I don't have my old Celebrated FBU anymore, went to a good home. So I cannot remember for sure, but I think the tang logo was stamped, not etched. Appears to be etched on the fungasi .......... :shrug:

Damn that etching looks awful!
Apparently not to some. It's already up past $350 on ebay.
I have 10 of these blades, and they are all stamped - the one in ScienceGuy's OP just leapt out as a complete fake as soon as I saw it.
Seller should be clearly stating that it has been relabeled IMO....it looks horrible in my opinion, crappy job to say the least.
Here are two - clearly stamped:

Well to be accurate the originals are not stamped on the blade face, that is an etching. Some of the earlier ones still had a stamp on the tang, while most of them have also an etching there.
Agreed, have a few with the stamp on the tang, like this you mean?
