Edges and surfaces refined by hand for a smoother feel.
What it is
Hand finishing is the work a craftsperson does after machining, casting or forging to refine a part. It can include deburring, breaking sharp edges, adding chamfers, sanding, polishing and final inspection. Machines create the shape, while hand finishing shapes how it feels. The steps involved depend on the maker and the piece.
How it feels in your EDC
Hand-finished pieces often feel more comfortable in hand, with smoother edges and cleaner transitions between surfaces. Because a person does the work, each piece can show small, subtle differences, a sign of care rather than a flaw. Many collectors value hand finishing as the detail that separates a good piece from a great one.
Care & aging
Hand finishing itself needs no special care; how the piece ages depends on its material and surface finish. Softened edges and refined surfaces will gradually develop wear from daily carry like any other piece. Follow the care advice for the specific material and finish, and avoid aggressive polishing that could undo the maker's careful work.
是什么
手工精修（Hand finishing）是工匠在切削、铸造或锻造之后对零件做的修整工作，包括去毛刺、倒钝锐边、加倒角、打磨、抛光和最终检验。机器负责造型，手工精修决定手感。具体工序取决于品牌和作品。
上手感受
手工精修的作品握在手中往往更舒适，边缘更顺滑，面与面之间的过渡更干净。由于是人工完成，每件作品可能有细微差异，这是用心的标志而不是瑕疵。很多玩家认为，手工精修正是区分好作品和顶级作品的那个细节。
保养与老化
手工精修本身不需要特别保养，作品如何老化取决于材质和表面处理。修圆的边缘和精修过的表面会和其他作品一样，随日常携带逐渐出现磨损。请遵循对应材质和表面处理的保养建议，避免过度抛光，以免抹去品牌的细致工艺。
