The Satin finish on the far ring is an even matte finish. It is done with a scruffy wheel, so cannot be controlled in tight areas. The Bead Blast finish is a dark and dull finish. It contrasts nicely with polished. It is not as robust as Satin. The Peened finish is made with a ballpeen hammer then polished afterwards. It reflects facets of light and doesn't show abuse. The Brushed Ballpeen is also made with a ballpeen hammer, but it is brushed afterward to be less reflective.
