SERRATIONSThis massive upper has very deep & sharp 100% full serrations, in one part (9 mm) becoming shallow due to feeding wear. Surprising survival of serrations immedeately near the root where they bend slightly back towards the root - in most megs tho...se are missing. And this bend is a clear indication of an earlier type of megs (a couple of million years:)) - in it's own right. In professional terms - No damage to the base of the blade edges - a trait only seen in the best teeth. Tip is excellent.
ROOTMassive root is all natural in near 90% survival order (very rare for Indo teeth) with some pitting. Excellent detail and form, uniform brown colour. Solid, dense & stable.
BOURLETTEBourlette is all original - 80% survival surface.
BLADE ENAMELNo enamel peeling. A stable major hairline visible on both sides with no effect to stability.
BLADE COLOURWhat makes this one outstanding is it's rare ivory colour with volcanic ash flakes. At a certain angle you see silver and gold shades - absolutely unusual play of natural colours.
FEATURES & ANOMALIESIncredible color - might be the only one in the whole world:))
OVERALL CONDITIONVery good in our opinion. Very stable.
