Also i don't want to have another stress time, waiting to see if the knife was received to the factory in Ibach and then to wait to receive it back.

That area with the pattern missing is separate of the sharpened slope. Is this true? If so, I think you may want to contact them to ask for an eventual another replacement.
The part missing the etching lines looks quite uniform. I assume that something was covering that part when the acid that makes the lines visible was used, maybe a holder. Or, maybe that bit got polished accidentaly and the lines were removed.
Marios, did you sent it to the Greek reseller or directly to the factory? Also, what was the course of action you followed?
