I know this one should be in the repro forum, but I found it amusing, and I thought you guys might get a good laugh also. It looks like the super-rare Eickhorn "chipmunk" instead of the squirrel! Big Grin Big Grin http://cgi.ebay.com/SS-WORLD-WAR-II-NAZI-GERMANY-FOLDIN...QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Wow, nice piece,
Looks like the rare Eickhorn "preggo chipmunk" mark. Maybe it is the "beer belly munk", hard to tewll from the pics.
These repros just wont DIE!!!

It's not even repro - it's a fantasy knife.

Don�t laugh at me; I would like to own one of these. I do not collect repros but have always though they were neat. The problem is whenever I have seen them at shows they were being sold as original Mad
Best Wishes,
Bob

Now's your chance to score one of these beauties!
Quality Pakistani steel that won't cut a warm t*rd.

Walter has a good point, repro of what? Fantasy is the best way to put it. I wonder what the hell they were thinking when they made these? They made an effort to include markings that are found on real pieces, just that there are not any "real" pieces of this type. Strange. Maybe someone won this at a carnival game somewhere...

Are they all made in Pakistan or are the good ones made someplace else?
Thanks!

I don't know where they are made, but I know that Pakistani steel isn't very good. I got loaded one night and was watching some knife sale on T.V.. Being loaded, I jumped at the rare opportunity to buy a whole bunch of knives for a steal of a price. By the time I was sober, these little Pakistani beauties showed up at my door. It almost seemed like the blades were cast out of lead. They wouldn't even make good sinkers!

I know I bid $19.99 on one of those a month or so ago, because I just wanted one as well, feeling sure I'd get it, and it went for over $200.00.
Kinda wish I had a hundred now.....
