Spyderco or not?

[Thomas Linton]

Spyderco Folding Knife Emerson flip style super fast open feature.. . . I do not know the model. No markings on tang.

 

[rycen]

Not...

 

[wolf-man-12]

2nd the "not ~ "not".!****

 

[RevDevil]

That is a genuine piece of junk. Not even close to a Spyderco...

 

[jtoler_9]

Negative. Southard and Domino = only Spyderco flippers to date.

 

[benchwarmer380]

Not at all. Emerson flip style? Dey ignant.

 

[gine]

Noes.

 

[nccole]

Yeah Emerson is the wave opening feature. Kit Carson is the guy who Spyderco credits on their one and only available flipper. The Domino (their second flipper) is coming soon.

SENT TO SELLER:

Whether you know it or not, you are selling a counterfeit. It is not a Spyderco knife.

If the item is not removed, the sale link will go to Spyderco and the counterfeit will be reported to eBay.

Would Emerson be interested?

 

[Thomas Linton]

He pulled the item from eBay.

 

[graham_s]

I've seen that up on eBay a few times.
Every time it comes up I report it.

 

[philllll]

Oh, he may not admit it, but he knows. That seller is infamous around here for selling fake spydercos on the bay.

 

[salmonkiller]

Cheap Chicom knockoff.

 

[Thomas Linton]

And now the scumbag has listed it again.

 

[Barman1]

And now the scumbag has listed it again.

Get it cheap and start your own Spyderco knockoff collection. Other than the fact that it would promote the manufacture of this junk I would do it myself just for a laugh.

Most honest retailers, including the guy who runs this forum, are also "on the Internet," as are many customer makers. It's like the World in general. You need to be aware of rough neighborhoods.

 

[M.FREEZE]

This knife had a "buy it now" price of $35....
