Lakesidetraders also STILL have one for sale, which means... if he does not know that it`s a fake, then what DOES he know about them? after all, the HJ diamond is what the likes of him, and others like that DD harris chap, use as PROOF that certain HJ knives are real... you hear it all the time, you can see videos of both of these HJ daggers gurus on U-Toob parroting off filth like: If the diamond wiggles that means the knife is real, or if the diamond is gold colored that means it is good. SO....... if he slips up on the most common fake HJ badge like these Hoffmann ones, that is, to me at least, a clear indication that he does not know his onions... This is why i will never rope any of those names into an appraisal for HJ knives, or use them as anything other than: Not knowing what they are doing, or well knowing what they are doing and deliberately trying to sell rubbish, like Tom Wittmann has done now twice in six months, change history and try and fool people who cant read. (It`s a fact that in America, 15% of the population are illiterate, maybe those are his customers? )
