Prefer Your Franklin-Christoph with a Polished or Un-polished Finish?

[RogerRamjet]

I currently have 8 F-C fountain pens (various 02s, 65s & 66s) and I use them in rotation except for one, which is always inked.   It is my Un-polished Model 66.

 

While at the Chicago Pen Show in 2019, I purchased a 66 with an un-polished finish (it is a Jonathan Brooks exclusive) and I really like the feel of the pen much more than the polished finish.  Yet, with the virtual shows and other "Stock Room" exclusives and pens, they are all with a polished finish.  I cannot wait to get to a pen show and check out the samples for hopefully another "un-polished" pen.

 

My question for the Board ... Am I the only one who really enjoys the un-polished finish?

I have four F-C's, all polished on the outside, some with a frosted inside (which would have been clear if polished). I haven't handled an unpolished pen so I can't really answer, but I'll make a point to try one at the next pen show I get to.

I don't have any unpolished FCs, but have many other pens with a matte finish - from vintage ebonites to modern brushed acrylics, ebonites and wood. I quite like the hand feel of some of these - especially the semi-matte ebonites, which have a unique warmth to them, but prefer my acrylics to be polished, if only to avoid the inevitable marks made oils and ink.
