They look ok to me, appears to be g-10 scales which would need to be removed to see the serial #'s. Not familiar with that forum or site so no opinion on that. How about a link to the sale info?
I do, not all that useful in the secondary market though, and I was only interested in letting purchaser know if they were authentic or not.
Knives are not in my possession, guess I should have been clear on that. They both sold (another forum) for $25 each, highly suspect on its own. I do appreciate the replies though!
The sheaths are old stock (slot) but removing the scales so you can see if they bear a 51455 serial number would be the only way to know for sure. They do have the very small sharpening choil which the counterfeits do not. Mike
