Fake K. signature
Not that it affects the sound or anything, but this signature isn't real:

Re: Fake K. signature

Re: Fake K. signature
Really good to see such a nice, clean signature on a cymbal that has just been cleaned a bit. I guess he "restored" the signature to it's former glory.
EDIT: Snagged for the purpose of showing how not to do it....

Re: Fake K. signature
It's not his grammar that sickens me. It's his literacy ... or lack thereof. And yes, it has everything to do with this cymbal and it's suspect script. Maybe you don't see the connection, and that's ok. Some will. Some won't. No biggie. It's a big ol' world filled with lots of people. We can't all be on the same page at the same time.
