This Dexter S5198 looks different froms the one I see on their website. Is it the same one I could purchase from them directly?

there are several different s5198's there is a letter suffix that modifies it to determine what the handle composition is. There are also other models, such as the conneseuer line and several others that have different model numbers (such as the 5197 which is almost like a Japanese usaba).Dexter does not make these themselves, but markets and warrants them. There have been minor variations over the decades they have sold this as they move from mfgr to mfgr and as they themselves have modified their product slightly But 5198 is their most popular and most famous. Owned by many of the best chefs in the world including Julia and Jacquesremember, this is carbon steel and must be properly cared for there are several different s5198's there is a letter suffix that modifies it to determine what the handle composition is.

I believe it is. I purchased this to replace the same knife and found no difference.

Actually, it looks just like the one i use and it reverse linked to one that looks just like it when i did an internet search for your tv. I'll double check a little later tonight when im not typing on my phone :D

Hi Xander :) great choice on the Surge,it's my EDC and I love it,I also purchased it from Proto Sales as you appeared to do.they were excellent with me,the price was the best hands down (51 dollars cheaper than Home Depot etc).I asked them the same question and they werent sure,but yes I did recieve what is listed at the bottom of the page the 830278 updated model,the one in the picture is slightly different,you can watch videos on YouTube to see the differences,the old model was great and this one is even better! I sent and called Amazon and have been asking them to update the picture,hopefully they will and If your experience is like mine you will get the 830278,one way to tell is the old one had a diff. model #,you can try and email proto Sales if you want,but you should be allset,hope it works as well as it did for me and your new surge is very useful and enjoyable!

It looks like 6194-1 has a picture on it. That seems to be the only difference..and the price of course. We are very content with the 6316-1 model. Does the job just fine.

When I bought mine earlier last year, the knife sent to me was S30V. If anything, it's an upgrade from what is mentioned here.

I am sure the one I received was not the Salon Elite, it is the original, because the package is really different. Maybe the seller made a mistake or something else I don't know, I did not return it because I bought it for a gift to someone, and if return and purchase a new one, I do not have enough time to wait for the shipping, therefor I keep it, but don't mean I am fine with it.

Honestly, we weren't sure when we bought it either. We looked at the picture and it looked like our old one. We just searched for a Visio E series LED's 50 inch smart TV remote and this is what it came up with. Sorry I couldn't be any more specific.

Depends upon the model. In the past there were 2 models, the higher priced only had a removable stone. The new ones are all fixed. Try looking for Sur La Table The Petite Pizzeria LD-902SLT in Amazon as it looks like they must have bought the license and it seems identical to the old model bar colour. Haven't bought one myself yet but if it's the same as the old upper class model, it will be superb.

ok.. well it was the same rep apparantly.I will just open the 4104 and try it out.. If I don't like it, I will return it. thanks for your help. The thing is.. those comparisons you linked above are not the same as what is listed on the box. The tools have different names, and the "pet hair lifter' attached to the bottom of the machine is not listed on the site, but clearly states it on the box, and I played with it in the store so I know it has it.. I don't trust the comparisons.Oh well. Thanks

Dear Donna, I had a previous one for ten years which got lost in transit. I'm not sure if new one is same, but it looks and performs identically. Keep smiling!

These are extremely similar and may even be manufactured by the same company. It looks as if the only differences are the knobs for balancing and the main shaft looks like it has a different finish.

I compared the photo you sent with the one I purchased & everything looks exactly the same, even all the markings on the blade including the triangle markings. This is a well made knife & strong. I researched a site on YouTube before purchasing it. The AUS-8 steel is rated very good too. I was very happy with the purchase.

The entire top is synthetic leather, no real leather on their base models. To get a Dexter that is real leather starts around $110.

I ordered mine from Amazon. Mine is like the one pictured. Just compare numbers and you should get the right one.

If you look for (web) images of 795476 it appears to be non-existent or an obsolete part number. There are hundreds of images of the 795477 so my bet would be that is the one you would choose. And that jives with the part number referenced by the store you contacted. I think you're safe!

I just recd mine. It is a cheap replica of the original one that I bought at Home Depot. The Home Depot one is MUCH thicker metal. This one is very thin. I'd be lucky to get one season out of it. My Home Depot purchase lasted over 4 years. I was looking to replace it. It's shocking how identical this one LOOKS to the original. This is a 2 piece screw together design. The Home Depot purchase was one solid piece of metal that was pressed into a bowl with a stable base. This is more like a fancy bowl to put ice and some beers. I feel like I've been dooped. At least I can return it tomorrow. Too bad. I just recd mine. It is a cheap replica of the original one that I bought at Home Depot. The Home Depot one is MUCH thicker metal. This one is very thin.

Not a problem. When I was purchasing this item, it was 2199 at best buy and 1999 here, so go figure. Now it's reversed! Mine will finally get here tomorrow. Good luck with your television.
