These sellers probably wouldn't know what Victorinox is.
They probably think the factory where they get there cheap knives from is called Victorinox  :facepalm:

Can they be reported directly to Victorinox? It seems like they have a vested interest.

I emailed Victorinox with links of fake knives(with Vic logo on them) before and they tell me they forward the links to there legal team or something like that.

They cant do anything to stop the fake trade in China, but they should be able to pressure ebay.  I'm willing to bet there are zero real SAKS for sale from people with sellers accounts in China.
PM me or email sakmodder [at] gmail . com if you are looking for custom SAK work.

Not sure if its a fake but I bet it is:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330769726996&clk_rvr_id=369306291219&item=330769726996&lgeo=1&vectorid=229529

11 bids and at US 41. 6 mins to go.

The cork screw looks strange. I think that could be a real photo. Not sure.
But look at the small little photos. You can see small differences(very hard to see).

and I think that fact thats it China and has silly descriptions is enough to know its fake.

Sword
Pull the cork drill
Small screwdriver also to be a Cross screw
Drilling cone
Forceps
Unloading hook device
Nail file/ wheres this?
Remove the wire tool

Could be real :whistle:

Bump.

This one keeps coming back: www.ebay.com/itm/170893011401

Seller says it's not a Victorinox (duh!). But I'm guessing it's still a counterfeit item that should be reported.
You should seriously visit vicfan.com. All the hoopy froods are doing it.

You'd think that it must be tough to sell Vic knives if your location is in china. Anyone that was fooled once, sure wouldnt buy again.  Also arent most people aware of the china fake trade?  It IS really annoying though.

Although the seller mentions this is not Victorinox, the knife and its box display the counterfeited Victorinox logo AND the opened knife image is a stolen Victorinox Craftsman stock product image. And we do not know what is on the blade tang...   :twak:

This ones does not state is a Victorinox, but it has the logo in the photo.
I doubt it is real but you never know.

Victorinox from Deal Extreme are real and they are a Chinese store.

But he does admit it's not a real Vic. Besides the knife, you also get a real "cool" box" & an 11 in 1 survival card!!
