Anyone have an idea how to read them or what they mean? Any website to look at that FOR SURE has that info? I've looked at most every site under a search of "Wusthof" and haven't found any info. Wusthof dealers - any help here?
Thanks!

Hi Dick,
Etched on the side of each blade is an elongated "tic tac toe" grid. (Left to right= space - vertical line - space - vertical line - space. Top to bottom = space - horizontal line - space - horizontal line - space - horizontal line - space) Then some of the blocks are filled in. It's different on each model of knife dependent on blade length, style - "boning", "fillet", etc.
I'm sure it's a code. And want to know if there's some site or literature to explain it. It could be coding such as style, length, who knows - hardness, or maybe a coded "manufactured by Hans" type thing. Any info is much appreciated!
John
