Just stumbled in this sold listing, it's a few months old but poor soul who purchased it didn't know it's a fake:

What makes you say that? Any details?

That's sad. The bottom of the blade edges are too round. I'm so glad I passed on a raw one a couple years back at a card shop. I was so about to pull the trigger but I was still hesitant that the same issue was going on with that one.

Blades are smoothly curved where real one had obvious angle. The surface is smooth where real one has rougher texture.

I actually made a video on this:

Interesting. I’ll take a look. Thanks man!

Several I see online look the same.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think they're one of the more relatively common fakes. At the very least they were outed prior to many other faked set, uh, "revelations."

does that mean the PSA slab is fake as well?

Or it could mean PSA wasn't well trained on this fake and was passed through the grading system.
