Those HKs might be real but real crappy like those released for big5 or whatever the store was...I'm not entirely sure either.

Yea I wasn't sure about those, so I didn't report them. Reported all the rest though, not that they ever do anything about em.

No, fleabay won't do anything about us reporting them. Only BMK has the power to report and have items removed.

PM Jason the auction ID's and he will get them to the people with the power to have them taken down...

I believe you are thinking of the 14141 Flak.

That was a big 5 exclusive, that i would have sworn was a bad knock off

They also did the 14140

This one also came with Sand scales, if memory serves.

Pretty sure these ones on Fleabay are bad fakes though.

Indeed, I cannot for the life of me remember EVER seeing a BMK with a can opener on it...

Lol...I didn't even notice the can opener. I just thought there was an HK with a rescue hook.

Simple solution. Buy off reputable dealers. If online research companies and look for authorized dealers. If you buy a fake it's your own damned fault. I mean come on. The listings on Ebay fake Items usually start with country of origin: China. And a $250 knife retails from $9 to $60 lmao. And the seller name is usually some dumb name like ching ping. Simply look at reputable businesses like Ecop and buy off them. Ebay is not all bad. But if you are stupid or Naïve enough to buy a fake Benchmade that is $50 and retails for $200 or more and not question or research it's authenticity from some unknown questionable business then that's your own damn fault. Then you come on here crying you bought a fake. Serves you right. I can see maybe a teen being taken advantage of once and showing some pity. But grown men who have experience and years, social media, and access to research companies and forums like this to only make the same mistake over and over with fake knives then cry like toddlers when they get taken advantage of is no excuse. Nor does it warrant an emergency on my end. I have bought off of Ebay for 10 years and not once have I ever received a fake of any knife or product. Research your companies and buy off legit dealers. Problem solved.

I didn't know we can PM Jason to report.
I noticed the ebay about the fake and they have no action.
This seller have more than one fake.

Yep... Saw all 4 of those this morning and couldn't believe how many bids had been made on each of them. Especially considering how noticeably fake they are!
I reported all of them as well!
As Joshua1973 mentions above buy only from reputable dealers. Problem solved!
