You stated..."The base Para 3 has always had a stonewashed finish" and I was simply pointing out that what you stated is not correct

To me, stonewashed looks mass-produced and cheap.

... and finish directly off the grinder not?
I mean - Stonewhash takes additional effort as the blades needs a finer finish than the 'satin' and then it must be sonewhashed / tumbled. Is it mass-produced? Absolutely (that is what Spyderco does). But it is not cheap (looking).
