Chinese Imperial Two Handed Dao

Dao - Mine - Fake - What makes it fake? What would someone think it was authentic?

A friend paid a huge price for "Imperial Two Handed Dao". He brought it to me. I quietly let him hold and view one of my authentic dao. (see the last picture with the green scabbard)

He immediately realized his was fake. The online dealer refused return it. He left it with me because he was so disgusted.

Where it is "wrong?"
