DKiG thoughts

Hi all,

Sorry if I’m posting an obvious repo. Just looking for thoughts on this piece. I’m not experienced with them but from the rear I’m learning towards postwar. Seen it for $300.

Thank all

Sorry, terrible fake

I can only agree: fake!


Regards, Wim

I agree, a easily spotted fake. The asking price as well is a good indicator of it's lack of originality.

Thanks all, just wanted to confirm. Being peddled by a Mike Jones on Letgo out of Allentown PA. When I compared it to ones by Lakesidetrader it certainly stood out... Price usually helps spot fakes, but you can’t use that as a definite rule I have gotten some killer deals... Not everyone knows what they’re selling and to compliment that not everyone knows what they’re buying, like me asking about this item again thanks. I’ll try to stick with edged weapons so I don’t fill this section with is it real threads.
