If that knife looks familiar, here is the same basic pattern/frame, which the same seller was masquerading as a Case Tested congress just a few days ago. ::dang:: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=58943

Don't forget the Winchester that he has on Ebay.

You're right Tim, I missed that one. Here's a picture of it, for posterity. Makes you wonder how many more of these POS he has and how he will mark them. ::shrug::

Kind of interesting he says "can't find another one like it" look on the garage bench. There are a whole pile of them.

His ads state "I do my best to represent all the items I sell as honestly as I can." I asked him if he honestly believed these knives to be old and original and there was no response. Go figure.

It's really tragic that people stoop so low to make a dollar. The guy obviously has talent and certainly could apply it better. If you were misfortunate enough to have purchased one of these works of disgrace you can still get your money back. Even if the seller says no returns, Ebay guarantees you that you will get the item as described. He is selling these as original and authentic which they are not. Ebay would rule in the buyer's favor without question. Shame if this "honest" seller picked up some negative feedback over his fraudulent activities.

I emailed this seller and told him what a disgrace he was to the knife collecting community and ethical people in general. He responded by saying - WTF - LOL. If you have a minute take the time and share your thoughts of his activities to this seller. I think it is like talking to a brick wall.

Not surprising. These types are just out to make a quick buck - they couldn't care less about any impact on the hobby. And they think it's funny that they're able to cheat someone. ::facepalm::
