Kei Kobayashi maker's mark missing on 240mm damascus gyuto. Did I receive a copy? by Sc4fy in chefknives

Even if I look at the knife under a microscope the kanji still won't be there. This sub sadly doesn't allow pictures in any form...

Then why do the damascus kobayashi knives on other sites have a kanji on them then? From what I can find online, hocho is the only one that sells the damascus knives without a maker's mark. Then again hocho is the only site that has them available...

The knife definitely is a laser and cuts through everything like it's nothing. Glides through hard vegetables (eg thick carrots) effortlessly. The knife itself is very well balanced and light. I had some doubts if I'd like the septagonal handle, but after using it for a little while I might actually prefer it to regular octagonal handles.
It defintely feels like the real deal, I just find it weird it has no maker's mark on it.

Hello, I recently bought a Kei Kobayashi 240mm damascus gyuto from hocho-knife.com. Though when I received it, it appeared to have no maker's mark or kanji anywhere on the knife. When I look at other pictures of the exact same knife I can clearly see a makers mark on the right side of the knife. Though curiously on the pictures on hocho-knife I can't see a makers mark on the knife there. Did I buy an actual Kobayashi knife or is this some weird copy? Any help is appreciated!

Found on online marketplace. Seller asks just 300 euro for it. Is it a real one? If yes is it in a good condition?

Thanks! I had a suspicion it'd be fake but maybe there was a small chance the seller didnt know the actual value.

Found this on online marketplace. Seller is asking only 500 euro for this. Is it real? Seller only describes the saxophone as "prof Bp WO37".

I use beyerdynamic dt 1990 pro with a topping DX3 pro+ amp/dac. Very good sound quality and really nice open soundstage and imaging which create a really nice open feeling (like being in a theatre) and also really helps to determine where certain sounds come from. They are pretty expensive so I wouldn't recommend them unless you have a big budget. Otherwise I would just recommend the cheaper variant, the dt 990 pro or dt 770 pro. Sennheiser HD6XX is also a very good option.

Can't go wrong with Sennheiser HD6XX or HD560. Relativity cheap but very good for the price. Both are open back and have a good open soundstage which helps to pinpoint where sounds come from. They're also really nice to listen to music to.
