I got this one off of ebay for $25 shipped. It was a variety I still needed, as my six other Ming knives all had an angular back. Curved backed knives are noticably scarcer than their angled back counterparts, and they are generally viewed to be of earlier make. Now the only knife type I need is the Boshan knife. (Wish me luck and $3000, because I am going to need it.)

It even came with an old ID slip!

Angled back for comparison.

By looking for coins , I found a seller in Germany but nice Chinese coins and knives and not to expensive . My question is : is this money much faked or can we buy it without to much risk . albert

@ant

You could post links to what you are looking at, and I will give my opinions. Yes, these coins are very highly counterfeited, so knowing your seller before you are very familiar with these coins is a MUST.

Also, NEVER buy scarce rare stuff from China or from an ebay seller named best666666. 99% of those are counterfeit.
