Satin finish and a red comb from Sialkot
A satin finish is made by passing the blade over fine abrasive belts or brushes in one direction, leaving a soft sheen of parallel lines instead of a mirror. It is a practical choice for an EDC knife: everyday scratches blend into the grain rather than standing out as they would on a polished blade, and the 11 cm drop point keeps looking tidy for longer.
The rooster itself, with its bright red comb, is a moulded rubber inlay set into the 12 cm black metal handle and framed by the raised-dot grip. Combining abrasive finishing with coloured inlays is everyday work in Sialkot, where folding knives have been made for generations.
