Boker Plus Armed Forces

[Omega Man]

Well, the pictures are convincing, but looking closley the thumbstuds and hardware are different:
Their AFT-1: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6243
Their AFT-2: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6212
The II is a little longer. Check these out, could be a nice buy. I have the Boker Armed Forces Tanto I on my list of wants, so it could be worth the risk.
Whattya think??

its ok ikf you like ripoffs, worse than copies are these, counterfeits...to use the boker name...just messed up in my opinion...here is a pic I just made showing just a few of the differences...the logo, the pivot scre, the guard, and the thumbstud are all different...Its obviously a rip off, and for almost $10, why not double that price and buy the real deal? Copies are one thing,. but to use a fake logo, just wrong not to mention illegal...Same as when the "surefires" came out...Just wrong...

I know, I know, it HAS to be too good to be true. Atleast I had my pipedream for a day.

Well..... I kinda feel like a fink, but I just bought the smaller copy of the AFT-I. I'm just so curious. Plus if I like it, I can totally justify buying the real thing, and throwing the fake in my glovebox or bookbag.
Now, did ya see the fake Benchmade too....?
And of coarse, pics to come.

Re: Boker Plus Armed Forces at Dealextreme!?!?

Interesting I cant seem to figure it out too? the real thign is a linerlock, the fake looks to be a linerlock too, but the picture of the spine of back of the knife does not show the liner? in the open position the liner should be shifted over to support the blade but I dont see anythgin? Almost like this one has it missing, lol...who knows, but good call with the 154cm, another bogus stamp!
