Yeah he's calling it "soft-plastic" stage because he looked at the picture and thought the stamp sunk some of the metal around it in with it.

What's actually happened is they stamped the metal in the same way its done 8:30 mins into this video:

Then they've polished the blade on a soft buffing wheel, giving the logo a rounded out appearance. The buffing wheel had the same effect on the softer nickle parts of the pattern which abraded faster then the harder parts of the steel.

But yea, i guess it can be stamping into soft-plastic if you really want it to be.

Btw i like the logo rounded out like that, without it it starts to look really scratchy on the surface of the knife, pic related.
