All,
First of all, Id like to thank everyone that has pointed out knock offs of CRK products. Combating counterfeiting of our products is an important objective at Chris Reeve Knives. Counterfeiters mislead you, our customers, illegally profit at the expense of CRK, and affect the entire economy through lost revenues and taxes. Without a doubt, the high quality materials, exceptional reliability, critical design aspects, and workmanship embodied in genuine Chris Reeve Knives products are greatly degraded in counterfeit products. We have observed counterfeit quality to be consistently poor, and such knives could, therefore, endanger the user by failing in a critical use situation.
The counterfeiting ranges from unethical, but legal copying, to illegal intellectual property infringement. Id encourage continued reporting of any CRK knock offs that you see by sending us an email at crkinfo@chrisreeve.com, so we can investigate.
Thank you for your continued support!
Dave
