This tool is on ebay, is it an original?

Hi, texture looks good, but there is not enough detail to be sure.

The cutout should have slightly larger edges and the thickness of the tool can't be judged. Nominal thickness of original tools is some 2.5 mm. Reproductions tend to be thicker.

Also, the thumb part is not visible. It should be smooth, not ribbed or engraved.

Hi,

It looks real enough to me. Although measuring the thickness would be wise.

Thanks I bought two of these, both marked se63 the diff. is one mark is smaller than the other, If I understand what I searched out, there were two marks, one smaller then the other, if I am correct is one more valuable than the other, or not really, just goes to a different date gun rig? thanks for the help.
