i just ordered a rosewood swiss champ

the pics show the inlaid cross as we all are familiar with

the new version has a stamped cross-ie no metal inlay

when did this start?
and
anyone know for certain why?- i can guess but just wondered if anyone actually has inside info-i presuem cost saving either workmanship or destruction of rosewood in the process (which tends to be brittle)

i wonder if this is a trend to being to save costs as i see more and more models with stamped and inked crosses in addition to the traditional metal inlay

update the pics actually show an inked on silver logo-and
fwiw my version has no pen and no pin-really cool knife however
