Default Lady Smith Model 60 vs Model 60?

Other than the wood grips and the "Lady Smith" engraving, what are the differences between these to revolvers? Assuming both are 5 round 357 with 2 1/8 barrels.

Thanks

Nothing aside from a good marketing strategy.

Lighter trigger pull, fancier carrying case, many came with additional
locks and the wood is very attractive for a modest price increase..

Doesn't the Ladysmith have more of a brushed finish over the standard model?

Default LadySmith Finish

Yes, both the Model 60 and Model 65 LadySmiths had a "frosted" finish; much like that given to the famed Model 686 CS-1 revolvers made for U.S. Customs.

I've got to admit, I have a 60-9, and my wife has the Lady Smith 60-9. We took them both to the range, and I shot both. I don't know why, but the Lady Smith shot circles around my 60-9.
