<p>[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2440029, member: 1892"]Interesting. The plating process won't affect sharpness - electroplating is only molecules thick and not capable of changing the features. An incomplete/improper plating process could look like this. I'm not sufficiently expert on the topic of Buffs to opine whether a poor alloy mix could result in this look, and am interested in what the next posters have to say. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
