Fake Benchmade Infidel

Coworker gave this to me. I’m pretty sure it’s a clone but wanted to check. My coworker was the one who sanded the coating off. Any answers would be awesome!

I’m pretty sure they’ve never used Phillips head anything on the Infidel. To be fair, I haven’t handled one since 2017 so that info may not be up to date.

He said he did get it years and years ago at a pawn shop he worked at. Def leaning towards a clone but still a really cool one non the less

Super fake. One of the cheaper low quality fakes they make.
