    I keep seeing ebay auctions for Benchmade AFO II drop point partially serated for $150. Multiple sellers who typically have multiple for sale. So I'm wondering if someone in China is making a fake version now or if someone has "acquired" a few from .gov supply chain. Whats your guys thoughts? Even with Leo/mil discount they are more than $150 from Benchmade.

    That’s right around dealer cost from a distributor, so if one were direct with BM, they’d get a few more $$’s off than that, so it’s possible it’s legit, although against Benchmade policy.

    ^^^ this in a nutshell especially since Benchmade cracked down on MAO pricing several years ago (IMHO outpricing themselves in the market)
