This is my first new topic, so I hope I get it right with the photos..
Anyway, a friend of mine just came across this knife. I told him that I would post some photos here to get some "expert" opinions on it. I believe that it could be an original bullet.
Please let me know what you guys think.
Thanks,

Re: R1123 Original Bullet?
I've examined the photos carefully, and everything looks correct and authentic to me. 
Theres some pretty decent counterfeits on the market right now that one has to be very careful with, but I'm satisfied yours is no counterfeit. I don't see an etch and theres a little scattered pitting but the blades are full, the jigging is strong and I don't see any cracks in the scales. Thats a quite valuable knife you have there. If its going to be for sale, send me a PM. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thank you for the fast reply..
Is there any tail tell signs, or pointers that you give me for spotting a fake? I will be happy to look this one over with a fine tooth comb for you.
