All About Pocket Knives

Two More Fake knives just for peoples interest. i forget where I got these pictures from. I don't own these knives just the pictures.

If you guys didn’t point these out , most of the time I have no idea .

Other than being fakes, I think they are pretty nice looking knives. The tang stamps look very suspicious to me.

They do look good. The choil on the Case looks odd to me though.

I'm nomally not much on reading stamps but these both stick out as fake stamps. Note that all the letter ends are very rounded. Stamps on old knives should have letter ends that appear more squared off. The doctor's knife is an example of looks new because it is new. The stamp on it's master blade is off center. The Case knife looks like one of the many fakes sold on eBay by a vender that used to take center stage here in the counterfeit forum.

I think the bone work is pretty good. I wonder how they get that to look so good ?

I believe the frame on the Case is an old original one including the handles though not Case. The dr’s knife frame and handles are newer.

It tough for them to get bone to age and obtaining old bone in mint condition must be impossible. I'm always looking for clues so i don't make the mistake of buying a fake.

Not really, I have a lot of it, but luckily I'm not into counterfeiting knives.

What I meant was that taking old bone and forming it to the knife must be impossible to get it to look good. I think its important to show people examples of Counterfeit knives and the real thing. There are so many questionable knives that sell for a lot on ebay so people need education.

If you don't Mind, would you take a few pictures of the old bone that you have ?

Sure, here is a picture of some that I have on file. All nicely jigged and ready to put on a knife, once buffed it would look just like an original handle on an old knife.
