We bought a couple of wood knife blocks full of Wusthof Trident knives. The wife misplaced one of the six steak knives. Haven't seen it in years. Tried finding a replacement on the internet. They're white handled. Hard to find.
Talked to Wusthof US, and they sent me one free. Same number on it 4068-0.
Very nice of them, except it came in the mail yesterday, and the knife is not shaped exactly like the other five. The handle is way thicker and more robust. Sitting in slot 6 of the steak knife section of the wood block, it looks out of place. Don't have the heart to tell them it doesn't match.
So I'll use it, due to its apparent more hefty nature, as a small cutting knife instead. Still hoping to find a 1992 era white Wusthof Trident 4068-0.
Would you tell them about the mismatch or not? I never would have thought that they'd have gone to the trouble and expense to change their knife blanks, or the molds for the handles.
