DHS W968 - help to confirm fake or genuine

[KostovTT]

Hi guys
I have tried 2 W968 and would like to get one of them.

1. The first one Handle is very very comfortable rounded #12 from 2021. Box not available cannot be found. I like this blade since it feels softer. And I do believe this one is definitely genuine. And I probably will go for it.

2. The second one Handle is thinner like the AliExpress ones for 30$ and feels harder just like them. But it has the box. Also there is additional number of the left hand side of the handle which never seen this before but after research I saw in Korea some also have K001 for example ( official distributor)

What are your initial thoughts and impressions?

There are so many fakes one out there.

Both of them look genuine for me. If the first one feels good and fine for you, it really depends on your intend to resell it later. If you can get the first at a good price, because the box is missing and you do not intent to resell it later, than go for the first.

If you want to be save(r) and plan to resell it, go for the one with the box. Do the measurements of the blade (weight and thickness) match with ones on the box?

I am also considering to buy S968 which is almost brand new. But not sure if will suits my game. They say will be easy to play with
