Thank you for exposing the fake.great detail on the difference between the 2.the first voyager I ordered was a fake.and the only reason I knew it was due to a video showing the fake vs the real. so thank you for this helpful video.
You should do a CS style weight lifting comparison between the 2 to what they fail at. If the clone is close to the OG than the clone is worth it by far !
That one is easy to spot. Some of the fakes are quite good!!! There was a Four Max "Elite" on ebay and the only way to tell was the grind didn't come all the way up to the grip. It stopped and curved down to the edge about a quarter inch from the grip. The real ones, the grind comes right up to the grip almost to the point where it goes under the grip. Oh, and then they blur the pictures. There's a lot of fakes. I've gotten to the point I won't even buy some things from eBay. Cold Steel knives is one thing.
I'm really curious about how they hold up. I have a aus10 model that's like 3-4 years old. I've never had to sharpen it. The most I've done is run it on ceramic rods and leather. What really gets me about these fake ones is why. I mean when you know its a fake. The real ones are not that expensive. I understand buying a clone like busse that cost $600 an the clone is $70 with a sheath. But saving $30-40 bucks doesn't seem worth it. Great job showing the differences because there is evil people out there. Your video shows they aren't factory seconds either because nothing matches.
@@kenmastersmasterif you actually watched the video you’d realize coldsteel only uses one type of pivot. Also coldsteel only made a few blackout rahja2 none had that smooth texture. An they were DLC not black paint. So again who is blind maybe your just a little slow😊
@@richardhenry1969 This is one of the old AUS8 versions. Its not a DLC coating its a black teflon coating. Dumb hillbilly. He got 2 real ones. One old stock and a new design. Neither is fake
Thanks very much, I ordered a fake one but hasn't received it yet. from their photos I see its definitely a fake one as in your video. But the price is just USD20, so I will give it a try and use it as a cheap tool.
How you like it. I always wanted one but for some reason I really would have preferred the old model with the smooth handle. I have a few cold steels from that era I really liked
Ragazzi io ho un fake e un originale...adesso vi dico,e vi assicuro,che il fake è davvero ben fatto è resistentissimo lavora benissimo, è un coltello formidabile con una resistenza unica,io l'ho sottoposto a molti stress e lavori anche di macellazione di cindiale ,ottimo.
У меня было два ножа "Spartan" - оригинал и подделка. Могу сказать, что китайцы отвратительно сделали замок, там были страшные люфты, и замок мог даже закрыться под нагрузкой. Все остальное, кроме замка, было терпимо за эту цену.
CS has the R2 for $185 currently and I bought 3 clones that are very strong and EDC one and have never had any problems with any of them and all 3 were were less than $30. So go ahead and throw your money away because the fact is the people making the clones are making a PROFIT. What do you think CS is doing? ROBBING YOU !!!
@@stefthorman8548 lmao, and how phucin' old are you to even use lmao's? or you're just a kiddo banned on Google? You can compare real lock and it's fixtures anywhere. Oh, stuhp, yo can not. You were banned on Google though.
Dam! I have a fake one, but this will still do major damage to human flesh. Thanks for the review.

You returned a knife because of what some guy said over TH-cam with no evidence? Sounds legit
EXCELLENT!!!!!! Video.. I just got the rajah 2 and I'm very impressed, it's a solid beast of a weapon/ Tool
The fake doesn't look too bad, sure it opens roughly but at a fraction of the price that's fine. If only they did the espada xl too..
Thanks very helpful my Black Talon II also from Cold Steel arrived in the same black box with bubble wrap and it’s the real deal!
talk about a fragile looking blade...
Thank you. I now know I ordered a real one.
Thank you for making this video!
Note the fake box had no tri-ad lock written on it and the black blade on the fake one failed to label the steel type ex: AUS 10
Excellent comparison.
Спасибо что сделали разбор , со дня на день получу этот нож . Видео было полезным
Oh Hell! I got duped on eBay. I was wondering why it did not open as easily as those shown on TikTok. Now I know.
Perhaps you are not deceived. You just bought an old version, because Cold Steel changes the design periodically.
Me too!
Like a new motor. Ya just need to run her some and wear in the piston!
Internal is so similar. I wonder what the blade material would be like in the clone.
420 at the best...

They're not fake, one model is from 10 years ago the other is current.. Blind leading the blind in here
@@kenmastersmasterwhat are you smoking he said one was fake. Like the ones you get on Ali express. You must be very slow or just clueless.

我們買Cold Steel 的折刀就是為了Tri-AD lock ，我用假刀不敢大力揮砍。仿品的鎖溝角度怪怪的，感覺不可靠。

Get a real Rajah II if you haven't already, you will not regret the purchase 😎🕶️😎
Very informative
Thank you
Wish the Cloners would make a Spartan XL

Great video! Thank you!!!
they updated the box again recently
I’m sorry but all the cold steel knives I’ve bought came in the fake box! Direct from the manufacturer! So ???
That is the old box design
These videos are for morons. He's comparing new to old stock
Yay! I got a real one!
Very informative 😎

Well, this saved me from ordering Chinese fake garbage. Thanks.
Thanks
There are several fakes over on ebay...do you think they come from Taiwan or china... Thanks for this information...
Music is so loud I can’t hear what you are saying.
This video is all about repeating "this one". Both knives are anal fake by the way.
lmao, and how did you come to that conclusion? the lock on the real is clearly real. or are you just an troll?
@@stefthorman8548 lmao, and how phucin' old are you to even use lmao's? or you're just a kiddo banned on Google? You can compare real lock and it's fixtures anywhere. Oh, stuhp, yo can not. You were banned on Google though.

That's fine.The fake knives also copy the real box.Old coldsteel boxes were just like that
