Did anyone else get a sheet of paper from Spyderco in the box saying that you purchased a sage 1 not sage 2?

No. I think they may have given you the wrong paper, at least you got the right knife!

It's the standard deal. Mine was legit, I can't see why others would be fake. 200$ is about right, up to 230$ online. The 400$ MSRP is typical for Spyderco, and if you try to buy from their website, or in a bricks-and-mortar store, that's what you'll pay. But any knife-seller online will be in the aforementioned price range. Despite all the concern about fakes, I wouldn't worry about it when you're buying from Amazon directly. Even if it's an Amazon marketplace seller, all you have to do is check their feedback rating; if they've got thousands of transactions and a 95%-or-higher feedback, it'll be fine. A seller that tries to sell fakes will be banned pretty fast. It's the standard deal. Mine was legit, I can't see why others would be fake. 200$ is about right, up to 230$ online.

My blades are wrapped in blue paper, though they could have changed the packaging... The Personna stamp on the blades themselves is occasionally a bit smeared. That seems normal to me.

Excellent question when it comes to the paramilitary 2 I bought it through amazon not a third party vendor due to the fact that it is a commonly counterfeited knife and Amazon is very reputable and from my understanding buys directly from the vendor not to mention amazon sells it way cheaper than a third party vendor would. As far as I know about factory second I'm more than confident amazon would state it in the description of the item if it where a refurbished or returned item or damage item furthermore amazon places these items in its amazon warehouse inventory where if you visit will give a detailed description of any defects such as a minor scratches etc. Of course I can't speak for third party vendors in which I personally avoid completely if the item I am purchasing is a commonly counterfeited item unless of course books, clothes and other items. I personally also inspected the knives I received from amazon and so far no sign's of it being a fake or factory second. Hope this helps.

Yes, the Sage 2 is a wonderful EDC especially in an office environment (add sage 1 clip and it disappears). I just wish it had a bit more grip on one scale...a g10 hybrid would be rad.

Sorry man, just looked at the picture myself. This picture has changed since I bought mine, which was a non-serrated and the picture previously showed a non-serrated blade.

Don't know about the police but I do own both the Sage 2 and PM2. I generally prefer to EDC the PM2 but if I'm wanting something a little less "tactical" looking I will often pocket the Sage for an evening. I truly love the utter simplicity of the design....

Nope, the two notebooks that I've purchased are identical. One bought last year and one this month.

The only way to know, would be if you either knew the date it was made, or if you got someone to examine the knife before shipping. Since this is Amazon, I can tell you that's unfortunately not going to happen, sorry. I can tell you that at least some Amazon customers, beginning in December, have received the adjustable pivot Manix 2 Translucent, but that's no guarantee.

The one I got did, but I have grown weary of buying from non-amazon suppliers. You really never know if it's coming from their 'marketplace'. Truthfully, I am not sure a person can answer that unless they are looking over your shoulder and that is the CIA's job, not mine.

Yes, it's comes in an original spyderco factory box, with warranty and info paper.

Also, did yours come in a box? Mine just had a plastic sleeve on the blade, no box. Seems fishy to me. All the other Victorinox knives I ordered came in Victorinox boxes/blister packs.

I ordered at the old price and got the wrong pad. Got a refund and then the price jumped. I found it at Sportsman's Warehouse cheaper. I felt ripped off by Amazon because of giving me a refund and then jumping the price.

I had the same issue and I am kinda disappointed at these tactics. I specifically ordered 7 rather than 7B and got 7B from beach camera. I wrote today just to let my fellow patrons of amazon know that you are not alone done in by these shady practices.

Received my lcp Pearce grips from Amazon 4/2015 and there were two in the package. Fast service too. .... jsp

It was listed with the copter on Amazon along with a spare battery. On of those "purchasers also bought" things. I don't know if is was Amazons mistake or the shippers. The blade guard was shipped from China, and was only a couple of dollars. I probably won't bother sending it back. The address is in Chinese!

I read all the info the seller provided , and usually it says which one it is somewhere. Once got a pre paid by mistake and i went back to the page i ordered it from, and it said that it was a pre payed I must have not been careful when I ordered that one.Or you could contact the seller .
