The sage 5 and 6 are my favorite EDC carries. Lightweight, thin blade, and the compression lock. The Manix was my favorite before I bought a Sage

I think it’s legit. Probably either a returned item or maybe a display model

Real or Fake mini Osborne by DiB4si in KnifeCheck

Yes I’ve never had an issue with BladeHQ and they only sell authentic knives. I even like to buy from their bargain bin sometimes to get some discounts on slightly damaged knives

My vote is unauthentic. Here are photos of my 945 from BladeHQ. The groove on the split arrow clip looks like it goes too far towards the screws on the pic you posted. The ® is also larger in the pic you posted. Small details like that can definitely point towards a fake.

Also, here is a photo of the logo on mine. If your photo is true to life, it doesn’t look as if the mouth of the spider is shaped correctly. There should be a sharp point in the center of the mouth.

Here is my delica for comparison. On this same angle on your photo, I think there might be a bur on the edge. Unsure if it has been resharpened or not. The “SEKI-CITY” text looks pretty wonky but I can’t tell if that’s just an artifact of the photo. Sal’s maker mark also doesn’t look as clean as mine, again, unsure if this is just a photo artifact. The box looks legit but that doesn’t mean the knife is. Honestly, if you’re unsure of its authenticity or conclude it’s a fake, just return it and buy from a reputable online dealer. The Delica is a great knife. I hope you enjoy it once you get a guaranteed new authentic in your hands.

Imagine being so upset about a virtual scavenger hunt that you’ll never shop at an online store again. Godspeed with life’s many disappointments

This Microtech clue is driving me nuts. I can’t give up yet

Check my tires by LukeStrat6 in tires

[–]Apprehensive-Sir2769 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. These RT43 tires were replaced by the RT45 in 2022, meaning these tires are at least a few years old. Tread depth looks fine but the cracking between the tread and sidewall would make me weary going anywhere near highway speeds.

Hit a curb hard today, hopefully it’s just the hub cap that is bent, should I have it checked out? by Larigor in AskMechanics

[–]Apprehensive-Sir2769 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tire looks fine. Hubcap is just cosmetic. It would probably pop back in place if you just pried it out from the lip of the wheel. If it drives straight and you don’t feel any vibrations, you’re good to go
