At first they said "Yes, is made in Taiwan." They acknowledged it.

"We didn't know about counterfeit.Can you send a pics? " It sounded like they thought I found a counterfeit knife.

I'm going to send pics of the box and the knife and we'll see what they'll say. You are confusing me.
They are definitely counterfeit. You can buy these "AKC" Blades anywhere from $10-$20, I have & they are cool for click therapy but not authentic AKC sanctioned blades.

That is what I'm trying to find out. I paid $50 for mine. I thought it was their budget line. It's well made.

Same pics I sent to them:

Ah, finally online:

Sorry to you get stuck for the $50 but if you like it and think it's worth it that's what matters. Next time ask questions here before you buy. Check out Dhgate and you will see plenty of counterfeit knives. May help you in the long run.

There are many Italian type knives made in Taiwan. I am sure the Campolins are well aware of that as are most collectors. What the Campolins may not know is that some of these knives have counterfeit markings that infringe on their trademarks. That may be why they want to see a picture to see exactly what those marks look like. What other scenarios reasonably fit this set of facts?

The real model is Asian as stated on a well respected site:

It says made in Taiwan.
