Are these legit Rada knives? Not a knock off??

The set that I got came with paperwork certifying them and other items you could order. I am enjoying my set very much.

Hi, while I am no expert in detecting knockoff's these seem very legit to me, main reason being the quality. Have had the first set for over 18 months & they are still extremely sharp and look great. On the other hand some Chinese knifes from Target that we had lost their sharpness in 6 months.

My knife has the same markings on it. No indication of blade steel on the blade. I don't have the box with me to look for any indications on there either. So far sounds legit.

I assume it is an original. I've had mines for quite some time and it is one of my best knives. I even like it better than my Emerson.

I 'believe' it is the authentic one, but I'd advise passing on any with the Rothco "middle-man" involved. They have a habit of selling cheap Chinese replicas, and sometimes the real thing. Why gamble? Plus Rothco doesn't make a thing, they're just middle-men. Look for this under the authentic Ontario 499 or AFSK, which mean the same thing. By the way, it's a sold knife with a rather crude "polish". Which is great as you'll put it right to work and it'll take a beating.

They are not fake. They are the real deal. I wouldn't have them if they were fake. I don't know if Monster has discontinued them (maybe). I know you can still buy them retail. (For a lot more)I hope I've helped. :-) -Emma

While I am surprised there are still originals available, I do believe the Gerber Command II's from the Amazon site are real. These knives were very expensive when first released. For this reason and possibly others such as a recovering economy, poor marketing strategy, or who knows why, they obviously didn't sell very well. What I do know for sure is that my knife is the real deal. And it was bought recently from this Amazon site. Once again, this is one awesome knife. Your're not going to find this knife for some ridiculously low price. And if you do it will be fake. Like the ones for $55.55 on some Chinese site with over 5,000 in stock. If it sounds to good to be true, well you know the rest.

Best way to tell before buying is the price, If your buying a $250 benchmade for $100 it is likely a fake. When you buy the knife check the outside of the box the knife came in (not the shipping box but the blue/black/gold benchmade box. If its legit it will have a barcode on one of the sides. This is from the factory in Oregon. Hope this helped

As far as I know these knives are authentic. At first I was worried after I noticed some variation on the handles. The utility and bread knives say FIBROX, but the chef and paring knives don't. However, if you check Victorinox's web site, you'll see the same variation throughout their Fibrox line, and the knives seem to work as well as advertised, so I don't see any cause to worry.

Yes. There are counterfeit knives out there and KABAR provides education on identifying them. The one sold here is not. It's real. It came with a box and small catalog with the knife and sheath.

Yes, they are the "classic". Although they are not of the quality of the other knives in the set. But then again that's probably to be expected. Still good quality for a steak knife.

No idea, there is little or no information provided by the seller. I doubt, for 40 dollars or so, it is true damascus steel, but that is just my opinion which may, or may not, have any validity. I have one, but would I buy another one? No, probably not, with the cost of international shipping and the cost of the knife itself it isn't really a bargain especially if you don't know what you are getting. This goes beyond the scope of your question but there is really no way to answer. All one can do is offer an opinion.

All of the Victorinox knifes that I have bought from Amazon have been originals. If they weren't they wouldn't probably hold an edge as well as they do and I would have sent them back. They do make different models and also different colored handles. I don't know what you are seeing on the website but these are the real deal.

I have been using spyderco knives for years and have the trainer for this knife as well, definitely not a fake. I bought one from these guys a year or so ago and it is still in my pocket with a deadly edge.

Yea it's the real deal brother. Yea there are a lot of fake ones out there but there are no fake ones with the black DLC blade. To be sure I disassembled it and saw the date of manufacture which is only on the real ones
