Anyone know anything about these? (of course you do)

Any searching here just brought up the Klon Katana

Repaired one of these yesterday after I got the melted glue "goop" off.
According to the Effects Database it's supposed to be similar to a Zendrive?

Seems like a typical Tubescreamer type, 8 pin IC was sanded, but it looks pretty close to the schem/layout of the Zendrive I found here.

It's done all the time. I remeber seeing some info about what pedals and brands are clones of others.

You will be astounded.
