The many varieties of Dave Grohl's signature

Lately, I've been digging through hundreds of Grohl signatures on the Internet. I've found it difficult to decide what is real or fake due to the different versions of his signature. Below are all Grohl signatures that have been authenticated through PSA/DNA. Most of his signatures are similar, but some of his signatures really do throw me off. Are all of these really legit? I'm not looking at purchasing any of the signatures below, but I am trying to get an understanding of the versions of his signature. I'd appreciate any advice on picking a legit Grohl signature.

His signature is very easily forged, the best bet would try and get a Foo fighters album with the whole band to deficient rate. Some photos look ok but I could copy the sig.

I have other fuller signatures and variations that I can dig out and add to this signature study. Thank you for compiling it, very good!

Sounds great, thanks! The 5th and last signature are the most common on eBay.

Here is one of my signed Nirvana CDs with Dave's full 'David' signature. He signed with 'David' also duri early Foo Fighters days and out a heart around it!

Here are some authentic Dave Grohl autographs.

The last one is signed with a love sign.

It's obvious that he is capable of signing different at anytime, but there appear to be a couple of signatures he uses more often for quick IP autographs. All of the examples have similar characteristics to other known/authenticated signatures, but the lack of consistency can make it difficult for an everyday collector or fan. Do these factors increase the need for a trusted third party authenticator with his signature?
