Just received this from a Seller on Amazon. Add says new and the product seems original, but box is beaten up and knife has and unknown (to me) marking on the blade.
Thanks

There are not enough pictures for anyone to be sure, but it looks legitimate from those posted above. The mark to the right of the hole is Sal's maker's mark. It is a stylized S A L.

Thank you! I was concerned because that Sal's mark wasn't showing on any internet picture and I didn't know it. Then I found the same mark hidden on the handle of an Native III that I have for more than 10 years.

Sal's maker's mark on the Endura, Delica etc. are a relatively new addition. I haven't seen any confirmed counterfeits with the maker's mark yet.
