If I transmute by putting another skin on top of a Legendary weapon (so for example put a Destroyer skin on a Legendary weapon) will the result be considered Legendary for purposes of always retaining Best-in-Slot stats?

The reason I ask is that I dislike the skins of many Legendaries (dagger, in particular), but the always Best-in-Slot feature of the Legendary appeals to me.
