You can see the faint image of Filarmonica on the blade.

Yeah, ive watched that sellers stuff for at least a couple of years, so i dont doubt its a filly (she does sell some pretty odd ones though).

What worries me about these blades is if the person doing the grinding ruined the temper of the blades. What do you guys think?
