It looks to be factory laser etched engraving. A call to factory customer service with the serial number may tell you if it came that way originally; it could also be ordered after purchase.

I called..They were only able to give me the date of manufactuer 10-06-93.They stated "I am not able to verify the exact finish that it left the factory with".
