It's not a common item... It's a real shame someone who didn't know what they were doing got to mess with it. It would have been nice to see how it was packaged initially. But yeah, I suppose this would get its trip across the giant wheel and then get the wire knocked off on a charnley before it went through other processes. Does anyone have a formal measurement of this thing anyway? If it is a true wedge and the geometry is not nuts, I suppose you could freehand it like a knife and leave it as is, though it might not be a lovely thing to shave with without any depression at that size.
