matt surface

The sandblasted or glass bead blasted surface, like the satin-finished surface, is matt. Here, the knife is "shot" with beads by compressed air. The harder beads leave countless small dents. If light falls on the knife, it no longer reflects but is refracted and the material therefore appears matt. By the variation in the size of the beads, as well as the material, different surfaces can be created. Large pearls leave a rougher and darker surface. Small pearls, on the other hand, have an almost shiny matt surface. Because there is already a rougher finish, scratches and fingerprints are not as noticeable. The knife also needs more care here, as the larger surface means that some protection against corrosion is lost.
