    Hello,
    what do you think, it's real or fake?

    Even if it is a cheap chinese knockoff of a real one, then yes, it is a real chinese knife.

    Sorry, my English is not the best. Do you think it's fake?

    I was just saying it is probably made in china, but do not know if it is old or a new reproduction

    Fake. Edge is too smooth for it to be genuine. When dealing with Chinese numismatics, ensure that you pay more to get genuine examples from a reputable dealer and has full refund policy if they are deemed to be counterfeits.

    I recall a educational TV show in the late 1970's that reported that Chinese manufacturers of fakes caused them to "age" by burying them in sand and urinating on them to achieve their patina.

    I concur with GX. Fake.
