Hey Red, I hadn't really noticed it before, in the picture the tip does seem to taper pretty abruptly, Is that what you are seeing? It doesn't really look that bad when you are looking at it "in person". The motto doesn't look bad either except for the umlauts. It may have been a real blank they used. Of course, it is totally bogus now! What really got me going was the use of a VERY obscure trademark! You really WANT it to be good when you see something like that Ultra RARE Eick Trademark, which could blind a Newbie to the other Flaws. 'Know what I mean! Like I said, I bought it mainly for a curiosity! Course, whoever made it may have been counting on that even if somebody noticed the other problems, huh? 3FL
