Thanks, Karl, I appreciate it! The forging flaw doesn't bother me, I figure it's been ok for a couple hundred years that way so to me it's just part of this particular blade, is what it is. I would like to understand better how it happens because I know little of the forging process. I've seem them in the tang before too, and this one extends into the tang as well. Did Isaac Barber use a trade mark at one point? I'll have to search around for some examples.
