What is the “ stonewashed INFI blade finish”?

[Jason M D.]

Is it a coating or tumbled in a medium of some sort? How does it stack up against the Competition Finish?
Been off the forum for a while so I’ve missed out.
I looked back 10 pages but didn’t see a topic on it.

Thanks

It looks to be of a peened type finish that can take work/abuse and not show it.
I'm sure others will chime in too....

Stonewashed kind of implies it’s been through a tumbler or some such. Either way it’s super dope and I hope this finish is here to stay.

Thinking it’s something akin to my CR Sebenzas.

Stonewashed finish: A stonewashed finish refers to tumbling the blade in an abrasive material. This finish easily hides scratches, while also providing a less reflective nature than a brushed or satin finished blade.


I think this Stonewashed Infi, looks like a competition finish, that has been stonewashed.
