If it ships from R.O.C. that would be a good sign it's fake. It does look good in the pic. I couldn't connect to the site.

Different from the etch on the knife in your link,Petey, here is an old thread showing another fake AKC etch/stamp side by side with the real one. I bet quite a few have these fakes from over 10 years ago and don't even know it....

I did not see an AKC stamp on the knife. Only Made in Italy; I think it may not be an AKC.

Perhaps someone with more experience can give their opinion.

lol...they even offer this one as ACK (Instead of AKC)...HAS to be a typo? You're right John, I don't even think it was meant to be an AKC.

If my memory serves me right I believe I’ve heard of other typos on PVK site. Buyers beware!
