STRIDER KNIFE, Original or counterfeit?

Pictures showed up in post #7, but not the subsequent ones. I am not a strider guy, but the logo does not look right, it may be the angle of the picture though.

Edit: Now pics are showing up. Logo looks more legit in the better pics
 
Hi Stez Send a picture to Strider to help with " validation" I bought a "IF it's to good to be true" Strider off E Bay and it is a copy, a well made copy but NOT a Strider..VERY disheartening ...Chinese copy right infringements are epidemic in the world and make me personally not want to buy ANYTHING from them ......
 
Now that the pics are clearer that logo definitely looks off.. but man, I've never seen a clone with that good of flamed Ti and everything else looks good too.

The knife looks as real as they get the one thing is the logo . I have never seen a strider logo that looks like the one in you Knife . Makes me think it's a clone .
 
Thanks guys,

Better shots of markings. I'll contact Strider when I get a chance. I bought about 300-400 knives for around $2k and none were sold to me as anything special. I am still going through them, many Benchmades, Kershaws, Spydercos, Gerbers, etc. All thrown together in big plastic baggies. The guy collected for 30 years since he was a kid and wasn't trying to fool me. Doesn't mean he didn't get a bad knife. I would carry this knife if it's a fake, no problem, really nice actually. Here is a better photo (hopefully) of the logo.

Thanks,

The word STRIDER seems a bit odd the space between the S-T-R as opposed to the letters around the "I" and the logo deff looks odd.
 
Sometimes I wonder if a knife clone maker would come here as questions like this to see if their product could pass off as original so they can pass it on for a higher profit.

JUST WONDERING, not calling anyone out.
 
Looks fake to me. I've never seen that logo on any of their knives.

With that being said......that's the best fake strider flamed ti I have seen yet.


Edit: I stand corrected. I just read the above post. Never seen that logo before
