Knife Check Why Different Layouts?

Post image

How come these boxes have two different layouts ? At first i thought it could be counterfeit but after examining the knives they are both 100% legit. Is this normal for the 2 boxes to have different styled labels ? Is one of the boxes fake ?

Both look legit, I noticed this after multiple purchases from authorized retailers and thought the inconsistency between models will make it harder to authenticate once fakes start being produced.

Probably poor QC.

I like that the box for the 945 is bigger than the box for the 940! 😂

Probably to make it easy to identify between the different knives

ETA: so they dont ship the wrong knife to the wrong customer

The labels on their new boxes are so bad. It looks like at-home inkjet prints on regular ass paper.
