Unfortunately, also in the world of blades, there is the counterfeit market of main brands knives.
Generally these fakes are being offered on Chinese online stores, but also on several online stores apparently beyond suspicion.
As a first suggestion you have to be wary of products sold at excessively low prices, in addition, if the seller does not guarantee the authenticity of the knife, it is better to look more closely at every detail of the product, comparing them with the photos of original products that are always on producers offical websites.
Unfortunately, it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish original products from fakes, because in the latter are given false information - written on blades or packaging - about places of production (although the fake knives are made in China - and Asia in general - they are marked with the place of production which appears onto original models); it is notice that also fake knives have serial numbers, just like the originals.
Here are some conterfeit knives of prestigious brands. In some cases we make comparison with the original product.
We make an appeal to knives enthusiasts to be careful not to raise the counterfeit market that are hurting honest businesses in favor of those who enrich themselves by doing commercial parasitism by exploiting innovative and inventive efforts of others to gain benefit in a completely illegitimate way.

On 31th march 2017 morning, in a social media post, Mick Strider just announced that Strider Knives will be closing its doors.
Cold Steel, one of the leading knife brands in the world, has found that one of their most popular products is the SRK, an acronym for Survival Rescue Knife. This knife became part of the standard equipment of the Navy Seals during the BUD / S training course (Basic Underwater Demolition / Seal).
One of the most interesting innovations of last year was the 0456, produced by the American Company Zero Tolerance, and based on Dmitriy Sinkevich's custom model, "The Pole".
Once again the entirely American collaboration between the knife maker Rick Hinderer and the prestigious Company from Oregon, the Zero Tolerance, with the ZT 0180 has generated interest and enthusiasm among the fans.
Presented at the 2016 Shot Show, the new model 0095bw by Zero Tolerance is the perfect blend of quality materials and modern design.
The Zero Tolerance 0560 model designed by Rick Hinderer and awarded "Collaboration of the Year" at the Shot Show 2011, is now offered with an even more attractive appearance thanks to the BlackWashTM finishing introduced on market early last year.
