Wow that is a nice blade did you find that one !!!!

Paint, not a personal find.I bought a shadowbox that you hang on the wall at a flea market it was full of feathers, fake pipes, fake artifacts ect. The etley was center in the box. I thought at the time it might be real, but wasn't sure until I took it home. Worked out great as I resold the box for original purchase price and kept the etley.

So you think that happened to be authentic why?
Have you tried rubbing it with alcohol?
Or acetone

Amen!

Those Etley's usually have some good size to them, and that looks like a typical specimen.

Gator, looks good under the scope, and a few collectors I showed it to thought it looked good. What don't look right about it to you?

 

[GatorBoy]

I wasn't even commenting on the look of it.
Just the fact that it was in a box with obvious imposters.

Looks authentic to me when I blow it up...

Try a taste test, lots of times you can tell if it had an acid bath that wau..
