950 RIFT fake or real?

I bought a new 950 RIFT from a private seller. It seems real. However I noticed the sticker on the box used different letter case to a box I saw on a Youtube review.My box reads " 950S Osborne RIFT Axis" whereas the sticker on the Youtube box was all in upper case ie "950-1401 OSBORNE RIFT AXIS"

Is this a sign of counterfeiting or just differences in factory packaging?

Any Benchmade folk out there that can help?

  Pictures would help, but the model numbers you mentioned are for two different knives.

  Here is mine, purchased directly from Benchmade. But if possible, I would post a picture of yours as well for a better answer. As mine is just plain, nothing special about it.

  The 950-1401 is a dealer exclusive in s30v, so it may very well have different lettering on the box from the standard production box.

  Thanks, Gents. My box is the same as Artisan so your help has answered that question. Much appreciated!
