A Robeson Demonstrator with no markings?

I saw this Robeson on eBay listed as a Robeson Demonstrator. Unfortunatley, only one photo was posted. This is a red flag for me. The few examples of a Demonstrator I have seen had a tang stamp on the master blade of "Shuredge Demonstrator." I sent a message to the seller and he did not respond. I saw one other Demonstrator that sold on eBay back in August with no Demonstrator markings on it either. Did Robeson make a Demonstrator with no tang stamp (or any markings) to indicate it as a Demonstrator? If so, how do you identify the knife as a Demonstrator?

Most Robeson Demonstrator knives have pressure molded black composition handles, although I have a pearl handled one.

If there isn’t a ROBESON / DEMONSTRATOR stamp on one of those three blades, by definition, it cannot be a “demonstrator” and should not be called such.

Thanks Charlie! I didn't think there would be an unmarked Demonstrator. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something about them I didn't know. I rarely see a real Deomstrator for sale on eBay but they are always stamped Suredge Demonstrator. I would love to get my hands on one but they are scarce.
