Hello. Ive discovered a Thiers Issard 6/8 Silver Steel with Red Stamina Scales, but I noticed that the TI brand on the tang is not engraved. Is this a fake TI? Instead it looked like a fading black stamp.

I don't think it's fake. I have a TI and several Dovo Best Quality, and one Henckels Friodur with their logo etched on the shank rather than stamped into the steel. It's probably just a cost cutting measure.
I don't think its fake. Some of the newer razors have the name either etched or laser engraved. It is probably cheaper and quicker.
I guess I should've done a little research before I posted. I was just a little curious about the blade. Thank you guys so much! This forum is great!
thebigspendur, if you can read this ******FACEPALM***** .....small world, ima just shoot myself
It's definitely different than the one I have, but it wouldn't be surprising if it's another variation:

We're only guessing the reason. I'm disappointed and hope the laser doesn't wear off.Quote:
