I recently acquired one of the new Benchmade Griptilian models and I noticed it had a stonewashed finish. I went to a local dealer and saw several new models like the TSEK and the AFCK II with the oval hole, and I noticed the same finish on the knives. Does any one know why they've done this?

I myself am fond of my old model 800 AFCK, which to me is the best design ever put out by Benchmade, and I like the smooth satin finish of the earlier models.
