It's a combination of the polishing wheel not reaching into the crevice and the dirty polishing compound accumulating there while polishing the rest of the blade.
should i re-post it?
It's already been moved.
You could try wiping out some of the compound residue with a cotton swab or something. Any remaining dullness from what I said about the polishing wheel not getting in at the factory you would have to try hand-polishing with metal polish and a cloth or a Dremel-type tool with a small polishing bit. But then you run the risk of creating swirls and scratches or mismatching the rest of the blade and you'd have to polish all that out too, which honestly I don't think going to that extent would even be worth it because you will never get it completely polished out anyway. It's just a byproduct of how the blade is ground and polished at the factory. All Cases will be like this.
