Andy, why do you think this degen is a copy?

Is it possible to open the head-screw without using big force?

Does it show a maker-mark or any other marking?

I thought it was soft in details and the ss runes looks to thick.
I havent seen it in real life only those pictures my friend sent me

It does look like the ones sold by World Wide Arms,they are unmarked,here is mine.John

[collecter]

Grip.

[normandie]

It has no maker mark, no ss inspection marks and its made of nickel

[collecter]

These are no longer available from World Wide Arms,I think they were made in Spain,the retail price was £150.John

[normandie]

So its a fake then?

Hi Fredrik,I think this a WWA replica,going by the quality of the scabbard throat fittings,I think they are thinner compared to originals and I would expect SS acceptance stamps,but this is only my opinion.John

[AndyC]

And I still hold to my first opinion that this one is a fake.
if I am wrong sorry but I Think that I am right on this one
