Is this dog tag for real?

My main skepticism is that its being sold in China from a person with 1 feedback. Can anyone who knows dog tags well comment on this item?


thanks

Hmm...well im not sure. If it is a fake,its a really good on. My gut feeling on this says "No Bueno" . The left row of kanji lettering is stamped odd. I could be totally wrong,this is just my opinion.Others who know alot more can help you out more then I can.
Interesting though. String appears to be a chin tie from a helmet maybe??

Actually this tag looks pretty good and I am trying to find something really wrong with it, but I cant.
It is named to an infantry Chui or 1st lieutenant. The strap looks like the correct one that was issued pre and early war specifically for dog tags.
Coming from China does give me reason to pause however. As mentioned, if this is indeed a fake, we are in big trouble.

It's fine, there are a lot of good things that come from China but, the majority are bad you just need to be informed. I wouldn't advise rookies buying from China.
