Well one could buy them all and reverse the charges because of the misrepresentation. You wouldn't have to return them if Customs came by and confiscated them. They might even start an investigation...

Dumbasses.....the listing states AUS10 blade but the picture clearly shows the knife reading S35VN..

Probably stole the image of a real Spartan knife, too.

the best give away:
Sold by dasy Zeng's store China (Mainland)

Let the buyer beware, if anyone with 1/2 common sense sees this, IT'S A FAKE!!

Can't counterfit products with your name on it be confiscated by some federal agency??

A few years ago one of the design goals I'd given Spartan Blades was to be ripped off by the Chinese.

Should have kept my mouth shut because Spartan made sure I was included.
