I was really looking forward to the "other" sykes fairburn dagger thread and then disappointed when I clicked on it and found it closed.

I wouldn't mind getting one of these but it looks like the market is completely flooded with reproductions that include in many instances the appropriate markings. So it looks like something to pretty much stay away from or simply buy a repro knowing it's a repro and not paying the extra price to get a repro.

Any thoughts?

How do you tell the real one from a fake, I guess complicating the entire matter is the original manufacturer is making them again.
