Discrepancies between RAVEN getKEGGModelForOrganism and BlastKOALA KO annotations

I used RAVEN getKEGGModelForOrganism to construct a draft metabolic model from KEGG . I also annotated the same protein sequences using BlastKOALA. However, several genes annotated as metabolic in RAVEN are not assigned KO numbers by BlastKOALA.

Are these tools using different annotation strategies (curated KEGG genome vs similarity-based KO assignment), and could this explain the discrepancy?
