Someone may correct me if I'm wrong but the bone charcoal color case-hardening process actually creates a molecular bonding of the carbon molecules that produce the color to the steel, whereas the Parker Reproduction colors are more of a staining process which time and use has proven to easily flake off or wear off quickly.
