Apologies to all those who viewed the thread, apparently none of my pictures worked due to a mistake of mine with my photobucket account, they should all work now.

Yes she is pointy, but I've stabbed it into wood of several kinds to test the tip, didn't have any problems with bending or even dulling it. I was kinda worried it would be TOO thin and not be usable, Very glad that is not the case.
