Doesn't have Horster characteristics. Tang should have the stylized H (or some call it a double pointed arrow) and crossgrain looks off as does the blade color tint (migh be the photo, however). Suspect at best.

last pictures

I was trying to get a photo of the edge showing that it is not really a blade edge, it is up to 1/16" wide in places. Please add to the input of this blade, hope to get a refund and the forum members input will help out a lot with this. THanks

sorry but its still a horrible fake blade we dont need to see a blunt edge

I agree with the guys on this one, looks like it was made last week and the crossgrain as already stated looks very odd to say the least.
