Ah. That just looks like regular ol' machine marks to me.Maybe they are machine marks, but near the ricasso on the bevel, parallel to the cutting edge, but just below the bevel transition from the flat to bevel.

I really wish I still had my pre '04 snake AD!!!View attachment 897098 Been carrying a folder more lately but when I fixed blade its my snakeskin active duty that Russ gifted me years ago. Would use it for anything that needed cut, would baton with it if need be. If I manage to aquire an ideal throwing board/stump it will definately get thrown as well. Love the AD and would like to hoard them $ome day.
Since I pocket carry my 340PD I carry a fixed blade 90% of the time, even for my daily office job. I belt carry a pistol a little more in the colder months when the folders see more action. I don't like changing that too much because of trained response/muscle memory and all that.
Truth be told, I have probably 30 fixed blades that see regular belt time, most are Busse but also some CPK, Zu and a Caswell I'm quite fond of.
My most recent addition is a BA3 that will be weekend and around the property carry.

Weekdays and around the office I mostly carry something along the lines of my Fogo de Chao or Key Lardo.
