Found some MAAS today I thought it was a white paste, this stuff is pink. Anyhow I got a good deal of gunk off the blade and monkey tail, that I didn't realize was so long. This is the first straight that arrived when I started buying a few. It was filthy and cruddy and I had nothing to work it with so it went in the drawer. I used to be an oblique tip but the re-scale job was to short and I'm thinking they broke off the tip, easy fix. There is a bit of hone wear and it has an uneven edge... boy do I have some work to do

Well I did buy this so I had something to work on...
