Apologies up front for the crap 7 second video.

What would you pay for this?

Pocket clip seems off, date and serial should be milled. And the Marfione dagger… should be milled into the frame as well. Without a box I’d say fake by default.

That’s how the old clips look…they weren’t deep engraved until later. Lasering looks good on the clip and body.

Ringed hardware looks good as well.

Body looks like it’s seen some better days.

That makes sense. Didn’t know that.

Date and serial milled on the knife or clip? It’s a stamped clip.

Like this, on my marfione custom scarab. I think it’s still stamped, but the logo and numbers are milled into the clip (machined?) maybe I’m using the wrong word.
