Welcome to the forum.

I am not an expert on Explorer models so take this as you will. I don't see anything that stands out to me as being a fake and the SN# checks out as being built in Qing Dao in Sept. of 2008.

Others should chime in soon with their own opinion.

Did they make Korina in black? I thought they would be natural finish
