I dunno... that looks like signs of cell rot. Can you post a picture of the scales for us to see? Also, if you have any other straights, keep this one quarantined from them, just in case, or they'll end up looking the same way!
Edit: Also take a look at this thread (click me) and read Glen's (gssixgun) advice on one method to test for cell rot.Last edited by crouton976; 03-26-2014 at 05:32 PM.

Pits galore apparently.
Hopefully, they won't affect the edge.

Yeah, I'd say.
I'd also say that's a sure case of cell rot... I'd quarantine that one from your others if you have any to keep them from looking the same. I'd also remove and replace the scales immediately. After that, you should be fine to add it in with the rest of your collection."Willpower and Dedication are good words," Roland remarked, "There's a bad one, though, that means the same thing.
