To tell if a Tsuna is a knock-off or real it's very simple to tell. The real one has an extra ring at the ends of the ring that hooks onto the double sided hooks. The knot is also tied down so it doesnt lose its shape. The rope itself should be a very smooth silky thread and not rough to the touch. As for packaging, the silk fabric of the holder should be smooth to the touch when u rub the fabric together, and the black box should have well defined creases and is stiffer/harder than the fake one. I knew a guy that had a fake one, I will take his and take a picture of the two to compare.

In short, the meanings are,
Tsuna= protection
Fusa= good fortune

So if you buy a fake you, you're not gonna get any of that!

the knot is not tied and held with the straps that all tsunas come with, plus it doesnt come with the rings to hang on the hangers. sorry for flamming but im just watching out for my good CL members. or what ^^ vu said.

Mine does not come with the straps you guys are talking about... Bought mine years ago from JunctionGS who was the OG JP vendor on here... This is an old pict of John's car... I know the products have changed over the years, for instant, when the Fusa first came out they did not have a clasp and now they all come with them... Just saying.

Also notice that sheen that is in the pic above from the flash, the gold one posted here is a matte finish as it is rough twine .
I got chopped with a fake one 2 and there is a big difference .
way back when models may have been different but they were still quality .
The glass hooks are also different but I don't remember why .

Not sure about Fakes, but I remembered that a bunch of people had issues with getting their stuff, took them months...

I don't think people back in 03-05 were knocking off JP stuff, maybe nowadays as their stuff gets more mainstream...
