Yes, Comp Finish was the same price as a coated blade, where it really fit was for the folks where bought the cheapest option (coated) with the intention of stripping the finish anyway. In effect the work was done for you (by virtue of not have been done in the first place) and the de-carb etc taken care of, in the case of the TGLBs they also got a zero edge convex sharpen as well. I don't see the extra value in Comp Finish beyond that (and I do REALLY like it to be honest). It SHOULD NOT practically command the prices you see, but that is the law of supply and demand. I wish I had more TGLBs in that finish than the one I do.
