This is not a Harsey knife, I did not make or design that knife.
This knife pictured is a counterfeit, the signature has been counterfeited.
This is a rip off, I think it's from Communist China.

Sorry, I was just commenting that the first thing that jumped out at me was the sheath was contoured to the shape of the blade. There is no way to get that curved knife into the curved sheath.
I would think that would be a more obvious tip off to a potential buyer.
is it too late to be reported as a scam?

It's one thing to forge a design but it seems worse to forge a signature.......can ebay do anything about that or the Feds since it's an imported item with a forged signature?? That could lead to other legal issues related to identity theft??

AMEN to THAT!
SO SORRY Bill. 
While imitation may be dubbed as the highest form of flattery; I can only imagine your personal and professional concerns at actually having someone affix your signature onto what is dubbed a "custom piece".
Knowing your leather work I thought the sheath may have been aftermarket - but that signature is a real eye catcher
I wish you the highest success in catching these folks Buddy. It is tremendously unfair that there is such little control over such misrepresentations.
