the price up considerably. The knife was from the 40s but the box had a zip code on it. Zip codes started in 1963. I emailed him about the box but he ignored me.
Most of his knives look cleaned.
 
He has a long history and there are other threads regarding his practices on this forum. Sadly he does occasionally have something that looks "right" but I can't trust him.
